We are used to dealing with cheap dated hotels to get a smoking room, this place was better than expected from its reviews. I do not subtract points for old furnishings, wear, etc. It was clean. Fridge worked. Neighborhood is not as bad as other reviewers said, we were not harrassed by other guests or locals. Nearby is the best 24hr IHOP we've ever been to.
TV had a big stripe through the screen and it was impossible to hook my firestic up. Oh well, will deal with that for our habit.
Points subtracted bc SHOWER DID NOT WORK. NOTHING. So took sink baths for 3 days. Didn't bother to ask for it to be fixed. I'm sure it wouldn't have been fixed at midnight, otherwise we were busy out or sleeping. I do not let cheap hotel staff into my room when I'm not there, stuff goes missing. Showering now at our next stop, I bet they'll have fun with the next guest who thinks a smoking room comes with a shower.
