I was disappointed to find feces on the bathroom wall. There was a musty odor in the hallway and room. Although I didn't report this to the staff I know they know because they were using candles to hide the smell at the front desk.
Checking in was a breeze and the staff was friendly. I do feel like the staff cares about the guests stay.

They had availability when nowhere else did (big college football match in town). There was coffee at reception in the morning.
The place was very tired and scruffy. Worn carpets in the corridors, metal fitting in rooms were rusting, the air-con was noisy & ineffective. The in-room fridge kept waking me up.

We checked into i our room an had to leave to go to our concert but when we got back after the concert we seen live roaches in the bath room and around the room. We lifted up the mattress to check for other bugs an under the bed was a wreck and firstly. There were room cards, dirt, hair ties and other trash under there. The floor was sticky and the comforter had a big stain in it. The place smelled bad. We requested a refund but said to talk to the owner an we have yet to hear from them and it’s been a week now. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel
