My carpeted floor was wet the entire stay. I had to walk with shoes on the whole time. My toilet seat was loose, it barely flushed. There were water stains in the ceiling in the bathroom. And my mini fridge was DIRTY. There was a brown spillage that was stuck all over the botto of the fridge.

The room was very dirty, dust all over in the vents and on the headboards, there was a hole in the wall. The TV had vertical lines going through it and needed replaced. The bed was very noisy just sitting on it. There was water damage on the ceiling in the shower. There was a hole in the wall wall, and the room smelled horrible.

Man out front for hours with his huge dog. Seem to be know the lady working at the front desk. Dog slobbered all over my 78 year old mother. Should have people just hanging out in front of the hotel.
