This is the worst hotel... Liked: The only thing I liked about this place was its location in proximity to the event I was attending. Disliked: This was the most disgusting hotel I’ve ever been at. The first room I was assigned room 124 was only what I could describe as being the dirty hotel room you see in a low budget horror film. The tub was so rusted that it was falling apart just by looking at it, and the carpet in the bedroom was soaking wet as if the room had been flooded. I asked for a no smoking room and got the exact opposite. The walls were so yellowed from cigarette smoke that the picture frame on the wall had left a distinct square on the wall from where it was sitting. The mattresses and bedding were so old and yellowed you could tell easily that they have not been replaced or cleaned in many of years. The second role was assigned was directly above it room 224. While this room was a little bit more presentable it obviously had not been vacuumed and and same problem with the mattresses as they were heavily stained, and not to mention the broken crack pipe that was in the bed when I removed the blankets. The carpets were extremely sticky and the dirty handprints all over the doors and door frames was crazy. It looked like the room was haunted at how many handprints were all over the doors and walls. I understand that this was a two star hotel, and that my expectation shouldn’t be very high at all, but from the pictures it made it seem like the place was at least clean. I was very wrong. I would not recommend anybody ever stay here ever. I’ve seen better rooms in abandoned hotels I’ve explored than that I was rented this weekend.

Liked: The staff was wonderful! Especially all the little me who work at the front desk. Disliked: The only issue I had was I honestly don’t think my room was clean. I found Arby’s bags in the microwave, there was a dirty towel behind the door. I asked the housekeeper for a change of sheets.she looked at me like she couldn’t comprehend
