Disgusting! This is hands down the worse hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Smoke detectors are removed, rat traps outside the room, holes in the wall of the bathroom, birds nest IN the air conditioning rendering it useless - sleeping in nature would be safer than staying in this disgustingly filthy hotel.

Parking was easy. We were told not to turn on our AC because a bird had built a nest in the unit. SO why give us that unit?? No idea. It was a cool night and we survived w/ the window open. There was a leak in the roof that was poorly repaired and looked moldy. it was late and we were tired. The walls were paper thin and after I heard the person's TV next to us I felt bad that we had been so noisy.
