Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING about this was horrible. The staff was UNPROFESSIONAL. I tried to get a refund and the woman kept fighting with me. I don't understand what kind of business is being run here. There were bugs ALL over, the walls, floor, bathroom. There was dried blood on the blanket. We had to sleep with a blanket... More

We were looking for something affordable, I know you usually get what you pay for, but in this case I don't believe that the value is worth the fear and disgust this place instilled in us. First off, it's not much cheaper than a Super8 or Motel6, maybe 9$. There was hair in the bed, the showers were moldy and... More

Was there about for about 40 minutes when I felt a bedbug crawling up my arm. Couldn't get out of there fast enough. Only got half of my money back. I highly recommend not staying there. They seem like they didn't care about how dirty the place is or the fact there are bedbugs. Stay away.

Hotel is not the right word for this establishment. Dump is more appropriate. We were looking for low-cost lodging after a longer more expensive trip and decided we could deal with a few inconveniences for a discounted rate. We called several days ahead of time to confirm our reservation and "Yes, we will have a non-smoking queen for you on... More

It is located right on campus which is a positive but the place is not clean. The bed was not comfortable at all. On the plus side it was super cheap. The guy next to me had been living there for a couple of months while he was in town working a union job.

I'm not expecting the red carpet and a concierge for $55 a night, but this place was an abominable dump. Let me give you a short list of the atrocities. The room reeked like an ashtray, both chairs had stains on them, one appeared to be blood. On the other chair, maybe poop? My dog found a piece of used... More

This place is a dump. A mismash of furniture with two beds crammed into a room that should only have one. Creepy, crummy carpet. An air conditioner in the wall that was broken and one in the window that had been used as an ashtray (in a non-smoking room). We refused to use the shower because of all the mildew... More

The pool was not operational as of 6/9/07. Event though I had made my reservation online they could't find it, tried to charge me a different rate, and then gave me a different room. Our small room was dirty and over-packed with a mismatch of furniture. The aircon didn't work correctly, the remote for the TV didn't work. Our friends'... More
