“Sleep in your car instead of here”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 July 2004
6
people found this review helpful

After sleeping in this hotel I now believe that cars can be comfortable. This hotel will make you wish you had rather slept in your car. The beds here will make you believe that the floor has got to be more comfortable. The hotel is located next to a major through-fare in town which means that you will here road traffic all night long because the walls are paper thin and the hotel is right next to the highway. Also, because it is next to the highway the lights from the highway and parking lot will illuminate your room all night long. The room had a bad odor and felt damp. I slept in my sweatshirt because I was afraid of the sheets. I had to lift up the quilt to insert a bed-rail for my 3-year old & looked at the matress which looked to be 30 years old possibly found on the side of the road judging by the stains on it. The matress felt that way too. Instead of staying here, sleep in your car. You will be more comfortable.
