G A, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Floor in the bathroom was black with dirt, sheets were dingy with spots on them and the pillow cases, mold in the shower, toilet had stains, remote had no battery cover and tv didn't work,
Roy, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Front desk guy tried to charge me again after I already paid, we get to the room and the sheets are filthy. They are covered in stains and red liquids. The soaps were the smallest I’d ever seen. The drink cups were unwrapped and just sitting in the bathroom. I did not feel comfortable using them. All night there were kids running around, which appeared to belong to the staff.

The hotel was horrible upon arrival the hotel smelled like cigarettes! Hotel room was horrible had no bathroom mirrors tub was dirty as hellll! asked for a refund & was charged twice . they money hungry as hell will argue you down about your money.
tyshera, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room was dirty. The linoleum floors had something black that ruined my wife’s white socks. The white towels and wash rags had black in them. The whole building had a cigarette odor. We got two nasty towels and wash rags, no hand towels, no shampoo, one tiny bar of soap and the white shower floor was covered in a black stain. Nasty is the only way to describe this place.

2/10 Poor

The dirty bathroom towels stained, terrible smell in the room, serviceless elevator, lots of noise, very limited breakfast.
Vania, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Our experience at this hotel was absolutely HORRIBLE. Checking in took way too long. When we got inside of the room there was dirty underwear in the draws. The shower was dirty. The couch had a horrible smell to it. There was paper on the floor and the room smell like cigarettes. My husband and I are non-smoking. We did not stay overnight. We turned in our room key last night and drove back home. We were still charged for the night even thought we did not stay.
Cynthia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst Hotel

Actually the nastiest place I have ever seen, we got there and immediately left after stepping in the room. Bed had black stains, stairway was so disgusting, hallway smelled terrible. Don’t stay here..

ReKeyda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The only complaint I have is that when I went to breakfast at 7:30 am, there wasn’t any food. It had been cooked but was all gone when we went down. Good staff so I didn’t say anything figured they got rushed right before we got down there. I’d stay again.
Caleb, 1-night trip

Not in the nicest neighborhoods. But overall quiet. Staff was awesome. Pool was dirty. Food was ok.
Mike, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Pro: directly across from the airport. Cons: shady people hanging outside of hotel at all times of the night/day. Rooms are outdated. Refrig needed defrosting...couldn't put anything inside due to ice buildup. View from backside windows is a junk yard or abandoned garage with junk cars.
MARVIN E, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

Loud kids running up and down the hallway screaming and yelling ppl in the parking lot sitting in lawn chairs ladies walking around asking for drugs
