Room was an absolute dump, disgusting as it gets from top to bottom, and the staff being rude was the cherry on top. Staff was the ‘I don’t take my AirPods out while you’re talking’ type of rude. So I thought $75 would be acceptable for a quick 6 hours and keep driving on Rt 90 after a Bills Game…yeah right, if that’s your option I’d spend the $10 at a gas station to caffeine up and keep driving. $75 isn’t worth feeling dirtier and itchier than when you walked in. State walked in they’d be shut down in 20 minutes. Save your hard earned money.

If you need an affordable place to sleep overnight while traveling point A to point B, this is your place. Get breakfast and coffee elsewhere.

This hotel is not a place to take a family to for a stay. This place is geared toward a single traveler or like-minded travelers who are not picky about being around beat up furniture and dirty grout in the bathroom. The room did fulfill my conditions: the three Ss-sleep, shower and shave. It was economical for my budget. It beats sleeping out in the cold.

Full of weed smell all over the building. Ripped carpets in elevator. Mold in the bathroom. Holes in the bathroom wall. TV was flickering all the time. Worst hotel I’ve ever been to. This hotel should be rebuilt.

if you want somewhere to rest your head for one night while traveling somewhere else, this will get the job done. Otherwise... the sticker price kinda tells you all you need to know. Some greatest hits of my stay include: -literally EVERYWHERE smells like cigarettes -staff was fine (didn't really experience the rudeness other reviews mention) but took like 10 minutes to check me in -door took forever to recognize the key card and open -toilet didn't flush properly -the two lamps on either side of the bed are not plugged in and are also nowhere near any outlets. Were they just for decorative purpose? -bar that holds shower curtain was falling off -wifi did not work the entire time I was there -when I went down for breakfast (5 minutes after the stated start time for breakfast) nothing was set up. There was an employee sitting in one of the booths on his phone who started to set things up when he saw I was standing at the entrance, but I was in a hurry so decided to just leave with no breakfast.
