I stayed at this hotel and found the room to be very dirty. I even had to ask my husband to buy some Lysol to spray everything with because it seemed like the bathroom hadn't been cleaned for a while. The bed was old and musty with stains, so I wouldn't recommend it. However, despite these issues, the rooms were ultimately clean.

The hotel room was not up to standard, with curtains drawn to mask the old and musty bed, numerous stains, and an overall unclean feeling. Despite attempts to improve the cleanliness with personal disinfectants, the room remained unpleasant. The service was inconsistent, ranging from rude interactions during reservation to friendliness marred by unprofessional appearances. The location, although convenient for our plans, lacked a continuous water flow and was difficult to control the room temperature. The dining experience was disappointing due to slow restocking and lack of necessary amenities. Despite these issues, the facilities were basic but functional.
