The floor in the room had not been vacuumed for at least one day, maybe more, and there was a broken bar of soap under the sink. I showed all this to the front desk person who basically shrugged their shoulders and did nothing. They did help with a couple other things. The bed and bathroom were fine. The breakfast was minimal.

One star if you're lucky

The bedspread was gross and disgusting. The place needs a major upgrade, the decor looks extremely dated. Whether or not the property owners are willing to invest the $$ and time to do that I seriously question. Also there's no more continental breakfast, which sucked because I was there a month ago and they offered it. Apparently they're cutting costs/looking to increase their profit margins. The adage "you get what you pay for" definitely applies here! You don't pay much and by the same token, you don't get much. Keep your expectations at zero and you'll be ok, otherwise do yourself a favor and stay at the microtel or Best Western down the street.

The beds were comfortable. The staff is never up front. You need to use the phone to call them over. My friend wanted to rent her room for one more day and was told that there were already booked. She went online and came to find out that there were rooms available. She booked it and went to the office to show the lady who did not seem pleased.

Check-in, went fine when we entered the room. It was so dark and we could see why, when we turned the lights on, it was filthy. The vacuum has not been run in this room. Probably, in a couple of weeks taking the pillows off the bed, there was dirt under all of the pillows on the bed. Shower had mold in it, and we had to walk in our shoes in the room. Because our feet got, it's dirty from walking on the carpet. There's mold in the top tile of the sink area that has not been taken out. And cleaned blessed, it looks like forever. Breakfast ended at 9, and it was poor at best.
