First sign was when my husband was handed the TV remote at check-in. Then there's signs for extra fees for this and that posted every where. The room itself had a strong bleach smell and slightly dirty. The bed spread had cigarette burns in it and there was a cigarette smashed into the peep hole. I couldn't stay due to respiratory issues after entering for 5 minutes and was only able to get half of my money back.
