    Nice

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Room had a weird smell and the towels were dingy

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Moldy bathtub. Dirty floors. Seemingly ancient building. And that's all somehow, to me, excusable, however, the road noise from the highway all night was UNBEARABLE. That mixed with the super lumpy mattress and pillows, I was unable to sleep at all.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Room did not have adequate air conditioner and none of the hotel keys would work. Front desk had to open my door with a real key and said he would have to let me in every time I needed in my room.

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    Strange experience. When I went to check in, the manager said the room had been cancelled earlier in the week, due to a plumbing problem. Fortunately, a room was available, so we had a place to stay. But I wasn't told the reservation had been cancelled earlier. On top of that, they demanded a credit card payment, even though I had prepaid through Hotels.com. The manager said I had to contact Hotels.com for a refund. I asked why they wouldn't do that for us. Didn't they tell Hotels.com that it had been cancelled? Strange

    Worst hotel ever

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    The walls were dingy, the towels left in the room were dingy and hard, my dog has better towels at home. The AC kept shutting off all night causing the temperature to fluctuate the whole time. The blankets felt like curtains, and one of the bedframes made a loud sound when you'd sit down on it. The faucet water was almost in a slimy state and could have made someone sick. The walls did not keep the sound of passing traffic out. Would not recommend.

    This is the nastiest, most disgusting hotel I have ever step foot in. I had checked in and sat in the room for less than 5 mins and went to the check out counter and demanded a refund and checked out of the hotel.

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    2nd: they said they did have rooms and would honor what our quoted rate was, which was a good thing. 3rd: room appeared clean, but the one pillow and bed looked like someone had laided down on it, the sheets and bedspreads had cigarette burn holes and the floor wasnt swept. 4th: the a/c dial to regulate the temp was broken. I had to use my fingernail to get the temp to turn colder. 5th: advertisement stated had a continental breakfast, but when I went down to get coffee, was told by the clerk they dont offer any. 6th: the clerk was sleeping when I came to get coffee and was back to sleep when we went to check out.

  • Engine customer Jun 2025

    I reserved 2 Queen beds & got 2to the room & only 2 full size beds. Refrigerator was broken also microwave was dirty & old. Horribly uncomfortable weekend.

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Room was clean. However needs update and repair. Stairs need cleaning. Lobby was locked, had to check in and out through window. Surrounding wasn't very inviting.

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Dirty

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    The room was terrible. Walked in and there was a dead roach on the floor. Floor was dirty. Couldn’t figure out how to turn on the lights. The light switch turned on the microwave! You could see daylight thru the door jam, the door didn’t feel secure when shut and the peep hole was just an empty hole. There was no way we could stay. This room and property looked nothing like the photos. We checked out as soon as we found a different room.
