This place was DISQUSTING! The room was not clean at all. There was a towel hanging from the door when we walked in. The bed was unmade and clearly slept in before we checked in. The trash was not taken out and lights were left on. The check in process was terrible since we had to call the guy 3 times to even tell us where our key was. We didn’t even end up staying here because it felt like a health hazard.

Staff tried to put us in a room with a queen bed when we prepaid for a king. They did move us. This is an older hotel so don’t expect much.
