This hotel stay was a quick stop halfway through a long drive. While I knew from the price point it wasn't going to be the nicest hotel, I was still disappointed.
From the moment you walk in the doors, that's an overwhelming smell of pot that hits you. It permeates throughout the entire hotel. Thankfully it didn't smell in our room as bad as it did in the hallway, at first, but then the smell started wafting in. I suspect someone in the next room had started smoking it.
There were a couple people casually walking around who went back and talked to the check-in desk attendant while I was checking in. It was a little discerning having them talk in another language while the attendant was going over my info. I'm guessing they are long term residents there; that seemed to be the case in many rooms. People were a bit noisy as well.
There were no ground floor rooms available so we were on the second floor. There didn't seem to be an elevator, just the one set of stairs in the front.
The room was in decent shape. We checked out for bedbugs and was happy to not find any. The fridge was warm and assumably out of order. The water from the sink had a slightly orange tint. The window view was of a brick building just a few feet away.
We just used the room to crash for the night with our two dogs, so it was bearable. But we won't stay there again though. There was a much nicer looking hotel across the street that we will likely look into next time.
