Old and run down

The staff was pleasant, and the lobby was covered in a giant plant. My room was filthy, run down and smelled. The bright light that was in the room would get covered up by the cutrains when you closed them. Only one light worked in the bathroom and the wall was stained all over except where pictures USED to hang. I got 2 rought, dingy bath towels and a ducted tape window in the bathroom. The price was half of what others charged, but still being that cheap was not worth the horror that awaited. I wish I could give negative stars I would.

Terrible Hotel

Pros: None.
Cons: WiFi connection. Room Utilities.
Unless you have no choice, otherwise never stay in this hotel. Many things not working in the room. Bathroom heater not working. No hair dryer. House keeper not even bother to replace shampoo. Many light switches not working. WiFi not working. They charge extra $ if you use credit card to pay for the room bill. Very disappointing.

Clean & comfortable but a bit shabby around the edges.

The room appeared to be clean and tidy enough but overall the hotel is in need of some refurbishment. The railing to our second floor room was rusted and loose, paint around the window sill and bathroom tile was sloppy (could have been easily and quickly done while paint was wet) and one of the two flourescent light bulbs was out in the bathroom of both rooms we rented.
