Very very dirty

The dirty and nastiest room I've ever seen at a hotel. We didn't stay the night at the hotel. There were guys with no shirts hanging out in front of their rooms smoking marijuana. We turned in our key and didn't get a refund.

It was affordable and average. Wasn't expecting anything fancy, and didn't get anything fancy in return. Was a bit sad the continental breakfast has been discontinued permanently and this was not updated on Expedia. Room did smell pretty strongly of weed so if you have a weak nose be aware.

Overall we were happy with our stay. But I did find it strange and inconvenient that we had to leave a $50 cash deposit upon checking in and had to have a room inspection before checking out to get the deposit back.
