If they send you to the rooms in the back, over the bridge, they reek of marijuana. The homeless in the area have access to that side of the hotel where you can see them inside the building getting ice in their buckets. My pillows reeked of cigarette smoke and the hotel carp[ets from the hallway and in the bedrooms are very outdated, dirty, old. It was all pretty gross. What you see in the picture under the Hotels.com website is NOT what the hotel looks like in reality.

I should have known “pet friendly” I wasn’t going to get a clean room but finding a dry dog or cat poop inside the room under the table did it for me. Do not stay here!
