This was the worst hotel ever . It smelled horrible. The phones in the room didn’t work, the room smell like dog urine The towels were old, hard and small the bed. The toilets overflowed. No breakfast was served horrible !!! Never stay at this hotel!!No maid service after 5. No clean linen provided for the pullout sofa. The pillows were small.the mattress had lint balls. I was give Zep spray to tone down the smell of urine. The front desk clerk showed no empathy!! He stated he couldn’t give me a new room because the hotel was full for that night! All in all it is the worst hotel ever

They need to fix the ice machines, room phones, alarm clocks. Clean the carpet’s immediately, and fix the gaping hole in the ceiling dripping water into a mop bucket.

The first room I checked into the room had not been cleaned and the towels were on the floor and chair, along with the bed not being made. The second room was better - but be prepared to wipe down the handles and desk area. There was a dead stinkbug on the curtain and no hair dryer in room. You could smell folks were smoking weed in the evening, and there is a small non-disruptive homeless camp in the forested area behind the hotel. The side of the bed that was nearest the door was like sleeping in a pit - I had to turn the mattress around to sleep flatly. Definitely a good price point, the staff were amazing and I felt safe.
