First of all my reservations were made the 7th of October for 24th and 25th October for my son's wedding. I reserved handicap bottom floor for my husband COPD. Can not walk up stairs. The man told me no rooms available on floor ground no king size non smoking. So, he had a double bed smoking on bottom floor so I said ok. So, we went and looked ac did not work and toliet was full of someone else waste 🙃 nasty. I went back to the check in and told him how nasty it was. I told him again I have had reservations since 7th. He's wife came out and i could not understand anything they were taking about. He gave me a king size non smoking handicap room finally. The room was nasty.

First room had roaches and a lot of wall damage and shower fawcet was loose in the wall. Not cleaned well. Second room we got after a night in the first room was better. Still not really clean but no roaches and less damage. The stairs and walk way were very dirty and trash like cigerettes laying all over.

1st Time Stay

My stay was fine, since I only stayed 1 night. I appreciate the facility being pet friendly and the parking was fine, the facility was also next to several eateries which was convenient. It however really needs updating examples; 1. Baseboarding was separated from the wall in a few areas, 2. The shower curtains need updating ( in my room) they were tattered and shower rod barely hanging on the wall, 3. I saw what looked to be mold in the ceiling of bathroom, 4. Bed linen needs updating. All in all they stay was still do-able for what I needed and maybe an option should I need a room quickly.

We were in 108 forest ms. We lifted the direct tv box and roaches fell out. The bathroom had hair all behind the door wall and floor the sheets on the bed was just remade not replaced the worst stay I ever had and I will tell anyone. I can for a special visit to see my mother from Texas and it was the worse stay I should have just booked the holiday inn. I will never make this mistake again. We had to go by blankets and air freshener and disinfectant spray I already paid for the room and I didn’t have xtra to get another hotel so I had to stay here three nights in this.
