Really regret booking this place - we just needed a quick cheap 1 night stay before a flight. It’s was disgusting! Even the stairs outside leading up to the room smelt bad. The room wasn’t properly cleaned, the bedding was either terribly stained or dirty, the bathroom was nasty, we didn’t even want our feet to touch the floor, the room had a terrible musty/moldy smell, the outside of the hotel was not clean either (and not in a good part of town), people were heard all night long right outside our room and within other rooms, it’s was extremely loud and we did not sleep much. I would absolutely never stay here again and wanted to leave a review to help others avoid this place as well!

We booked two rooms for 5 people total—the listing said one bed and one pull-out couch per room. Upon arrival, neither room had a couch. Staff suggested we would be comped for an additional room for the fifth person, but we were charged for it. Bonus: Our room had bloodstains, and our friends’ room had mold. Really would not book here ever again.

The hotel manager tried to scheme an extra $50. Off me. The sheets were dirty and there was sand in between my sheets. Enough that I could physically see and feel it on my body. I had to take a shower immediately! But don’t expect an opinion of having warm water. The choices are either ice cold or scolding hot water…that’s it! The internet doesn’t work either even though they have internet and a password…it just doesn’t work. But you can buy it for extra 7.00 every hr you’re there. This place sucks ass..don’t go. Pay the extra money because it’s worth it not to stay there.

I expected it to be bad for how cheap it was but this was the nastiest room ive ever stayed in. Smelled like mold. Blood stains on sheets. The roof was leaking making the bathroom floor all wet. Nobody in the office either.

They required a $50 additional room deposit on top of my pre-paid room. They said it would be refunded. The room was left in perfectly good condition, and the room key was returned to the desk. I was there for a single night and out more than an hour before checkout. A week later I am still fighting to get my deposit back.

We were given a very dirty room. We opened up the bed and there was a lot of hair and cigarette burns all over the sheets. The floor also had a lot of crumbs and hair on it. The shower floor was questionable, and all the sheets and linens were very poorly folded. We asked for a new room that did have cleaner beds and we stayed there, but in the morning there was no hot water and the shower was backing up so much it almost overflowed. It’s not worth saving a couple of extra dollars. When we asked the manager about the conditions of the rooms he said that we should have checked the beds and water right away and that we should expect such conditions from a two star hotel. He did not give us a refund for the second night we had planned to stay there. We changed to The Viking Hotel down the street, which was a few dollars more and MUCH cleaner.The outside of the motel was in disrepair as well.
