Great but needs a real cleaning
Usually good for the price but sometimes can find much better accommodations for same price or just a little more. Place needs a deep cleaning. The whole place.

6/10 Good

dirty, loud, but great value.
The absolute dirtiest place ive ever stayed. me and my friend kept laughing about just how poor a state everything was in. cigarette holes in our bed. dust bunnies everywhere. just overall super dirty. BUT! this was the cheapest place by far, we read the reviews before hand and we knew what we were getting in to. i think as long as you know what youre getting yourself in to and just looking for an ultra cheap place with great location than go for it. we were lucky enough to get a room with its own bathroom. also this place is old with older wooden floors so you can really hear people come in and out of building.

2/10 Poor

Never stay here
I have traveled my whole life stayed in so many different kinds of accommodations and I can absolutely say this was one of the worst places I’ve ever stayed. The bathroom was tiny and disgustingly dirty. There was a shared room with other persons that were loud and noisy.The linens looked used and frayed.

Disgusting
This building should be condemned. It is in disrepair, old, dingy, dirty and they should not be charging guests to stay here. I checked in and ended up booking a new hotel within hours. Once they saw me leaving, they offered to move me to a new room (saying they have better rooms but they only gave me the room they did because of my dog)- no, my dog is cleaner than the room and hallway. The bathroom was what made me decide to leave -it was filthy, with fecal matter all throughout the toilet bowl. I couldn't take it. Why not offer to refund my money, or at least 1 night since I pre-paid for 2 nights but only stayed for a few hours?

2/10 Poor

Do not bring kids here.
Carpet was filthy. Beds were clean, but the pillows old, flat, and smelly. Towel was clean, and a sink in the bedroom closet was functional. Know what to expect .... this place is really bad, but compared to the hotels nearby it was affordable. Staff was very nice and accommodating, though. The communal bathroom was gross, gross, gross. I would never shower in that moldy tile from the 1950's with grungy sliding door. The toilet seat looks to be at least 30 years old from the worn paint.

Nice staff/Dirty Inn/Pricy for what you get
Stayed in a room that had spatters of something on the ceiling and walls. I’ve stayed in this room before and it had the same spatters before. I booked a less expensive room and was offered this room because I’ve had it before. But this time I had to pay extra. Stupid me, I agreed. I mean the room was going to be empty anyway. It’s crazy they would take advantage of someone who stays there frequently. It’s even more crazy I fell for it! There was trash and dust under the bed. It wouldn’t be so bad but the prices they are charging now are a bit ridiculous for the dingy space you get. Now even though the space is what it is, the staff is really pleasant.

You get what you pay for. Staff are nice but the room and hall bath both were in desperate need of cleaning and repair. Ceiling tiles, carpet, walls and shower all needed a good cleaning.
