4/10 Poor

Simply listing facts: The lobby was surprisingly nice. Both evening staff and morning staff were semi-asleep at the desk. Both were respectful. The room (117) door weatherstripping was mostly missing. Allowing air & outside noise easily thru. Huge stain on the chair. Bathroom door would not latch. The tub/shower was wornout. Looks like it may have been painted previously. Ample supply of tp! Walls did not stop hearing the man snoring in the adjacent room. Ceiling did not stop hearing footsteps above. Beds were hard. No boxspring. With the exception of the stain on the chair, the room & linens appeared to be clean, just in poor shape. The continental breakfast was sparse. All-in-all I got what I paid for.
Continental breakfast. There were two dry cereal dispensers too the left, a beverage cooler and waffle maker to the right.
Hard mattress. No box spring.

The room's condition was, unfortunately, less than ideal. The pillowcases had blood stains, and there were cigarette burns in various locations bed, toliet, table etc. There was a bug on the bed possibly a flea, and the room was generally unclean. The smell was quite unpleasant, like something decaying. This was all within minutes of us being in the room. We asked for a refund immediately. Thankfully, the staff members were friendly. We did receive a refund. It would be wise to consider alternative accommodations.

Thankfully was only for 1 night

Staff was friendly. The room was hot when i got in, the ac wasnt putting out cold air, maybe cool air. No main lights, had 3 lamps, 1 had no bulb. Bathroom light took about 15 minutes to come on...The bed was about as hard as the floor. When i sat down, it didnt move. Pillows were big blobs, head went right to the bed when i laid down.

Upon first impressions with the staff when checking in, they were extreme nice and welcoming. The room, had it issues. I first noticed that the light in the bathroom turned on after flipping the switch about 7-8 time (on average). One of the lamps didn't have a bulb in it, base board around air conditioning unit was pulling away from the wall, TV failed to connect to the hotel wifi limiting watch options. A couple of the hand towels where clearly passed the use date. They were noticeably dingy in colors and needed to meet the trash.

The staff was super kind and check in my reservation was for a smoking room, so I dropped my bags and came back later. Didn’t think I needed to look for ashtrays, or to see exactly where the fire alarms were positioned, which it did not matter because anywhere in the room I smoked the fire alarm went off each and every time so I had to fan it with one of their very then towels…. I’m sure I inconvenienced everyone around me and just think I had to go to Walmart and buy a three dollar ashtray because there were none in the room and I only had 2 cups so I couldn’t do a makeshift one other than that great!!!
