Nothing like the pictures. Checked in and went up to our room. It was filthy, lampshades missing, the bathroom was gross with smears of toothpaste on the walls. The smoke detector was also beeping every min indicating the batteries needed to be changed. We went to the front desk and asked if someone could replace the smoke detector battery so i didnt have to listen to it beep all night long. The woman at the desk said there was nobody to change batteries. She pointed at my boyfriend and said hes tall just remove the batteries. I also asked for an extra pillow since there was only 2 for our king sized bed and was told they dont give out extra pillows. We got back to the room and my boyfriend removed the smoke detector batteries and realized it was an expired smoke detector from 2006...not very safe especially in a large hotel not sure who to report it to but will contact the fire marshall for guidance.

I didn’t have any issues, but this is not the kind of hotel you expect from a Ramada. It needs a major facelift, from the rusty signs, potholes in the parking lot, tattered flags, chipped and worn furniture, etc. Looks like it was probably really nice at one time, but that time was probably 1987.

HORRIBLE DO NOT STAY HERE

This is the absolute worst hotel we have ever stayed at. The place was very unkept and run down. If it was not 1 am when we stopped here, we would have left, but we need to sleep since we were in the road all day. We had 2 very young kids with us, and I was embarrassed I even brought them here. The pictures are nothing like the hotel what so ever. One of our beds had a burn hole in the sheets, the furniture was broken, blood in the wall, wire holding up the shower curtain rod, and the list goes on. I would never recommend any one to stay here especially if you have a family. Here are actual photos of the hotel.

I would not stay here again as part of the perk of staying was an included breakfast. The staff had vice like control over dishing/serving and was not very nice while serving. Eggs were so runny and unappealing that putting ketchup on the turned them to chunky soup

Ghetto Ramada

This place is extremely low quality, outdated and very neglected. Everything about this place screams no investment, low standards, low quality and a complete lack of care. Lobby, elevator & hallways - Outdated and neglected in every way possible. Room - Blood stains on duvet, one bath towel, one hand towel and washcloth, insufficient and cheap brand toiletries, old and peeling décor and carpeting throughout, evidence of current and past water damage, carpet saturated in water by AC, unusable power sockets, no coffee maker, no ice bag in bucket, insufficient towels, cigarette burns on bath. It didn't appear uncleaned but also didn't appear thorough. There's a skeleton staff of family members as employees and they live on property. Breakfast - Self service was not permitted, which we've never seen or experienced ever before, and required to get a breakfast coupon from reception. A staff member grabs everything because the area is blocked off. Extremely limited offerings (3) and we saw nothing beyond sugar filled carbs. Not even a yogurt, fruit or at least one alternative option, so we didn't bother beyond (requesting) coffee. Overall, this franchisee has spent $0 on improvements, staffing, operations or essentially anything. There's only certain reasons to stay here, either the price or its location.
