It should be removed from the hosting list. Good attention at check in. Disappointment when arriving at the room, an invasion of cockroaches coming out of the floor carpet, torn sheets with cigarette burn holes. Dirty bathroom and in poor condition. Room with unpleasant smell. Old and dirty furniture, rusty lamps. Horrible sanitary conditions. We left the place and went to another hotel.

Not sure if it was the mold in the shower or the urine stained mattresses that gave the room it's fragrance... I can not believe expedia, and AARP are associated with this hotel.

The room was horrible. It smelled awful. The refrigerator was very nasty. Was not clean at all. The bathroom was also nasty. I would like a full refund. I wouldn’t ever stay at this place and would not recommend no one else to. It is not sanitary at all. It smelt like someone just urinated in the room and just left it there for months.

This property was soooo disgusting. I’m shocked Expedia is even listing this facility. The rooms were filthy, beddings included. The bathroom door wouldn’t even close properly. As soon as we checked in we decided to leave and find something else.

Run down old motel , poor fitting sheets, rough tiny towels damaged furniture. A great value at $59 but it wasn’t.
