I usually don’t leave reviews but we stayed 5/3/25 and this hotel was not as expected. Rooms were very dirty ( dirty refrigerator, dusty, sticky substance on end table ), the lights didn’t work ( only had 1 table lamp and mirror light in bathroom ) and shower wasn’t even a shower ( there was no way make the shower part turn on, shower was dirty also ). The only part that was decent was the bed was comfortable but yet the comforter blanket had stains all over it. We booked 3 rooms and each room was filthy and we will never stay at Super 8 again
