Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The sheets were starched but stained dirty. There were two sad little pillows on my king bed. There were three towels in the bathroom - a washcloth, a towel to stand on, and a thin small bath towel. The paint was peeling off the walls and someone had used toilet paper to plug the peephole in the front door. I literally only stayed because theres a no refund policy and I was exhausted after a very long day of driving and didn't have the fortitude to change locations. I slept on top of the covers on my picnic blanket. I would not recommend.
