The front desk barely spoke English so it was tough. He ran my credit card at least 20 times and said it's a bad card which wasn't true because I he just used that same card an hour prior to pay for the room online. He wanted another card and I said I don't have one obviously the card readers bad and he laughed and said ok.

Worn out hotel in much need of updating. Made to come back after coming 2 hrs early, instead of allowing me to check in because they were busy cleaning rooms. Hotel receptionist was short, not friendly and outgoing. Mant areas in need of improvement.

The pictures are all a lie. This place is a disaster and has bed bugs. I literally considered just sleeping in my car, but it was so seemingly dangerous that I suffered through but I got out of there as quickly as possible.

The room was humid so the carpet and towels were damp the entire stay. The bathroom toilet needs to have the chain fixed as it would run if u didn’t fix it yourself. The tub needs to either have a mat or rough strips put in so you don’t slip. I stayed at this hotel in the past they had continental breakfast. Now all they have is coffee, juice, bread for toast and cereal. They used to have waffles, hard boiled eggs, danish and bagels. Not sure what changed so I won’t be going back in the future. Needs to be updated. The overall stay was ok
