Stayed 1 night

I've stayed in roadside motels, truck stop hotels, and places with questionable reviews, but this was easily the dirtiest room I've ever had the misfortune of paying for. The sheets weren't white—they were a disturbing shade of yellow-brown that looked like they'd been washed in coffee and regret. There was hair everywhere: on the bathroom floor, in the shower, on the sink, and somehow even on the "clean" towels. It felt less like checking into a hotel and more like interrupting the previous guest halfway through their stay. The shower even came with someone else's used bar of soap still sitting there. Apparently housekeeping's cleaning process consists of opening the bathroom door, shrugging, and leaving. The sink was cracked, the room looked like it hadn't seen a mop since the last presidential administration, and the fire alarm had literally been dismantled. Nothing inspires confidence quite like realizing the smoke detector has already given up on life. Every surface was sticky, dusty, stained, or all three. The furniture looked exhausted, the room smelled like mildew mixed with bad decisions, and the entire place felt one failed health inspection away from becoming a condemned building. Calling this place "run down" is generous. It has been run over, backed over, abandoned, and forgotten. If dirt were a luxury amenity, this hotel would deserve five stars. Save your money, sleep in your car, pitch a tent in a Walmart parking lot, or take your chances with a park ben

Don waste your time. AC not working. Smell of smoke is impregnated into the curtains of the nonsmoking room. Area feels so unsafe to walk from car to room.
