We were in a first floor room. In order to plug anything in,I had to move a dresser. Every wall was chipped. And/or rusted. We asked for more towels. Front desk said ask housekeepers.. housekeepers said as front desk. The bath towel was no bigger than a cloth diaper. And we never got anymore.

Property was clean, but rooms were a bit run down. AC/Heat was not working properly and was obnoxiously loud when used. There was no water pressure. Staff was asked not to disturb and the knocking on the door started at 10am on a 3 day stay.

If you can stay away from this property please do. First off the tub looked very filthy. The toilet bowl looks very disgusting with yellow stains inside of it. The sheet had a burnt hole on it. The pictures must be at least 15 years old. Room number 105 did not look anything like the picture.

This place is great for fugitives on the run who would like to lay low. At best the rooms are worth $50 or less ONLY to cover you from outside elements! The outside appearance is deceitful. The paint was peeling from the walls, ac/heat was loud with a small wastebasket beneath and bathroom water did not come through the shower. There was no rest in this space , just clock watching until morning. The front desk agent was also very rude and unhelpful. Avoid this place at all cost. When I asked the rep why I was given that room he pretended not to understand English . Waste of any type of money. Expedia should be ashamed to offer this on site . I’d like a 100 percent refund !

Decently priced, convenient location. Their lobby/sitting area had a sign asking us not to sit on their furniture. A place to sleep but didn’t feel terribly welcomed.
