I cannot accurately rate this property because it was closed for business. And unfortunately, Expedia was not aware. It was VERY disheartening to pull up to the hotel, see that it is closed, & then have to scramble to find another place to stay. Then, I could not even find a phone number to call Expedia. I had to Google an actual number. Even then, I was taken to having to download the Expedia app which still did not have an actual number. Only the virtual assistant. The only actual number that could be found was under, “PissedConsumer” when googled. The only communication that could be had via the “itinerary” was a virtual assistant that was not programmed to understand when a property is actually closed for business. Once finally getting through to an actual person, she was extremely helpful, & I was able to get my money back; however was not able to get my money back for purchasing the “travel guard” which is for the hotel booking protection. Apparently, that is only for the first 15 days after purchase which makes zero sense. I am still very grateful I was able to get my money back.

This was a horrible stay. I would give negative rating if I could. Staff was friendly, but amenities were horrendous. The smell of the room was very strong, the bathroom was dirty, the sink had a crack fixed with electrical tape, bugs in the nightstand. It was so bad we considered sleeping in our car. ThankGod we only spent 1 night (game night) and we got out of there as soon as we could – we didn’t dare to use the shower. For the price we paid for the stay, the owners should do better. This has a potential to be an excellent hotel – good location, good staff. if you don’t have anoyher option of hotel, consider your car to sleep - you wilp be better off

Out dated. Not clean. Bathroom door was broken. Garbage outside. Old room furniture dumped by the parking area. Only redeeming feature was it was close to the stadium and downtown. Pictures posted of the hotel were not representative of what the place was like in person.

This is the worst place I was forced to stay in. Could not change due to no other hotel available. Bugs including cockroaches everywhere, soiled bathroom, leaking a/c into room soaking carpet. Staff would not assist with no working tv or phone or electrical outlets. They said, “owners will not make it better.”
