I travel on the cheap all over the country and I've never wanted to punch a front desk attendant in the face more than I did 5 minutes ago. Um 11 percent tax? Um unknown, unadvertised $8.50 fee that they do not acknowledge until after card is run? convenient they do advertise a strict no refund policy. I'm typically quite... More

Like the previous poster I also stayed here trying to save money. Upon check-in, the front desk staff had NO manners. The rooms stunk. The other patrons, who all seemed to be on parole, seemed as though they were using the place as a safe house. VERY bare rooms, and dirty bathrooms. The shower tub and tile walls had multiple...

the front desk staff is rude, don't bother making a reservation they will try to swindle you out of it and charge you more. The doors don't colse/lock all the way. The whole property stinks like curry all the time, day and night. The rooms are beyond filthy and clientele is sketchy to say the least. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

Later when we started our trip we needed to change our reservation to just one night instead of two. Another man answered the phone and told... More
