Terrible hotel, awful area. Felt incredibly unsafe. Hotel was dirty and smelled of *****. Walked in and then immediately back out.

I rarely comment and even rarer leave a negative comment. I had chosen this hotel as it was close to Bush Gardens knowing it was a simple hotel but hoping it was clean. But what I found was rundown dirty hotel and an unacceptable room. The door had marks from breaking in, paint was pealing from walls, particularly in the bathroom, the carpet had a musty smell, there was white power under the AC, the windows had probably not been cleaned since months, the dresser was in a state of disrepair with falling front plates, microwave and fridge were dented and probably not been cleaned in a long time, the curtain had stains etc. The only good thing I could say about this place was that the front desk clerk was friendly. Cf. photos

Mold in the shower. Disgusting carpets, walls filthy, bed dress dirty and used, a nasty stay specially when you check it late and there is no way to cancel.

Do not stay here. NASTY!!!! Found a contact in the sheets so they obviously are NOT changing the sheets between stays. 0/10!!!!! Stay in your car before this room.

The staff was very friendly and the room was as clean as they could get something that run down. The room was dark with dark bedspreads and minimal lighting. The lampshade was literally hanging on by a thread. The shower was water scale marked and rust stained but appeared to be clean beyond that. The bed should have been thrown away years ago. One was so dented where people would sit that you'd almost roll out of bed on that side. The other bed squeaked so badly that it sounded like the rigging of a dilapidated shrimp boat. Neither was comfortable in any way at all. On the plus side, the front desk clerk was very helpful and friendly. I'd avoid this hotel until they do some serious updating - even if it's just replacing the beds. Also - a reminder to the hotel - it's obviously time to call the exterminator - when I turned the lights on at 2 in the morning, bugs went scampering in all directions. Gross.

This a run down hotel. I should have know better not to make reservations there . The room looked like a crack motel in movies . It was nightmare. Disgusting, unsanitary. Thank goodness we were able to run out of there with a refund .
