Don’t stay here. The hotel is in a bad part of town. The rooms smelled like mold, tobacco and other substances that are illicit…The room was so dirty and disgusting as well as the whole hotel. I checked in and checked right out and want my money back. Luckily I did the deposit with cash and was able to get it back right away. DO NOT STAY HERE. Expedia you need to do better.

The road was neglected, the staff that checked me in was so rude, no water to brush and shower for like 8hrs with no pre notice. How can a hotel not have on-site manager, the hotel is so old, with poor management.

Hell nah... Terrible area of town, broken elevator buttons, shower in room did not work. Receptionist was very courteous, although she was new and inexperienced. I checked in and immediately checked out and went elsewhere. Avoid the headache and book elsewhere. The 1 star is for the amazing receptionist, the facility would receive 0 stars if possible.
