First room smelled like smoke. The second room was like a big cot bed. I found dead bedbugs and refused to stay there. They were nice enough to give my money back. I think people are renting rooms here. Just spend another $20 and stay somewhere else.

Get a tetanus shot before you go…

Do NOT stay here! We couldn’t and chose it was better to leave and sleep in our car at a travel center! Very sketchy area, it is rent by the hour, day, or week. Felt like I needed to go get a tetanus shot after leaving! Evidence of bugs, dirty comforters, stains on bedding and liked like blood spatter on ceiling.. literal dirt all around on floors, corners of room were gross, nasty closet, dirty tub, very unsecure door. People yelling outside… creepy, scary, unsafe. Felt like being in an episode of NCIS or Final Destination. Keep your money… if you need a place to stay and this is it— just go to Chillicothe and stay at the Pilot travel center in your car. The manager at Pilot let us sleep in our car in their parking lot. That was a far better choice than risking our lives, our car, and bringing home creepy crawlies from this nightmare of a place. I agree with other reviewers on here— how can I give this place a NEGITIVE FOUR STARS???

This might be the absolute worst stay I've ever experienced. The owners we're rlly nice but it doesn't over shadow the roaches burn holes in bedding. Clogged up sink. Ppl screaming in parking lot about drug deals. Room service wasn't offered the 2 days I stayed. The room smelled good when we entered but that night the roaches came out. I had no choice but to stay there or sleep in my car. Oh the Dora the explorer shower curtain rlly set the mood 😂 please know if this is your only option next to being homeless I'd take it. If there's ANY other option, take it

When we first got there, all I could see were flies and bugs on the ceiling. The sheet on the bed was filthy. The bath tub was so nasty that I had to clean it before I could use it. Their wash cloths looked like they were 10 years old.

Only stay if you don’t care about quality

All I wanted was a clean place to shower and sleep when I went to check in the office smelled bad and no one was there then once I finally got my key, I got to my room and the cleaning lady is outside screaming all night because she got fired and then the clean shower I wanted the showerhead didn’t even work. A little dribble came out of it the toilet had black mold in it And the air conditioner wouldn’t even get the room down to temperature after eight hours of running I’d really like a refund
