Busted walls, ceiling, and box springs to the beds… however that wasn’t even the worst druggies all over the place woke up COVERED in bed bug bites. I was promised a call from the supervisor but was warned this business is ran by “the cheapest people on earth” and of course no call received. It is a cheap hotel however they’re not following health and safety laws… DO NOT STAY HERE!!

When checking in I was very condescending informed they do not accept military ID's as a valid form of id. The lady checking me in was snarky. The cement stairs leading to the 2nd story where detaching from the building and i am betting would fail a code inspection. Wifi did not work and after dealing with the lady during check in it was not worth the hassle to complain about. The bedding had several cigarette burns. You would think in a non smoking room they would at least look at that. On the good side the gentleman we checked out with in the morning was very pleasant.
Response from Guest Relations on 14 Feb,2024
Dear Phillip,Guest feedback is always welcomed and appreciated. Rest assured, we will use your comments as a training opportunity to ensure our stellar hospitality is provided at all times. However, we apologize for any lapse in service you experienced during check-in. We hope you had a safe trip home, and should your travels bring you back to Goodlettsville, we hope you will consider us for your accommodations.

rundown
Upon trying to check in I was informed to check in before 3PM was a $20 charge. I declined. The room itself was okay, carpet dirty. The outside of the building was disgusting with garbage in bags in the hallway the entire time I was there. Also the lock broke on my door so for the last 3 days of my stay I had to have someone from the office let me in the room. Overall the hotel is rundown and a mess.

We were given the wrong room upon check-in. We booked a deluxe King room and were given a regular king room. We went back to the front desk and they fixed it without any issues. The door to our room, 248, didn't close or lock properly. We pulled it closed firmly behind us when we left but when we returned we were able to open it very easily. Both rooms we were in had lots of cigarette burns on both the sheets and on the comforter. There was a dirty towel on the back of the bathroom door. Some of the bathroom tiles were dirty and grout was missing.
