Cheap hotel, but still not good value
You get what you pay for. Cheap hotel, but having cigarette burins in the sheets was a surprise… thought we were booking a no smoking room… the TV was not working either, but I didn’t bother asking the staff to see if there was a solution.

This was the worst place we have ever stayed. Can not believe Expedia books for them. We made reservations several months in advance. Drove 12 hrs to get there, to be told they didn’t have our rooms. That the people before us stayed over. Ended up being up into rooms that were no where near what we paid for. I had to take pics to believe what we walked into. The walls didn’t meet the ceiling and the tiles of the ceiling looked like they were bout to fall in. The bathroom was even worse. And to top it all of there were roaches everywhere. Like I said I have pics.

Terrible place
As soon as I parked to check in, there was 4 cop cars, there was a situation that cops were looking for a person, multiple ppl from different rooms were involved, only reason I know is because after I checked in, got my keycard, I was put literally next to the situation room. I overheard it all. Besides that, the place was disguesting, smelled moldy, dust everywhere, in the bathroom the drywall/paint was falling off which probably explains the mold smell. The towels were Terrible, left your skin with a bunch of lint. I’ll never touch these hotels ever again.

This was the worst place I’ve ever stayed at. When we checked in the front desk clerk couldn’t be bothered to stop talking to on her cell phone.The entire property is poorly maintained. We were greeted by not one but two dying roaches. The towels are so thin as to be non existent and the room was hot and stuffy.

DO NOT STAY HERE. stayed here for two days for the Taylor Swift concert and immediately the staff was so rude. They told me that they never got paid from Expedia, which was a lie so she charged me twice. the rooms reeked of Pine-Sol to the point where it would make you seriously nauseous. There was weird goo on the wall and cockroaches in the bathroom, and I do have video. the sink in the bathroom didn’t drain and the toilet would randomly stop flushing. The worst of it all was the smell of Pine-sol. It was so humid in the room and smelled like a basement. I had chest congestion for a week after staying there. Still trying to get it figured out to get my money back from being charged twice. It almost seems like the front desk was looking to make extra money claiming that Expedia never paid them.

We booked a room 2 months in advance. Arrive to check in and they state that the room has been canceled, but it was still showing on the expedia app as booked. I asked the owner who was checking us in if there were any other rooms available (tswift was in town and limited lodging available) and he stated he had to see if anyone canceled. he then told me yes they had a room, but it would be double the price we originally booked for. 10 hours from home with nowhere else to stay, we agreed to the room even if they wouldn’t give us the original price. a minute later i got a notification on expedia that our reservation had been canceled. the whole situation was suspicious. other than that, the room had clean linen. but walls are paper thin and not the nicest part of town.
