Arrived at night. Walked into check in with only 1 person working. Also walked in to intense smells of cigarettes and weed. Received our room key and proceeded into a room where the smell of dirt/mold/ and something I have never smelt welcomed us. Checked the bed. No mattress cover and behind the bed was tons of dust and hair. The bathroom door was rotting from bottom and there was pink mold in corners of bath tub. Went back to reception she showed me another room and it was the same. We check out immediately. Get to our car and there is a drug deal going on in car next to us. A child was being told he owed the dealer money. Anyway sped away in disgust! Went on Expedia and chatted with a rep. She called the hotel and the same receptionist said we never checked out. So I called the receptionist and she remembered we did. What a mess! This place should be condemned

Our room looked nice as you walked in, but it was dirty, had not been vacuumed, accumulated dust throughout the room, the bathroom was dirty (left over soap in the shower from another customer), doors and door knobs filthy, mirrors not clean, ac unit dirty along with window sill. Some homeless folks staying there. The maids were unfriendly, as you could see them walking out of the laundry room/supply closet with their dirty dishes from the continental breakfast that they ate from. Front lobby staff were very professional and nice. Lots of people hanging out, outside and just didn’t feel completely safe.
