The roof near the entrance was torn apart, smelled like smoke and just dirty smelling. There was a man yelling for his children down the hall as they escaped at 1 in the morning. The parking lot was dirty with trash.

The hotel needs major updates. It screams they don't clean. The hallways had the same piece of paper for 2 days. No one decided to pick it up. A faint smell. When our room was cleaned trash was removed but the bed covers were just pushed up to the pillows. The comfort of the bed was good. The TV remote control barely worked. Bathroom didn't feel clean and the workers were looking at us like we were ghosts. It was ok for a weekend stay just to sleep. I won't return.

On the bright side, staff were very friendly. Building seems to be in disrepair. No ceiling on overhead area where you park to check in with electrical wires hanging within reach. Our room was missing outlet cover, candy wrappers on floor, coffee maker missing tray to hold coffee (so couldn't be used) and we came across a roach in the bathroom. Alside from that, great stay.

We drove through the parking lot. Saw a drug deal and a motel that is rotting away. Paper over some windows. We had a truck full of my items that were going to have to stay in truck overnight. Did not feel safe leaving the truck in the lot. Did not check in. Went elsewhere. Lost the $, but it is so inaccurately displayed on Expedia, I don’t think I will use Expedia again

This place should have been condemned and torn down years ago. This place is a dumpster that is meant for Methany and Haroldoin, not travelers visiting family. The manager and his wife are the most miserable people ever. His wife looks like she’s one vacuuming away from offing herself with the cord. Their idea of “breakfast” is old stale cereal, waffle mix that is 3/4 oil and moldy old fruit. The toilet in my room had a big glob of blood and a clot at the base. Nobody came to clean it for three days. I didn’t use my bathroom for 72 hours, choosing to walk to the fast food place and do my business. I showered at the gym. Luckily I bring my own sheets and blankets/pillows everywhere I travel because Methany and Haroldoin left stains. I had no choice but to stay as this website refused to refund me. Thanks Expedia. You truly are some greedy MFs to keep renting this landfill out to people.
