I arrived after a long drive and was hoping to use the restroom. The front desk attendant was on a personal cell phone call. I asked about a restroom and was told that were not available downstairs, and then he went back to talking on the phone. I think he may have seen the potty dance and told the person he was talking with that he would have to call back later. The hallways were dimly lit and cold. It looks like some fairly recent fresh paint such as in the last year had been used to cover up how rundown the walls are in the hallway and even in the room. There was a sign at the front desk about how they would take and hold open a credit card and would be inspecting the room for damage upon exit. I got concerned when I was up in the room and saw several problems such as the back of one of the nightstands, detached and leaning up against the wall behind the unit. The little mini fridge was missing all of its little shelves in one of the doors and other miscellaneous things. I called the front desk to report pre-existing damage and was told just to take pictures of it. I found out why the room was so cheap! The Amtrak train literally runs in the street that is in front of this hotel. There are fewer trains at night, but there’s still our trains and since it’s a populated area, they sound their horn. If you were a light sleeper, do not stay here! They advertise a continental breakfast. I certainly don’t know what continent they were on! Thick mold inside bathroom vent! Dirty

Nothing. This place was a dump. The staff never cleaned our room. The front desk lied about us calling them to have housekeeping come. Smelled like Marijuana through out the hotel. Front desk attendant was high. Dirty. Broken locks. Room next door kept us up all night with noise. Left early it was so bad

Don’t do it unless you enjoy paper thin walls with noisy guests late into the night and stale cigarette smell. Park at your own risk. Bed was comfortable for one night, but couldn’t get out of there fast enough.

This is one of the worst properties in the world. No heat. Bath room tubs don’t drain , you will be in a pond. Dirty shower curtain . Always touching your body. Hairs on the bed. Pillows stink as they were not changed. Outside the window was rooftop garbage. Ac pipe vegetation growth. Doors have 2 inch space. The rooms snicks of food cooking . The hallway and property sinks of marijuana. I was buzzed with headaches before reaching my room. Totally disgusting . I ran off the next day. Honestly speaking you rather sleep on streets than this place. Don’t know how this lame property exist. The picture of hotel are all lies you see on Expedia. Shame on Expedia for having these properties listed. No expedia help on the first night. When I called . And twice the Expedia staff Huns up the phone. Don’t go . Never go. Sleep on street bench but not here .

No cleaning, no towels, hallways smell like cigarette smoke, very noisy because of train track in front of hotel (also during the night), dogs are allowed in hotel and my neighbours dog kept barking all night, not a lot of choice in breakfast and bird nests at the parking lot (inside area) , car full of bird poop. Something they know but don't do anything about. Filters in room very dirty..
