Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
There is no phone in the room. The toilet was broken. The furniture in the room was covered in stains. The floor looked like it hadn't been swept. No bathroom fan. Towels are a color between white and off yellow. The beds are well broken in and squeaky. Water stains on the ceiling. Loud neighbors all night. The parking lot had garbage blowing around. The breakfast yogurt was 2 weeks expired.

Was clean enough, had all the requisite things BUT. - outside door was drafty, all of the ammenities felt like they came from a yard sale, all appliances were plugged into extension cords AND you had to choose because there werent enough. Place was clean - but honestly i doubt it would pass an inspection. Including the shower curtain rod was detached at both ends. I thing only friction was holding it up. I took photos then did not touch it.

The "non-smoking" room, to which I was confined to, reeked of millions of hours of tobacco smoking - the stench was unbearable so I could not sleep. The furniture is broken and unclean.

The room was disgusting it looked like someone pissed all over the bed the couch was ripped and dirty. They switched me rooms that had two beds this time and same thing one bed was gross and the other one was okay and the staff said at least there is two beds so you can sleep in the clean one. There was people up all night and it was raunchy sounded like someone was knocking on my door all night. Do not stay at this hotel it's the biggest dive ever and costs more then it should.
