Room had a very strong smell of smoke, sheets had stains, comforters were ripped, floor was dirty, there was a hole in the wall, and the TV flickered on and off and did not work. There were people in the office trying to get refunds on their rooms. Need I say more…

Stinky and not clean

It was not a great stay. Checkin was smooth but once in the room it was awful. Barley took a step in and it smelled VERY bad. It smelled like 10 dogs had been locked in there. There was even claw marks in the drywall. Went to talk to front desk and he said it was a dog friendly hotel and didn’t really care about our concern. Said no other rooms available. Didn’t even offer anything for the smell. We then had to go back to him and ask for toilet paper because there was none. We didn’t even have towels in the room. We also didn’t have a trash can. It was clearly not cleaned properly. There was even dog hair still on the floor. I get being pet friendly but have proper cleaning products for this. The smell and clueless was absolutely awful. On top of this the attendant seemed annoyed by our is asking for the literal bare minimum. Photo of the dog claw marks in the wall next to the bed.

The only thing I liked was that it was a short stay. Sheets were dirty with cigarette burns, room smelled like nothing but cigarettes, bathroom door would not stay closed or lock, they left 1 bath towel for a 4 person stay, 1 roll of toilet paper. Definitely not worth what we paid! First and last time here.

It was convenient to MSU and good price. But people should know it is pet and smoke friendly. Our first room reeked of smoke and we had to change it.
