Awful!!

Everything was fine until almost 3am. Someone was blasting weird music right outside of our window, they were singing along at the top of their lungs. It was almost 3am and it woke myself and my 10 year old daughter up. Our entire room smelled like marijuana. Do not recommend staying here.

Awful service

The bed had hair in it, and both the sheets and comforter were stained. I asked for new sheets and a new comforter. New sheets were provided after a short delay. I was refused a new comforter because, as I was told, there were no extras. Keep in mind that this hotel seemed virtually vacant. Rather than be given a different room (or even a comforter from a different room), I slept with only a set of sheets. The man working the counter seemed cold and indifferent. I would not stay here again.

Not good.

Hotel was in poor condition. There was a security deposit that I was not informed of until check in. The mini fridge had water on the shelves. The shower was barely working. I’d say you get what you pay for, but that would be generous.
