Room could’ve been more clean. Hallway carpet dirty. Switched room because sink didn’t work. New room sink and fridge didn’t work. Domestic fight in next room woke us up in the middle of the night. Called front desk and it didn’t sound like anyone came to room.

This might have been the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in. When we got into our first room for the night the carpets and furniture were all stained and looked like they hadn't been properly cleaned in a long time. The moment I went into the bathroom there were 3 roaches on the wall. We requested a different room as it was late and we had been driving all day. The second room was just as dirty all over. We were nervous about sitting or sleeping anywhere. We did finally fall asleep and to our surprise we had bedbug bites around our legs when we woke up

Slept well but room was in bad shape
The shower curtain rod was broken, the toilet was leaking, the carpet was stained and the tv didn’t work. Bed was fine, the AC worked good and the front desk were courteous but that place needs a lot of updating

Uncomfortable
I felt uncomfortable due to the nationality of the workers being from Middle East. They kept talking to each other in their muslem labguage and lookjng at menin a way that made me uncomfortable and unwelcomed. The hotel was under construction. They left door open all night which made me feel unsafe. And iverall I couldnt sleep much during the night. There was no hot water and they had no regular coffee to make in the room. Only an over abundance of decaf.

All in all the stay was simply a place to lay our head. They did not have much for a continental breakfast due to the fact that the whole hotel was under construction if you’re staying here, I would strongly suggest asking if the construction is complete or not. staff was friendly And apologetic in the moment for the construction

I’ve stayed at this hotel several times prior to this particular stay and haven’t had any issues. However, this stay made me never want to book a room here again. First, the room was filled with fruit flies. Second, the carpet was so dirty it would turn the soles of your feet black if you walked barefoot. Lastly, there were mystery stains all over the walls and furniture. Also, the bed didn’t have a headboard but instead had 2 foam pieces.
