😠 Just keep driving. This place is disgusting. We only stayed because it was really late. The room stunk, the beds are old and saggy. The bathroom hadn't been cleaned. Nothing had been cleaned! The nightstand had sticky something on the whole top. We slept in our clothes with towels covering the pillo... People often mention room, night, work, stay,

    Just keep driving. This place is disgusting. We only stayed because it was really late. The room stunk, the beds are old and saggy. The bathroom hadn't been cleaned. Nothing had been cleaned! The nightstand had sticky something on the whole top. We slept in our clothes with towels covering the pillows. Our next door neighbors were having a REAL loud, good time ALL night. We would have been better off sleeping in the car.

    If you’re like me, and think you can manage a two star hotel room for a night and you tell yourself, “how bad can it be?” Think again. Your health is more important than saving money!!! The parking lot is sketchy and I was half tempted to move my car someone else in fear of it being broken into. The lobby was fine and the lady who checked us in (who works part time) was nice and I had no issues. That was the only thing I did not have an issue with. My room was on the second floor and the room two doors down had a missing window. We walked into our room and there was an overwhelming smokey smell. We kept the door open for an hour while getting ready to try and air it out, but that did not work. The place was disgusting and not clean at all. There were two broken TVs on our dresser and a remote with no batteries. The fridge had an awful smell and was dirty as well. I had food that I let go bad because putting it in the fridge probably would have resulted in some sort of disease. The shower had hair left in it and the toilet had dirty streaks and probably hasn’t been cleaned in months. I refused to use the bathroom there, and ended up walking across the street to McDonalds when I did have to go. The floors clearly haven’t seen a vacuum in a long time and I made sure I did not go barefoot. I found a bug crawling on the wall and the smoke detector was also missing... The place was disgusting, but for the price, we figured we could make it work for one night. My friends checked for bed bugs but did not see any (the chance of finding them if you’re not a professional can be tough). We got back to the hotel and went to bed around 3:30am. I made sure to sleep in my clothes - jeans and a long sleeve shirt because I did not want to dirty other clothes in that place and I wanted to make sure I would be covered as much as possible. Thank goodness I did not wear shorts because I woke up around 7am itching. I had 3 bites across my neck, 4 bites on my back waistline, 2 bites on BOTH of my hands and a bite on my ankle. I had to get out of there and I checked out right away. I told the guy at the front desk who tried to turn the situation on me, and asked why I did not ask for a different room. Based on the comments (which I didn’t check before booking), a different room would not have been better but also how would I have known that I was going to wake up with 10+ bites on me. The guy clearly did not give AF and flat out told me he didn’t care. If I knew ahead of time how my experience would be, I gladly would have paid double, even triple the price to stay somewhere more sanitary and safe. The fact that this place has not been shut down, blows my mind.

    Actually, it's not as bad as the reviews I've seen.but i see that they r from 2 or 3 years old... I haven't got bitten by any bugs, the staff are friendly and for the most part, it's quiet and haven't had any problems with any residents. The television is my only concern as I'm only getting five channels and it's supposed to be cable. I do believe the price is a little steep for weekly rates. Other than that it's not a bad place to stay.

    really gross motel. i’m a woman traveling alone and the men at the front desk made me very uncomfortable, and i didn’t feel safe in my room because the latch was broken. couldn’t sleep because the radiator turns off and on really loudly all night. you could find a much nicer place for around the same price.

    This place is out of a horror movie. Caution tape all over the place on balconies, at least ones not visible from road. We walked into room, caution tape in room, sheets had stains, reeked of cigarette smoke. Nothing like pictures on the booking site. Do not spend your money here. Needless to say, walked out and spent night at another hotel. Would have slept in my car before I would have spent night in this place. Choice Hotels should be embarrassed that they own this dump. Not clear how I even booked a room here, was a major mistake.

    The toilet was backed up and had overflowed BEFORE WE EVEN GOT THERE!! It was late when we checked in, AFTER 4am, and we STILL had to check out BY 11. The toilet had overflowed and there was fecal water all over the bathroom floor and had even soaked the carpets outside the bathroom. I went to the office and rang the bell several times but was unable to reach staff so the only option was to leave. Im glad we did too because upon packing, we seen several cockroaches. At $70 per night plus tax, they shluld be sued.

    Aside from No Hot Water for two nights in a row, no shower curtain, no drinking cups, no ice, broken security lock on inside, checkout is at 11am. The front desk knocks on your door at 11:00.59 am so that there's no chance for a late checkout. It's awful!

    Good place to lay your head for a couple weeks if you got to stay there.

    WARNING TO ALL: Worst place ever to stay. Do not stay here. Pay for a better place. We had two separate rooms. First the TV's didn't work then they only had like four channels. Room 205s toilet seat wasnt even attached and remote didn't work with or without new batteries. Then after ND game we come back and card wouldn't work. Front desk man wouldn't let me in so I had to call the cops. As soon as cops came they let me in real quick. Cops said they been there 1000 times. Then as we were leaving another rooms card wouldn't work. I think they running criminal activity or scamming people. I'm pressing charges and taking them to court for a refund. Hopefully this place gets shutdown and the owners go to jail. There are also other things like being a little dirty, shower curtain ripped, and bad smells. You've been warned! DO NOT STAY HERE.

    There is an older man here that treats me like I a waste of his time. He calls his manager because apparently my questions made absolutely no sense to him yet he understood it perfectly to explain it in his tongue just so he could treat me and my ex-husband like we were stupid. And we both understand both the Hindi and Punjabi languages.

    I called to see if there was any rooms available and the man hung the phone up on me and was extremely rude. Would give this dump negative stars if that was allowed.

    Everything was rotten and dirty. The man at the reception couldn't even speak English. When we got there, 1 room had been canceled because a pipe had broken, we left there and took another hotel
