“I didnt stay.”
+I didn't stay there. They wanted to charge me 25.00 for my service dog. Which is not to be charged so I didn't stay. I asked them to refund the money that I had paid. The refund has not showed up on my account yet.
−They could not try and rob me for my money.

“Not safe to stay here!”
+The lobby looks clean and welcoming-don’t let that fool you!
−Windows broken with hole and glass in room on ground floor, no batteries in smoke alarms, air conditioning not working, many wires exposed, so humid and hot in rooms that smell bad. Took one step in to see all this and turned around, did not stay here!

“See above.”
+Okay.few choices
−Poor carpet-needs to be replaced. Needs painting and a huge update. Old stuff. More water came out of the faucet than sprinkler head when showering.

−A/C in the room didnt work. Smoke Detector wires were hanging from the ceiling. Found someone's dirty clothing throwed in the corner of the room.

“Never Again”
−Room was not cleaned. Bed was made but when blankets were pulled back, there were food crumbs and public hair on sheets. Carpet stained and pool was empty and not in service. We were moved to a different room that was marginally cleaner.

“if I could leave a negative star rating, I would.”
+checking in was easy, but i wish i had never checked in. we totally got catfished by the photos on the website. they are from probably 20 years ago. this hotel was on the top 5 of our "worst places i have ever slept" list. i should have taken pictures, but i didnt want my phone to get infected with anything. all of the things that would normally be on a wall in a hotel were ripped out, because the room had obviously been broken into a couple of times. the carpet was gross, we found hair in our sheets. we couldnt wait to leave the next morning.
−i should have known we were in for a wild ride when the former gas station in the same parking lot was no longer a gas station and now a seedy thrift store. pool? no, windows boarded up with cardboard. and windows on the exterior of the hotel, cardboard as well. couldnt imagine that there would have been breakfast served, but you couldnt pay me to eat it. it is one of the only times i slept with my loaded gun next to me on my night stand.
