• Nothing.
• Dirty room, tub, stank - smelled like wet dog when turned on cooler. Safety a concern drinking and partying in parking lot, strip clubs surrounding.

“Very disappointing. Did not feel safe. Even security lock was broken on door. Dirty, stank. Would not recommend. VERY EXPENSIVE for what you get.”

• The tub looked like the rinse-basin in ICU.

“First, it's not a hotel, it's a skuzzy motel surrounded by at least four strip clubs, a couple liquor stores, and a Wal-Mart down the road. The rooms are disgustingly dirty, the hot water didn't work during my stay, and the manager on duty was not friendly. The free wifi was completely erratic and totally useless.”

• The pool.
• Free shuttle wasn't free - coasted 4$.

“Ok for staying just a night when waiting for a plane. The hairdryers in two rooms didn't work. Friendly staff at daytime.”

• I way s very much disappointed with everything in overall.
• The fact that we asked for a non smoking room and the room smelled like pure cigarettes and the sheets where stain too. The bathroom door was dirty.

“The bathroom doors where dirty, and the covers, and sheets where stained and smell bad. I am simply disappointed with the place in overall. My wife definitely would never want to experience that again.”

• Location - close to airport.
• Location - nude bar across the street.

“Good place to stay if you're just catching an early morning flight the next day. Busy highway, but there was a grocery store and restaurants within walking distance. Not high-quality, but for the price what can you expect.”

• Location and proximity to a variety of restaurants.
• Was not clean.

“I do not mind staying at an economy level hotel however the rooms (we tried two) smelled like smoking roomer that had been covered up with a spray or possibly the carpet were dirty) and upon closer inspection the room itself was not very clean (i.e. Night stand had stains, telephone was gross, bathroom floor was dirty along the walls, etc.) The hotel staff was very difficult to understand which made every interaction frustrating. I would not frequent this hotel again.”

• nothing.
• Dirty, holes in the walls, smelled.

“The toilet was not clean. There were cigarette burns everywhere: blankets, toilet seats, rugs. The bed linen had a cigarette odor. This seemed to be the hotel where people would bring the working girl to after hours from the bar three buildings down the road.”

“My experience at this hotel was poor. The room I was assigned was not well kept, the air conditioner did not work and the hotel would not exchange the room.”

“I checked into my room and realized that I forgot something in my car. When I went to access my room again the safety bar on the door would not allow me to open the room. I had to have the repair guy come and they then cut off that locking "security" device. The next morning I went to leave the room and the door would not open as the door knob was now broken. All in all not a "safety" hotel and the price would have to be a lot cheaper in order for me to stay there.”

• Location.
• It was Nasty, needs a good power wash.

“This hotel needs to be closed for renovations. I had to stuff under the door with a wet towel so the cold air could say in. No housekeeper can to clean the room. After we got back at 9pm we had to leave the room and call for on. It was jus horrible I turned by 5 nights into 2 nights and left. It¿s a great location for a one night crash if you met someone at the strip club which is across the street as well as there is one next door.”

• It was close to the stadium that I needed to get to, and the people were nice.
• Too many strip joints in the area, and the sex channels were not blocked, if I had children with me this would not have been appropriate.

“ As I said above the people were very nice and respectful. But the fact that there were only a few channels to watch on the TV. and after 10pm 2 of those channels only showed sex flicks (soft porn) I was appalled that they were not parentally blocked. If I would have had my 2 teenage sons with me and they had woke up and watched that I would have been extremely upset. I did notice families with children in the hotel, and I feel that it should not be that readily available, there should be a code or something so that those channels can only be seen by those who actually wish to see them. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.”

• Proximity to restaurants.
• Proximity to three strip clubs.

“The hotel was inexpensive. The hotel was loud and it was very hard to sleep. The pool was small but nice. The staff that we met were kind but not overly helpful. We would probably not stay here again if given a choice.”

• It had security cameras all over.
• Blood stained pillow case!!

“I would not stay at this hotel. I was traveling with my two young girls and my mother. We did not stay for the second night at this hotel, due to the poor conditions that it had, and we did not feel safe. It showed the hotel convenient to family fun attractions, which maybe true but you have to get past all the nude strip clubs and bars.”
