The rooms are all roach infested, the furniture is disgustingly filthy, the air conditioning didn't work in the 1st 2 rooms, there were hairs in the sheets in 2 rooms and the T.V. had to be fixed in the 3rd room. One of the large towels was folded so that you couldnt see until you opened it that one side was stained black. This place should not be rented by anyone ever and should be removed from Expedia and all legitimate booking sites. I never complain, but this place is ridiculous.

The room that I was put in had bed bugs and when I brought it to the attention of the staff all they did was say sorry they didn't offer a discount they didn't offer a refund nothing I would like to request a refund. They're also were tons of cockroaches the floors were dirty the bathroom looked like it had recently flooded sheets look like they hadn't been cleaned in months the blanket was actually a curtain. When I first arrived the manager came outside as I was getting things out of my truck and asked me what I was doing there. Someone got hit with a hammer in the head one of the nights.
Here you can see an adult bed bug
Another adult bed bug
This is the heater slash air conditioner the filter and inside the filter on the cooling fins of the machine look like they hadn't been cleaned ever

Absolutely dirty and disgusting, roaches were everywhere inside and the water pressure wasn’t working at all and no hot water. The pictures posted for this hotel are misleading and look nothing like the real thing. If I could give no stars I would. Never coming here again or recommending to anyone.
