renovated with new furniture but dirty and stains all over the bed. you can hear foot steps upstairs not to mention the next door. you may be trouble sleeping if you have wrong neighbors like i did. They said to pay in advance at check in and no refund. i wondered why. More

I moved up from the squalid Golden West Hotel and discovered Travel Lodge! At over $80 a night it was 3X more expensive Golden West. Much Cleaner and nicer, but, this place has seen better days.
