Check in was not convenient, Place was dirty, When we got to our room it stunk, there was mold and a thin sheet on the bed for a blanket. Long story short I checked out and we did not stay there.

The temperature in the hotel was around 50 degrees. They had no heat in the hallways etc. The staff was not friendly at all or willing to help other than one girl who gave me blankets. The pillows on the bed were yellow and stained. They have been in there a long time. The shower head was terrible. The smell was gross. The pull out bed had mouse droppings on it as well as stains and old gross dust. The floor needed cleaned. It was overall a rough few days.
