When we pulled up there were two homeless people begging for money and it is in a rough looking part of town. The hotel was dated and dirty. The mattress looked like it was at least 20 years old and was lumpy and lopsided. There was stains and hair on the mattress. We immediately asked for a refund after checking in. The girl at the front desk was very pleasant and immediately refunded our money without even asking why, because she knew….

We stayed here for one night from 7-8 April 2024. The toilet was not working. Housekeeping came to fix it but did not succeed and in the process somehow took the door to the room off its hinges. (He had stuck something in it to jam it open while he went back and forth). Neither the door nor the toilet was ever properly fixed. They gave me a plunger to use. It was cold so I turned on the heater. Black soot flew out of it and I quickly turned it off. The TV did not work and the Internet was poor. We slept ok despite noises from neighbouring rooms. We asked Expedia to request a partial refund based on our experience. The management refused.

This property is extremely dated, dirty, smoke smelling. It comes across as a local residence for homeless and addicts. The vibe upon entry is enough to turn most away. Not recommend for a family or a get away. Just a bed and roof over your head. Door security latch broken, phone broken, bathroom door handle fell off, rusty toilet paper holder. Would suggest some security presence to help provide some re-assurance that it’s safer than it appears. Questionable if this property meets Econ Lodge standards. Should have read the reviews prior to booking.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!! RUN!! To start the outside was dirty, and we had to go through a crowd of homeless people that were living against the side of the building in the parking lot to get inside. Inside the lobby was dirty. We got to our room and it was literally CRAWLING with Roaches and Bedbugs!! They were not only under the mattress, but swarming the walls, doors and hallways!! I have never seen anything like it! We immediately went back to the desk and told them we are not staying there and wanted our money back. The man behind the counter gave no argument but said I would need to get my refund from Expedia. As I was speaking to him another lady arrived from out of town to get her refund that she has been chasing as well. This place should be shut down.
