We had stayed in this hotel only a few months ago and was shocked that it had deteriorated so much. There were cobwebs in corners and under the window. The floor was sticky and the room smelled bad. There were also roaches. However, the staff was friendly.

Smoking smell

I couldn’t sleep because the smoking smell in the room. The air conditioner kept blowing out air with smell. The floor is not clean and not flat. The door is broken on the side so the cold air blows in. Even though I was asking a non smoking room, the horrible room is what they gave me. The picture showed on internet was fake.

Please do not stay here

Very disgusting, uncomfortable, and dirty. Bed sheets and couches had a bunch of cigarette holes in them, the AC was leaking, there were multiple leaks in the bathroom, the tv remote didn’t work, there were bugs, I could go on forever. Booking literally anywhere else would be the correct choice.

My "smoke-free" room stunk from cigarettes and bed throws were having many cigarette holes. I killed two large insects - possibly cockroaches. That`s enough to never stay there again.

We were here for 2 and a half hours. The area is not the best which is what to expect from the price I suppose. We felt unsafe immediately. The door didn’t close easily and the smell was absolutely atrocious. There were holes in the comforter and the bathroom was ancient. We decided we felt so unsafe that we left soon after. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

The bed, pillows were great. The shower was nice, good water pressure, clean curtain. It was warm. It was quite after 11 pm. Convenient. Yet, The place was really unclean. The Rugs hadn’t been vacuumed, microwave dirty, refrigerator dirty, the sink dirty, mirror dirty, coffee maker broke, bathtub just old I guess, had stains. Commode was nice. Cigarette burns on bed cover. Saw one roach. I think that they forgot to clean it. My stay before this one was more pleasant.

Never fall into that trap, you deserve better

When check-in, the room has not been clean, strange powder on bathtub, dirty grease on sink counter, floor seems not touched for a long time, door rusted out, smelled so bad, heard the gunshot at night, homeless and intoxicated, visit the property, no cleaning staff show up at all during the three day stay. The front desk, if it can be called that way, staff did not help at all, loffy....

When I arrived the room was dirty. There was dirt, grime and blood on the doors and walls. There was scribble all in the walls. The furniture was battered and the sheets smelled of mildew. There was prostitution happening in the parking lot and in the rooms (with the doors wide open in plain view of the manager). I refused to stay there with my daughter after a long road trip and instead went down the street to a clean and safe Holiday Inn. The manager assured me my money would be refunded. A month later they charged me again for the room that I never used.

Not what I thought! It should have been better!

The room was listed as non smoking and I could not detect any odors, but the spread had cigarette burns in it. There was follicle evidence that the tub was not properly washed out. Aside from the window heater/ac, there was an auxiliary heater set up in a corner, by the bed, that ran constantly. It was also plugged into an extension cord that made me feel unsafe. The sheets were well past their use as evidenced by the many holes in the sheets. The free breakfast was not good because the machine was out of order leaving only coffee, and suspect cinnamon rolls that following everything else, was probably not fresh. Pictures attached.
Sheet Holes showing wear
More sheet holes
Looks unsafe as the fridge and microwave also used this same outlet!

We (wife and 2 kids) arrived late around 10 pm. There were people (renters for the night) on the 2nd floor balcony creating a weird seen. There is no lobby to check in. Check in was through a glass pass box that sets the vibe that you are in unsafe place that the staff is scared to meet you without a glass barrier. The only positive thing I can mention is while I tried to check in through the pass box a male attendant came in from outside and apologized and talked to us in a friendly way. I asked him about the parking place and he said he thinks it is safe. Still we staid outside the building until we got the key to our room. The room was filthy, infested with insects in the bed area on the walls, the floor and in the bath room. The blanket was visibly torn and the bedsheets did not look clean. We discussed and decided it was unsafe and impossible to sleep in the room so we started calling hotels in the area. We left the room after about 15 min to stay at the nearby hotel. In the morning we returned to hand in the room key, again thru the glass pass box, I also was hoping there could be a lobby where you can go inside to talk to the staff (I thought the door might have been closed by the time we arrived late in the evening). No lobby, only a glass pass box! Thank you for costing us about $90 and emotional distress. I am wondering if there is inspection at all by local authorities.

Expedia, shame on you for not showing the actual picture of the property on your listing. Very deceptive. This is an old motel that has not had updates in a long time. The room smelled, the furniture is beat up, there were cigarette burns in the bedspread, and what I thought were ants were actually baby cockroaches. It was fairly clean and the water pressure was good. The bed was comfortable, but there was just a top sheet and a thin coverlet(with lots of holes), but no blanket or comforter. There were some folks just hanging around outside and music was playing late into the night. I think people may live at this place. It was fairly convenient to Duke. The 3 staff members I interacted with were extremely friendly. Wyndam needs to do a full gut job on this property.
