Pamela, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

We checked in and left shortly after. The room was dirty, the toilet didn’t work and the area around the hotel was unsafe.

Dave, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was not ready until 45 minutes to an hour after check in time. Other than that staff was friendly and room was clean.
Micah, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Was confident for staying during the state fair but rooms were pretty dirty around the baseboards in the bathroom and felt unsafe outside of our room. We told the front desk we wanted towels and cleaning service when checking in but that didn’t happen.
Caitlin, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The carpet was filthy in the hallways and in our room I would not step on that carpet in my socks or my feet had to wear shoes. It was disgusting. Rest of the hotel was good.
Charles, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not the best place. The room is dated old with some mold. Staff is very awesome
Samuel, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room booked for 4 ppl. Only 2 towels/washcloths. FYI you have to pay to park here. Neighborhood not the greatest.

makayliah, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Our room was not ready until 5:15 pm. Check in was 4:00. Other people in the line checked in after me and got into their rooms right away.
Karen, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great place… terrible breakfast
Andrew, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Wd didn't feel safe even going inside. Appeared to be a high crime area, homeless on the property outside of the building. Then we read the reviews, and they were terrible. No wonder the rate was so cheap. We were willing to eat the cost and went elsewhere.
Erin, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Bad
Chris, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff was very friendly
Marissa, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We went down for breakfast @ 9. They were out of almost everything and they didn’t offer to make extra eggs, bacon, sausage gravy. They said another group of people had eaten 3-4 plates of food and they ran out. This is unacceptable to me. Check out was at 11:00 why should I have to hurry down before the food runs out. They could have made more food and restricted those who had multiple plates.
