There were broken things everywhere and roaches all over the room. I didn’t stay here and was promised a refund that they’re now saying I cannot receive. It was completely awful. I would never recommend anyone to stay here.

Did not even make it to the room. The place was so trashed up that i felt like it was a drug motel instead of a place to sleep. Trash everywhere in the halls along with lots of random furniture sketchy employees roaming in and out of rooms smoking. I stayed in bad places before and i didnt even feel safe to stay here.

Property is a train wreck. Police raided the place the hour that I was there. I had to pay a stranger to take me out of the neighborhood because Uber & Lyft wouldn't come get me there.

Reservation was for 1 king non-smoking room. When we walked into the hallway to head to the room. There was a steong smell of smoke. The door to the room was ajar when we arrived to the room it was 2 small beds and the smell of smoke was even stronger in the room, which was very suprising as when we entered the building the stinch of smoke was sonstromg and the room was worse. I went to theboffice to report the issues and requsted a refund. Still awaiting a refund to card.

Awful, stinks, do not stay!
Terrible hotel- do not stay! We arrived, and had booked 2 rooms. we received one room that was already occupied and then when we went back to the desk, they gave us a key to a new room that didn’t work! In my particular room, there was a giant bug dead next to the toilet and holes in the wall. This place looks like a drug den. It’s old and smells like cigarettes as well. I felt very unsafe and I was traveling with an 80lbs German Sheppard. I wouldn’t even subject her to these conditions. To top it off, when we arrived there were about 10 police cars surrounding the area. After 10 hours of driving cross country- would highly not recommend. When we tried to cx our room because of the conditions, they refused to refund us. I’m out almost 200 dollars for this. I wouldn’t even stay here if I only had to spend 10 dollars a room.

There is nothing I liked. Junk vehicles in parking spaces, trash, anyone in the world could walk into the place...no "key" card needed to enter. Transients of questionable character seemed to be living there. Seemed to be more dogs living there than people. Deadbolt on room door didn't work, no smoke detector, holes in the wall, dirty room. No cups, toiletries or toilet paper in room. Room smelled like greasy cooking, mattress had depressions in it and no bedspreads just thin blankets wit burn holes in them. Despite the signs, people would routinely smoke in the hallways. Room was never cleaned or restocked even once during my 6 night stay. They didn't even provide coffee in the morning. "The "Blue Wave Inn" is by far the absolute worst place I have ever stayed in my life.

If you are a non-smoker this motel is not for you. Hallways and rooms are like ashtrays. First room I was provided with had 2 tp holders ripped from wall and no toilet paper, plus the window unit did not work - at all. Second room did not have clean floor and smelled. It was so unsanitary that I didn't feel comfortable enough to lay on top of bed to just sleep. I left to stay at Holiday Inn Express about a block over.

Second to worst hotel stay ever. Bed was ok. Sheets were threadbare, rusty bathroom appliances, broken shower knob, ripped lampshade, broken curtains, brown water out of shower at first. It all felt a little shady. I’m pretty tolerant typically. Still slept fine.

Our room was absolutely nothing like the pictures. The curtains were broken and wouldn't close, there was spackle all over the walls and the door frame looked like the door had been kicked in and repaired. We went to the front desk and they sid they'd give us a better room. The "better room" was even worse. The light switches did not work. We had to use the flashlights on our phones to find a lamp. The curtains again were broken. The worst part, though, was there was not extra door lock. The part on the door was missing. The regular door lock was literally electrical taped back onto the door. We took our keys back and left. We asked Expedia for a refund, but were denied by bith Expedia and the hotel because they have a no refunds under any circumstances policy. I have never left a hotel like that before in my life. It was truly an awful experience!
