Worse than expected
One of the worst hotels I’ve ever been in. The dirty dark hallways was the first sign that we should be concerned. Then the room had some sort of splatter stains on the bathroom walls, the toilet seat was worn out, and the pillows were so yellow stained I couldn’t even use them without being grossed out. I sat on the bed and it fell off the frame. We didn’t expect much with the low cost but this was worse than expected.

Will not be back
Won’t be back. The whole place seemed to be falling apart. Lights flickered, ice machine broken, hot tub closed, smelled like stale cigarettes in the stairs. Things in the bathroom were falling apart. The drawer where the extra pillow was stored had dead bugs in it. We barely slept, nothing about this place was good or comfortable.
