it was gross. the first room we got smelled like a smokers room. The second room was gross too. the bathroom smelled like urine. The roof right outside our door was peeling. and unfortunately, since it was graduation weekend, we paid top dollar. the staff was nice, but that didn't make up for the room.

This is the worst room I ever stayed in. It was dirty. The furniture was falling apart. It smelled like wet dog. If I had options I would have left. Don’t stay here.

The room was dirty. We found trash on the floor next to the bed. The tub had hair and dirt in it, and the room smelled like wet dog.

I'm kinda disappointed with my stay here, the heater is not working properly the refrigerator is making all kinds of noise , there are bugs in the bathroom crawling around. The remote for the TV barely works and when it does it doesn't do what you were trying to to do... It does what it wants to when it wants to...😞 I'm going to request a refund, especially because it's cold in here and the heater isn't blowing air at all 😞

I only stayed for 1 night for the weekend and it went only well. They kept this place cleaned but not too clean and the bed was pretty comfortable. The staffs were nice and they have everything you need for this place! I would recommend it here since it’s cheaper!

We had to air our room out due to the marijuana smell. The front desk only noted the smell but no assistance or solution was provided. The sheets were stained and we found papers left in drawers- The room had obviously not been cleaned. The parking lot had cars with loud music playing at 3am and non-stop traffic in and out of the facility.
