Coming from a girl who has stayed in a LOT of flea-bag hotels in her life, this place really and truly is a dump. Upon arrival, the lot looked so ill kept and there were zero cars in the parking lot. My boyfriend had to run inside to see if the place was even still in business. On the plus side, the rooms are fairly large and comes equipped with a mini fridge, cable tv, and a safe. However, the mattress we stayed on sagged significantly in the middle and after reading other customer reviews, I was afraid to look under the sheets. The entire room smelled of feet. The bathroom door had obviously been busted open at one point and never repaired. The shower didn't drain. The carpet had stickys spots all over it.
Worst of all were the staff. The two men I saw working the front desk were polite enough but I get the impression that the housekeeping staff all live or stay permenantly in the hotel and treat the lobby like it's thier living room. The first morning we were heading out of the hotel we witnessed two young males with no shoes on, one in sweatpants and the other in jean shorts, cleaning the kitchen area. As we were walking out of the lobby later on that evening we passed one of the same men on the public lobby computers looking as what appeared to be soft core porn. At about 5am the next morning I wandered down to the lobby to get ice (the ice machine on our floor was out of order) and the same 2 younf men along with a handful of friends were all hanging out on the couches in the lobby. At the same time a pretty rough looking man was trying to get cereal out of the breakfast stand.
Pay the extra couple of bucks a night and avoid this hotel.
