Place is a bug-infested dump. Within 5 minutes of checking in, found multiple bugs crawling on the floor and the night stand. Bedding had yellow stains on it and bathroom was moldy and run down. Checked out and demanded a full refund a few minutes later. The front desk issued a refund but insisted I sign a receipt showing I had a balance of $123. I crossed out the balance and wrote $0.00 so he printed out another copy. He finally let it go when I started raising my voice. You couldn't pay me to stay at this trash with a hazmat suit. Run!!

We tried to check in 2 hour early and I was charged an extra $30 per room . The rooms were dirty and old looking . The bathroom door didn’t even close , didn’t have a knob . The sink sprayed water when you open it up . The tube in both rooms were clogged up . This is the worst hotel I’ve ever been too . One room smelled like smoke and it had a no smoking sign .

I left late, but it might be the worst place I’ve ever stayed in. The room was dirty and had not really even attempted to be cleaned. Sink were broken as was Aircon.

Would not recommend. Room was not nice. Whole vibe of the place was sketchy. I almost left because I wasn't sure my door was locking properly. Cheap but not worth it.
