Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Worst hotel I have EVER stayed in. When I pulled up I thought it was closed or abandoned! Dirty, cigarette holes in bedspread, apparent drug addicts hanging around, smell of urine in halls, I went to kill a roach by the a/C & 6 other roaches came out. Shower water VERY hard to regulate! If my wife was with me I would have kept on going even if it was paid for” I am going to sleep BUT putting things against the door to make a noise if someone tries to come in. I hope my car is there in the morning!!!

It was awful. There was roaches in the room. People outside all around the parking lot. There was bullet holes in the walls. It did not seem like a safe place to stay. I was scared that I would not have a car when I woke up the next morning. I left there and got another hotel room for the night.

It is a horrible place full of roaches and the water will freeze you one minute and burn you the next. If you reserve a room and choose to pay at the property they will run your card in attempt to charge you before you ever arrive. Crooks!!
