DON’T BOOK HERE

The hotel was vacant upon arrival and there were 2 taped pieces of paper on the door saying closed. When you drive 3+ hours to arrive at a closed hotel, it is very infuriating!

This hotel should be condemned and torn down. I am surprised it is allowed to stay in operation. Seriously, this place is a health hazard and under no circumstances should anyone stay there.

Expedia should be ashamed of themselves! The hotel is closed!!!! How do you not keep up with this 💩? We arrived at what was supposed to be our check in time, only to find out the hotel is permanently closed. Why are you booking rooms at a hotel that is closed? You and the hotel must have 💩 for brains for letting this happen!
