Stayed 2 nights

Room was very dated and slapped together. The bed is a cheap metal framed bed that squeaked every time you breathed. Tops of all flat surfaces were dirty and had crumbs everywhere. Owner is a complete clown. He was working when I arrived, a couple hours earlier than the posted check-in. I explained to him I was in TN for a family emergency and time was critical. Instead of letting me check in before I raced over to the hospital, he refused me entry unless I paid for another full day. I refused and left. I slept in my vehicle in the hospital parking lot. I would never stay there again.
