Dwayne Allen

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel photos on the website were old. I was placed in an adjoining room as solo traveler on the 1st floor. The desk attendant announced my room number while some stranger stood behind me. I did not feel safe. The room was dirty - carpet stains, sagging bed, desk chair had stains. I sat on a bath towel to keep from getting dirty. I did not stay there, I searched for a new hotel and checked out.
