Absolutely the worst hotel ever. Our booked room not available - "upgraded" to smoking room. Holes in bedspread. Burn marks in bathroom. Disgusting. Did not stay there. Want refund immediately!!!!!!!!!!!
- 3/5
This facility is very dated and in need of upgrades and repairs, and offers no amenities, reflective of the low cost vs several chains in the area. Easy, convenient walking distance from Proctors Theatre. Easy check-in, friendly staff, ample parking.

Beware of this hotel if your travelling as a family area is not safe. Hotel is the worst in my 10 yrs of booking in hotels.com this is the worst! The dirtiest hotel ive ever seen. Theres a bunch of mcdonalds garbage in the elevator and vandalism in the elevator. Dirt all over the elevator. Receptionist is nowhere to found. Smell of marijuana and cigarette all over. Inside the room is spot of blood in the carpet. Dirty carpet never been cleaned. Spot of blood in the bedsheet! Smell of cigarettes and marijuana even in the room! its like you went to a haunted house!!!! We left and run never stayed and hotels.com refunded only half of what we paid for this crap! Such a waste of night. We check in to another hotel almost 5am because of this mess!!!!!!! Worst experience ever!!!!

Jacuzzi was dirty I bought my own cleaning supplies, carpet made my feet black, found a couple different bugs throughout the room, one was in the covers and red and has me scared it’s a bedbug. So much dust and dirt and grime on surfaces and behind tables etc, handprints and stains on walls, hallway smelled horribly

We canceled our resrvations after viewing two different rooms at this property. It had stains on the floor and stains on the sheets. Graffiti was carved into the elevator doors and walls. Unaccompanied young children (under 10) freely walked in and the doors like it was their residence. There were broken down cars in the parking lot. The area did not feel safe at all.

The owner was very rude and mean. He would not honor our room reservation that was made through Expedia. He kicked myself and my three teenagers out of the lobby at midnight saying he no longer had a room for us. Thank goodness Expedia reimbursed me but save your time. Do not book here!

Next to park w lots of homeless people, loud kids on bikes/scooters late into eve, def feels sketchy pulling into the lot. My fiancée made us check out and go somewhere else she felt so strongly. We paid and left. Learn from this if you will. I was willing to tough it out but totally agree w her. There’s other options only slightly more $ in the heart of downtown also pet friendly.

The pictures need to be updated. This hotel is a dump. So dirty that I don’t even think the bedbugs would live in it. I was scared when I entered it. The parking lot had garbage all over it. Come to find out this hotel is being used as a homeless shelter!! Drug deals were going down in the parking lot as we sat in the car trying to figure out another hotel. I was extremely disappointed in this hotel. We were in for a family wedding and almost didn’t have a place to stay!! Do not book this hotel at all!!

Smoke and Pot smell. Mold on the ceiling. Characters hanging around. We checked in and then left this hotel and moved to a different hotel. They still charged us. I felt very unsafe with my family. I am an avid business traveler but I have never felt this way. Terrible and unsafe place for anyone.
- 5/5
Was right on time for check in which only took about 5 minutes. Requested roll away and in no time here it was.

Stay was fine, room comfortable, older but seemed clean, until morning when I clicked on bathroom light and there was a roach climbing wall next sink. Also, found one in the electric ground fault outlet next to sink. Really hate to write this review because even though this was an older motel, it looked like there was care in trying to revive it.

This property was in definite need of repair and smelled worse than any hotel I have ever stayed in. The elevator was out and the only “good” rooms, according to the desk clerk, were on the 3rd floor. Expedia should not allow it to be in their list. We paid $177 for the worst room ever.

Ron at the desk was friendly helpful and responsive. The room served our purpose for one night. There was a violent incident in the lobby which happened 15 minutes after I left the area. Danny, the second person I met during my brief visit to the lobby earlier had been punched in the face and the police were attending to him. The glass enclosure had been broken, the furniture was toppled over, magazines scattetered all over. Very scary.

Unfortunately we did not stay. Pulled up to parking lot and the place looked dumpy. Read more reviews and was not comfortable going inside. Honestly it looked like a pay by the hour hotel. We booked the Hampton Inn
