I have never stayed anywhere as disgusting as this place. We found 3 cockroaches in the room. The headboard had sticky residue that my hair got stuck to when I leaned on it. Bath towels had brown and yellow stains with holes on them. The bath curtain rod was held up with balled-up tissue paper (very ghetto!!!) The whole room... more

When I read the reviews I was a little unsure about the place. When I called the reservation line and stated my concerns, they told me that they remodeled the hotel so I booked for 2 nights. We arrived at the hotel, the staff was very, very nice, polite and friendly. We got up to our room and it was... more

It's now called the Red Carpet Inn and my room was exceptional, very comfy and cozy. The new owners were very cordial and helpful. I was a bit reluctant to stay at this hotel after reading horror reviews from guests that had stayed at the hotel before the new owners took possession of it and renovations took place. I will... more

This is the worst hotel I have ever been to. It is disgustingly filthy. Our room had many roaches, the walls were stained with various fluids and other unidentifiable marks. The bed clothes were dirty and so was the bathroom. There was carpet in the room that was really disgusting and we could not take off our shoes. The toilet... more

This was the worst place I have EVER stayed. The staff was VERY rude and argumentative, we couldn't even get more shampoo packets. The room was VERY VERY dirty, the bathroom door was broken, there were ants everywhere and stickers in the beds. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. The TV got one channel that played... more

Oh my, where do I start. Well, we took this hotel because we could park our car there while we were on our cruise. (This is probably why I didn't complain, because I was leaving my cars there & I wanted them there when I got back.) When we walked in, to say disappointed is an understatement. Dirty, stuff smeared... more
