Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Aside from the room smelling like dog piss, staff here is very unprofessional in handling situations when in comes to customer satisfaction, proper etiquette & lack thereof in regards to communication skills. This place is a joke of a hotel and is a low budget hole in the wall place full of bottom feeding delinquent hobos, aspiring "street pharmacists" and 24-7 activity by fellow patrons. Gee, makes you wonder why, doesn't it? Hmmmm? Smh. Never again. Lesson learned so RENTER BEWARE! You get what you pay for with this cesspool of a so-called 'Budget' inn of a hotel or whatever it really is. If I could truly rate this horrible place with what it is really worth I would have voted negative in Star rating. More like a -4. Don't stay here. Trust me when I say this because my two daughters, fiancee and myself have truly experienced this firsthand!
