It was clean enough and the bed was comfortable but the bathroom sink did not drain well, the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall and the shower curtain was not right so water was going all over the bathroom floor

The front desk worker was great! Unfortunately, the carpets outside of my room were dirty (the flooring inside my room was nice), there was at least one person camping in the back parking lot, and the doors were not sealed very well which made it really noisy (though the AC fan worked well to cover up much of the noise). For the price, it's not bad, but also not great.

At first I thought this will be ok because I got a great rate, but then I walked in to the lobby to the smell of marijuana, that coupled with the attendant who saw me while she was out in a smoke break, decided I could wait another 20-minutes while she argued on her phone and had a couple more Cigarettes. When I finally made it to my room I realized very few updates to this property have been made in the last 10 years and while they say it’s non-smoking, that’s clearly not true. This is the worse hotel experience I’ve ever had. Expedia you let me down by even allowing this as an option!

I get that times are tough and financial resources are limited. And the staff were nice people- it just felt like they spent more time posting signs about why things didn’t work than fixing the problems
