Made a reservation on line from West Springfield ,MA and the rate was alright, not the best but we needed to stay somewhere because we where at another hotel that was very good. But we decided to stay one more day at the last moment. Sometimes you have to know that you get what you pay for but this hotel isn't that much cheaper. We get to the hotel the front desk person was nice we get into the room 523 and as soon as you open the door you get slapped with this really bad smell. We start to put our bags in and we open the sliding door to get some air into the room and we put the air on also. I start to spray my lysol thinking that the smell would go away by the time we get back from six flags. We get back from six flags tired ready to go to sleep for the night and bam that smell again, it was pure urine I know what it is now. So I spray my lysol again all over the place on beds, the entire room, bathroom, towards the air conditioner and we all try to sleep I can not sleep the smell is overwhelming. I call front desk at 1:00 a.m. and ask the person what do they use to wash the linens and covers. He said that they are washed, I asked them do they use bleach and he said yes. It doesn't smell like bleach that it is the smell of URINE. He asked if we would like another room at this time of the morning I told him yes. We go downstairs and he gives me the card key for another room, I asked if I can go there to check it out first. We go to room 125 and their is a smell but not like the other one. So my sons and husband go upstairs to get our bags and one of my sons sees a cockaroach on the wall. He didn't want to stay at this hotel and I told him that we would have to rough it and just deal with it at this time. I was not happy with this room but it was too late to go and find another hotel. The smell was a little less and I was spraying my lysol just to make it easier to sleep at least for a few hours. I did get about 4 hours of sleep I guess I was so tired. I know that this hotel is old but it shouldn't be so unclean and smelly and roaches. I live in an old house but I maintain my home. The bathroom door didn't have a lock, the door was old could use some paint, the tub was dirty so I didn't showered, I was afraid I would get something on my feet. The rugs haven't seen a shampooer in the life of the rugs, the coffee maker was filthy, the sliding window doors were crying for mercy for windex or maybe vinegar. the linens did not smell fresh. Their were cobb webs on the ceiling so I knew this was going to be a bad time. We didn't have any breakfast because we didn't want any added ingredient like the roach that was on the wall. I would not recommend this place to a pig, let alone humans. It is a dump.
