The room I stayed in had mold around the windows--a lot of it. The heater didn't work. The carpet was badly stained. The tub/shower had nothing to prevent slipping, or to hold on to if you lost your balance. The bathroom was generally discusting. The attendant seemed to pretent that he didn't understand English. The worst place I've ever stayed,... More

Forget the big sign on the front of the building-it's never applicable! Had to telepone the place to even raise a live person! Ridiculous! More

I have stayed here many times over the past year for work, and the experience has always been a very enjoyable one.

Thank you for your comments. We do have handicapped facilities in our hotel. In October we went through a renovation of our rooms and all of the rooms were painted, new carpet, furniture and new Serta beds were installed. We hope you will come back and give us another opportunity to be of service to you. More

First of all, it was the least expensive hotel in the area at $105!! The room was supposed to be non-smoking but when I went inside, all the windows were open and the place smelled like an ashtray!. The sheets were old and had rips and holes in them and the whole place was very filthy. Interestingly, there was an... More

We chose this one knowing it might be a sticky wicket, having read other reviews. We got a top floor room. It was clean; the linens were good; the bed was comfortable; the carpet was fine; there were no issues. The walls appeared to be freshly painted. The bathroom was clean and functional. We stayed one night for a trip... More

We had a reservation for a single smoking room. After we checked in, we brought our bags to the room and took a quick look around. In the corner there was a pile, literally a pile of spit/loogies/I don't know what in the corner of the room. Very gross and unsanitary. We went to the front desk and let them... More
