I checked in on a Friday and stayed for eight nights. My room was not cleaned and sheets were never changed, even when requested. Had to ask for towels and the trash removal daily. The manager came one evening to clean because the toilet had black stuff growing in it. Really needs an update and someone to check the service given.

AVOID! The conditions of the rooms in this Sleep Inn were absolutely vile. Right after check-in, I went to my room, opened the door and was immediately hit with the strong stench of mildew. It only took me two minutes to find a whole host of other completely disgusting conditions. There were stained along the sides of the bed, body hair in the bed, the tissues in the bathroom were completely wet due to mildew, and the shower was COVERED in mold. I couldn't believe it. I immediately left and told reception of the conditions, and she sent me to another room and ensured it would be better. That room had the same exact issues. Just absolutely disgusting, there was so way I could stay there and feel comfortable or safe. So I got a refund and left, 10 minutes after arriving. There are so many other low-budget places to stay in the area, do not waste your time and risk your HEALTH staying at this Stay Inn.
