Smell & filth

The hotel was so dirty, I left less than an hour after I arrived. When I opened the door entering the room for the first time the cigarette smell was so strong that i immediately turned around and took my clothes back to the car so they wouldn’t stink. I did not feel safe. There’s no way I would have gotten any sleep in the filth and smell. When I turned in my keys to the front desk less than an hour after checking in, the front desk didn’t even question me about leaving. I’m guessing because this happens often. Hotel.com should not sell this property.

This place should be condemned. Division of Hotels and Restaurants should and probably will be called on this place. Front door had a 3/4 inch gap from the floor. The bed had only a fitted sheet and stained,cigarette burned cover. The floor needed a scrubbing. The towel bar in the bathroom was replaced with a piece of wire. The bathroom door looked like ithad multiple holes that were patched over with spackle. Most of theelectrical outlets were missing face plates. I could go on, but I will finish by saying I felt so unsafe that I semi-slept with my gun next to me. I chevked out the next day. I could go on but why bother?

Do NOT stay here!!!

Front desk guy was professional, but the room was absolutely the worst ever (see pictures). The room had bugs and MAJOR issues, from sink detaching from counter to large cracks/holes in he wall. It also smelled like smoke, had many people smoking outside their rooms, and people’s personal items outside of rooms.

Needed a place close to the airport that didn't break the bank. Horrible choice and could not cancel. I choose it last minute, my mistake. The floors were so dirty our feet were black. Dirty yellow couch. Felt to creepy to sit on. The bedspread and sheets are black. Probably because it doesn't show grime. Only 2 pillows. The toilet and shower were clean but the base of the toilet was disgusting Lots of construction going on. Felt unsafe. My skin is still crawling!

We pulled in and the clerk said he gave our rooms away and was very smug about it. Said he wasn’t going to refund us - because we booked on Expedia. It felt very much like a scam. We asked where we should go (it’s 10pm) he said “good luck” and continued to smoke
