Air conditioning knob broken. Some holes in the walls. Dust inside the water tank of coffee maker. Owner was in a sleeping bag on the floor when I went to breakfast.
Wasn’t told when breakfast was available, 1st room not cleaned(dirty sheets, stains everywhere and food still in the fridge) second room not much better stains and dirty everything sticky and gross noisy air conditioner. We were too exhausted to try to get a different room again. Staff didn’t seem happy when we arrived or wanting a clean room. Very disappointed and this had 800 good reviews! Was the reviews real?
The room was in bad need of some freshening up. The breakfast is a joke. Stale cereal and instant oatmeal. You get what you pay for. The bathtub had cracks in it, and the bed was not very comfortable. Staff was okay. The lady who checked us in was very nice but the guy that was there during checkout acted like we were bothering him.
Their rooms are nasty they have roaches crawling everywhere the bathroom wasn't clean looked like black nastiness all over the walls in the shower and hair everywhere

At first glance the room was ok. The entire building not bad. Get to our room and open it up and it’s definitely well used but still not bad. Go to the bathroom and you can tell the sink nor the shower had been clean in at least a couple weeks. The towels were dingy and stained like they were only washed in water no soap. The floors I will say were clean. Though hey it’s just a few hours we were super tired. We drove up to attend my son’s graduation from AU. Pulled back the sheets on Ohhhh Em Geeeee!!! Tell me why it was filled with dirt and some kind of cheesy chip or cracker crumbs. The sheets felt grimy. I was over it. When I told the guy at front desk he just looked at me and smiled. Like wth is funny that’s nasty. Disgusting!!! Do better for your paying guests!!!
The worst hotel/motel I have ever stayed in. Pictures are not of the room. Maybe 20 years ago. No it water in shower. I would have never taken a bath here. The AC/heater didn’t even come on. At all. WiFi kept cutting out and telling me wrong password even though it accepted it multiple times before. Caulking was discolored and gross. Floor seemed to have a film over it. Either not cleaned or cleaned with dirty stuff. Will never ever stay again. Not recommended. My parents also rented separate room. Their AC/heat worked 2 of 3 nights. Took 10 minutes to get hot water to the shower. The rest of the room matched my description. Breakfast - they did have an area. They did have food. Nothing great but wasn’t awful. Just not impressed at all.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Cons: Room was less than ideal for the price. It was dirty and in need of some maintenance. Broken glass under the bed, blood or other substance on the lamp shades, hand prints on the window, Luke warm water for showers, mold and mildew in the bath rooms.
Pro: close to Auburn for game day.
The room had a heavy smell of fabrize in order to cover the real smell. The beds are very old and uncomfortable and the sheets had stains on them. The water for the shower was lukewarm. You can see light around the door to the outside.
