The room smelled terrible, so I left as quickly as I could. I had to find another place, which felt like a complete waste of money. The bed was uncomfortable, and the sheets looked dirty.

Arielle

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The smell was atrocious all around the place. They left used soaps and shampoo and didn't eben bother to provide unused ones. The bedding was horrendous. It was loud all through the night with the staff making no effort to control the noise. Cops showed up one of my nights. But honestly, the smell was so rank, it may have been the most insulting part of my whole stay.

This place was beyond terrible. The front desk clerk was outside smoking when we got there. The room was at the farthest end of the hotel and there was maybe ten cars there so intentionally making it inconvenient. The room door was broken and the room was filthy!!!!!! We couldn’t get a refund and leave because we purchased from a third party.
