The tub was brown the walls were full of dirty the phone and other cords had deep dirt on the this was filthy!!!! Didn’t get a chance to go to take pictures because I instantly left. They didn’t want to refund me back so hotels.com couldn’t do it so I just lose out sad AND THERE IS NO BREAKFAST HERE THAT IS A LIE AS WELL. Nothing like the pictures or advertisements.

I reserved tvis room because it said that their was a pool and breakfast. Most of the time I am traveling with kids. The pool is good after along day in the car and breakfast is good to get fueled for the day. On the app it saysthere were both. When we got there the pool was empty and lookedthat way for awhile. And the front desk clerk saidthere was no breakfast. There were more long term rooms then there were regular rooms. I would definitely not recommend staying here.

Not the Ho-Jo I grew up staying in!
Book for a one night stay. Check-in went normal. The guy who checked me in stated the pool closes at 9 pm. I was excited to hear that because it's been hot as heck. Drove to the building where my room was (#217). Grabbed our bags and headed up the stairs. Smelt like spoiled liquor (if there's such a a smell) and it definitely wasn't clean. Trash left and right. Don't grab a hold of the hand rails unless you like the feel of spiderwebs. Yuck! Unlocked the room and walked in. Musty smell. Thankfully I always pack a fresh can of Febreze and scented candle. Immediately turned the AC on high as low as it would go (60°). Then sprayed the room HEAVILY with the Febreze and lit the candle . Opened the mini fridge to put some take out food bought at Shoneys, and it contained old food left behind. Oh well, just put it in the microwave to hold, but it was nasty inside as well. Went to the bathroom. Actually surprised it was decently clean. Flush the toilet. If you need to reflush, you had to wait 6-8 minutes for the take to refill. Turned on the TV...no connection. Had to call the front desk. Was informed maintainance would be there in 30 minutes. An hour later he came. Fought with it and finally got it going. Went to the pool to relax. #LMAO Wrong again. The water was a sickly looking green. Went to watch a movie, got back. Room finally cooled enough to stay. Got a halfway decent nap and couldn't wait to check out. Right outside the office someone selling drugs. Total disaster!

It appeared that there were many weekly renters. People hanging around outside. Small thin towels and very cheap soap and shampoo. The room was clean but very cheap amenities. No breakfast or coffee. No internet. Desk clerk had some show on his laptop with a man shouting the f bomb. Not impressed.

Questionable people hanging around outside all night. Dirty room with a rusty refrigerator that does not work. TV did not work and was just leaning against the wall. This was a replacement room because the other 2 we were put in beforehand were even worse.

Worst hotel ever
This was the worst hotel I've ever been at. The rooms were not the pictures that we were shown. The pool was so dirty you couldn't see down it. It was just horrendous. The sink had a huge hole in it. The drawers on the dresser were falling off. It advertised free breakfast. There was nothing at all and we were there at 7:30 in the morning.
