7/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)
this hotel was a last-minute book, and I would never again. although the staff was nice the hotel looked like it was thrown together with spare parts. the first room had a dirty bathroom the toilet had a ring around the bowl, hair in the sing and the tub was filthy. the room I switched to has a room door that didn't touch the ground, so you heard everything that was going on in the hallway. also, I'm not sure if people live there but there was a smell of cat urine in the hallway. thankffully it was only 1 night.

Hotel is old. I can see that they are trying. So that’s why I give them a 3 rating. But there was no hairdryer, and come on some kind of curtains on the window would have been nice. Yep it did have a shade, but I was on the first floor and you pull shade. It is very dark in the middle of the day would’ve liked some sunshine.. Checked out at 8 AM and what you consider breakfast was a joke. There was a handful of granola bars and a couple pieces of white bread. No tables no chairs. I don’t even know if there was coffee? sure did not see any juices. But the heater/air was quite enough. So if you just need to go and sleep and get up and leave it did its job.
