Yes Lord
It sucks. It said they had breakfast and they didn’t even have coffee. The air conditioner sounded like a dying cat. It smelled like Copenhagen spit and broken dreams in the room. The only redeeming quality it had was you can flush the toilet with your foot.

The worst hotel in america
I can't even describe in words how disgusting this place is. It's the worst hotel in america. The whole place smells like urine and feces and cigarettes mixed. There are bugs in the rooms. Every single surface is dirty including the beds. The owners should be ashamed of themselves.

The lobby was not air conditioned; it was hot. The room was very basic, no hair dryer (even thought the description said they had them). I told the person at registration that I had to leave at 5:00 am and asked about checkout procedures. He said to bring the key and they’d provide the paperwork. I waited 10 min. No one came to the front desk. They had 2 buzzers- I’m not sure if they worked. The room had candy wrappers on the floor. The bathroom was in disrepair and the locked on the door were not very secure. Way overpriced for the low quality of the room.

Was advertised as being updated/remodeled- it was definitely was not. It was filthy- mold in the bathroom, tub didn’t drain, plumbing for the toilet was not done correctly (the whole thing moved when flushed) sink vanity falling apart, carpet falling apart and filthy, no coffeemaker in the room, alarm clock didn’t work, not enough towels for all the guests. The pictures on the site do not match the hotel we were at.

Front desk clerk was rude when registering. Seeing the only access to the second floor was stairs, I asked about a 1st floor room since I am physically challenged. he said I needed to request that when I made the reservation and told me I could cancel and find another place to stay. All smoking rooms were on the 1st floor, so the 2nd floor always smelled like cigarettes smoke. Only 1 light worked in the bathroom and the fan did not work. The furniture was stained and had holes from cigarette burns. The electric outlet in the bathroom would not hold a plug. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

This property is disgusting. The smell as soon as you walk in is like walking into a wall of fecal matter and cigarettes. The room smelled HEAVILY of moth balls and something worse underneath that I can't really describe. There were cigarette burns on the comforter. The carpet had been burned with a clothes iron. The bathroom door didn't shut all the way, no matter the pressure used on it. There was no fan or window in the bathroom. And the tub drained so slowly that you are better off just taking a bath. The tv displayed an info border on it before every commercial which was weird but not that big a deal. Also the other guests were mainly people actively on drugs. Basically if you can sleep behind a dumpster instead of renting a room, do that, since it'll be cheaper and a little nicer than this place. But seriously, find somewhere else to stay if you can.

Disgusting, gross, filthy, rude.
Disgusting. I walked into the lobby to hear the man behind the counter shouting at a guest. Garbage left in the hallways including a mattress box. The breakfast was gross. On the day of my departure the same man behind counter pounded on my room door and told me to get out 30min before a check out time of 11:00 am. Avoid this place at all cost.

Pic and reviews don't do the "unsatisfaction" justice. Very old building, creaking walls, cracked floors and can feel the floor flexing under our feet. Glad it was only overnight, although I didn't sleep well due to concern over the condition of the room.
