The room was nice the property was clean the owner was nice.They don't have a ice machine that's a down fall other then that it cool little spot to chill at restaurant are close by
The heater in the room didn't work. The drain in both the sink and the shower were clogged and I had to buy drain-o and cleaning supplies to make it sanitary enough to shower in. The floors were not swept so even after getting out of the shower I had to immediately put on socks. I also had to buy washcloths because none came with the room. Every night there was either someone screaming in the parking lot until the wee hours of the morning, fire alarms going off, or cop cars in the parking lot.

Sheets had some stains but were clean otherwise. Odd crack in the floor by the door but the room was intact. TV wouldn't change off of Bravo but that could just be that the cable box was mounted in an odd location where the remote couldn't reach it.
The room smelled AWFUL!!!!! It had dry blood on the door that I didn't notice until it was to late. The tub was stained with nastiness. Spiders and other bugs were in the room as if they rented it. No outlets to charge your devices. I had to unplug the dirty microwave. It was alot of drugs and prostitution going on. I would have been better sleeping in my car.... it won't let me upload the pictures but if I could i would.
I had a reservation there I went into the room someone else was sleeping in the bed went back down to the check in office I got stuck in the office over 10 minutes due to the main door had locked me in couldn't get out I went into Panama mood ASAP the manager had to uncrew the lock off the door,3 incident was when i got off work i wasn't able to get my room due to the door messed up I went into another room this was the 4th time I went into another room thus was was moody,smell urine,plus it's was under rentavation.i asked for a refund i was told that I couldn't get no refund. I went to another hotel in paid more with better service there. Please don't stay there it's very poor Expedia will allow them to put in false information for the property if you looking what you see its not what you are getting...
The room in general was very run down. there were only a couple outlets, the bathroom light did not work and the cover was off with exposed wires. The tub was very nice but the door had to remain open to shower. The tv/remote did not work. we could get the tv to turn on but had no options for stations. the 1 outlet by the bed was closer to the window than the bed, and our things would not stay plugged in. There were cobwebs in the corners. Overall was not impressed. Would not recommend this place to people.
