4/10 Fair

Disappointed and disgusting

The staff was nice. The rooms were in poor condition. Beat up, hair everywhere (hanging from the side of the tub, all over the floors, and all over the walls), carpets were stained and dirty, and dead bugs everywhere. The drywall in the room was coming down from the ceiling, the carpet was torn and heavily stained. It appeared as if the maid changed the sheets and left the room. You could see greasy finger prints all over the room, dead bugs in the lights, and the walls were heavily beat up. I wouldn’t stay here again.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

AMANDA, 1-night trip

The staff at the desk were super friendly and helpful. The cleaning staff needs to pay more attention when cleaning the rooms. There was old food behind the tv unit and the bathroom could have been cleaned better.
