FIRST OF ALL! HORRIBLE!

Myself, wife and 6 month old son attended this hotel as we figured it was the only decent one there. WE WERE WRONG...

1.) We booked a week earlier than our arrival date
2.) We confirmed the night before
3.) When we arrived, THEY GAVE AWAY OUR ROOM! The only room they had was a SMOKING ROOM...did I mention i had a 6 month old? NOT GOOD! Then they tried to charge us over $100 when we were qouted $72.95 plus tax, this was even for a single bed room that wasnt what we wanted.

It was dirty, unkept....who ever said they renovated was blind or something. The toilet was yellow, the tub was yellow, it looked as if there was 'creepy crawlies' all around the room. We didnt even sleep in the sheets as they are so hard and itchy that we couldnt sleep. It was rediculous...dont get me wrong. If i paid $30 a night...it would make sense. But for one that set me back $80...wtf. Thats rediculous! I coudlnt cancel or they were going to charge us anyways....even though they werent busy!

DO NOT GO HERE!

Another story...

ALSO at 2:30 am my wife had a angry drunk kicking her door and yelling at them to come out. we called downstairs, they wouldnt answer or do anything. All my wife could do was stay in thier room and lock all the doors and pray for the best. luckly the drunk man did not get in. When my wife went downstairs in the morning, the owner (host) prety much shrugged it off and made it seem like it was no big deal. It made her feel very unsafe, unwelcome and very much degraded.

I WOULD NOT SUGGEST THIS HOTEL TO MY WORST ENEMIES!

Paraphrase...
1. NOT renovated! False advertising.
2. Itchy and uncomfortable sheets
3. They got rid of our room and tried to charge us way more for a room that is not what we requested.
4. Treated us with disrespect
5. The continental breakfast was a joke... watered down juice..i can probably get a better breakfast outside by the garbage.
6. Rooms stunk like stale smoke and a dirty diaper
7. Could care less about our safety
8. Spoke to us like we were idiots

THIS PLACE IS A JOKE! If you need a motel....GO TO MOTEL 6! Its $2 more but its worth it, id rather no one else to feel and experience what we went through!

I would not stay in this hotel again as we felt the sheets had not been washed from previous guests. All of the towels and facecloths were stained and did not seem really clean. Other guests made suggestive comments to my 14 year daughter at the hotel. This is a hotel suitable for construction workers and not families or single women with children.

Positives: Convenient.

Negatives: Sheets had hairs on them, towels had spiders in them, no dead bolt on door
