The room looked like it had been cleaned thoroughly, but the whole place gave off an older, in-need-of-an-overhaul vibe. The lobby and the hallway on the 2nd floor smelled especially musty, and they hallway was noticably warmer than the room. Also, the shower head was detached from the wall in the bathroom and the water pressure was very low.
Even though I used my credit card to book the room through Hotels.com as "pay on site" with no issue, the front desk called me day-of saying they couldn't run my card successfully for the hold. I had to give them another credit card over the phone (which made me very uncomfortable), or else the reservation would've been cancelled at 6pm; telling them I would be checking in late wasn't enough. The whole thing seemed fishy to me, but I didn't have time to go searching around for another reservation.
Multiple signs in the parking lot ("Park at your own risk...hotel is not responsible for loss or damage..." etc) made me feel very uneasy about the neighborhood.
