This might have been the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in. When we got into our first room for the night the carpets and furniture were all stained and looked like they hadn't been properly cleaned in a long time. The moment I went into the bathroom there were 3 roaches on the wall. We requested a different room as it was late and we had been driving all day. The second room was just as dirty all over. We were nervous about sitting or sleeping anywhere. We did finally fall asleep and to our surprise we had bedbug bites around our legs when we woke up

Uncomfortable
I felt uncomfortable due to the nationality of the workers being from Middle East. They kept talking to each other in their muslem labguage and lookjng at menin a way that made me uncomfortable and unwelcomed. The hotel was under construction. They left door open all night which made me feel unsafe. And iverall I couldnt sleep much during the night. There was no hot water and they had no regular coffee to make in the room. Only an over abundance of decaf.
