The front door to the building is hanging open, so it does not feel very secure or safe. When I walked by the lobby at midnight and again early in the morning, there was nobody there to view visitors. The room was okay. The bathroom floor was very sticky - I put towels down so I didn't have to walk on it.

towels were stained and looked like they have never been replaced... no turn down service for multiple night stay. Toilet lid would not stay up as it hit the countertop that is pulled away from the wall. Soiled towels were left in the hallway for multiple days. Would NOT recommend a stay here.

The first room we were given, had mold on the ceiling in the bathroom from a leak. Then we were given another room where the ceiling was actually leaking from the upstairs room and the water in the shower was warm at best.

Staff was courteous, room was clean. Only issue was 2 barking dogs in the next room one morning - the couple left their animals alone(!). I finally called the front desk and it was handled within a few minutes.

Staff was rude, the room was filthy and not cleaned during our stay. The bathroom was dirty and the bathtub was unsafe falling through the floor. The hotel was not worth the money. The front door to the hotel was broken.

The whole hotel had an odd smell, kinda musty and there was a full trash can on our floor that was not taken out the 2 days we stayed there. There was mold in the shower and our room had an unsettling smell as well. The staff was very nice and helpful when our room key did no work multiple times throughout our stay. Honestly would not stay here again.
