Had to cancel my plans, but it happened too late for me to cancel and get a refund
do not come here! The service is terrible with the manager scamming people out on a deposit cash only. The rooms have broken windows and a broken tv too! The shower are filthy and bedding too
front desk clerk was horrible. Rude. Condescending. Accusatory. Refused to give info on owner or manager. Refused to provide assistance. Rooms are dated. Tv zip tied to the wall. The worst hotel we have ever been in.
This was such a terrible property, but all these highway hotels are being bought up by the Patel families. They buy these properties and allow them to be destroyed by the guests or by lack of maintenance. Many people don't talk about this part. But it is absolutely true.
The towels were disgusting and all had stains on them. The parking lot had so many pot holes, it was like driving in Baghdad as you anticipated an IED. The bedspread was miserable and I threw it on the floor to be far away from it. I actually thought about showing in my Jeep because of the black mold in the bathroom.
Do yourself a favor, spend triple the money and go to a place run by Americans that want to give you a nice stay for the night!
This place is a sad shell and not worth $95.
The property that I saw looked nothing like the property that was listed on Expedia for booking I asked for a refund, and I got an argument from the gentleman who said he was the manager. I’m still waiting. The room had a dirty bedspread, and the bed looked barely made. There was storage items leaning up against the walls, open sockets a light with out the cover and exposed outlet hanging from the ceiling above the bed the shower was filthy. I reported to Expedia because they told me it was a paid property and all refunds are processed through the facility. The manager didn’t want to listen to me or hear anything. He screamed at me and told me to get out so I did.
This property should NOT be opened. It is a health hazard. The whole place is moldy, stains, door locks not working. This is equivalent to side of road bathroom. That isn’t fair to Abilene
Had to wait a front desk to get key for 20 min. Not the room I reserved. Asked for deposit that wasn't mention. Didn't get to check in until 8pm check out was at 11. They knocked on door before 1030 and stood outside my door the whole time waiting for me to leave, bed was leaning to one side noticably not just a little. LOCK didn't even work man I had to get screwdriver and tape I happened to have to secure the room at all..didn't have real high expectations but this was pretty bad.. i have stayed in a lot of hotels, of all kinds seen some rough ones, this is the first negative review I have EVER written.. im not one to complain but the checkout experience after not feeling like door was secure was biggest thing. Just the lock open with card, no latch or chain lock, also adjoining door I side was same way. With any effort next door guests could have entered at anytime
Qwner is rude I paid 100 dollars deposit I left a day early and left it cleaner than when I moved in I when I asked will the 100 be back in my account in a few days he just pointed to some sign on the window I didn't bother reading by the look on his face I know I wasn't getting it back
