We had planned to stay for one week at this hotel. We arrived and noticed a few things that were huge red flags. We left one hour after we checked in.
First, the surrounding area is very run down. The liquour store, next door, has bars on the windows and is very run down. There is a big fence around the hotel, so you can't see what is on the other side. There is people "living" there. Not staying for a visit, but dead plants in windows, animals, a broken down car and other things...living there. Second, one younger man kinda "lingered" around while we took our suitcases in. He then was on the 2 floor as we left our room. I am not sure he followed us, but it felt very uneasy. Third, We made a second trip bringing suitcases in and some guy comes out of a room and yells. It made me jump and he laughed. I turned around and he was only a few doors away from us! He laughed and said something we couldn't understand. Forth, there are signs EVERYWHERE, bright yellow triangles that said don't leave anything in your car, we are not responsible for thief or valdanlizism.
Let me say that the room itself wasn't horrible. It smelled like cigarette smoke, but it was clean. There was cigarette burns by the air conditioner/heat unit. and the TV had a "melted" spot on the top. Other than that, it was clean and stocked with what they said they would have.
I would not recommend this hotel due to the fact of the way we "felt". It wasn't a badly cleaned hotel, but the area and people made me and my traveling companion very uncomfortable.
We ended up checking out and finding a different hotel on the other side of town.
