Bad experience at this hotel. Do not stay here. They have bed bugs—my friend and I were bitten badly. Very uncomfortable and unacceptable.

Surfaces were clean but floors were DIRTY. Bathtub was dirty. Put water on the floor in the bathroom and swoosh around a hand towel to clean it and it turned dark grey almost immediately. Woman at front desk was very nice and gave us extra towels immediately. But the room was outdated and dirty. My bare feet turned black/brown on the bottom after the shower when I walked on the rug. Room 332. Hallways were dingy/dirty too or we would've asked for another room. Im sure its more of the same. Not worth the bother
