The front desk staff was friendly, kind, and soft-spoken, but things went downhill from there. The property was very, very dirty. The bedding and bathroom appeared to be clean, but the floors were gross and sticky. Something that looked like soda had been spilled on the nightstand (and the phone and lamp sitting on it), which was left to dry and not cleaned by the staff. The carpeting both in the room and in the hallways was old, run-down, stained, and mildew-ridden. There was an unpleasant smell throughout the building. We checked back out shortly after checking in and did not stay the night.
