Recent reviews
2.9 /5 from 229 reviews
Uneventful. the room was about what I expected for the price, which was the lowest of three hotels in the immediate vicinity.
Room not clean
Terrible hotel. Not even worth 1 star. Smelled a lot. Plus over the counter rate was lesser than what i paid at hotels.com for booking before hand. Dont book from here.
The hotel was painted yellow. Reminded me of a dump in Rosarito, Mex. Front desk shared space with breakfast area. Nearly turned around and left it was so dingy. Rooms had an old motel smell. That matched the 60's/70's decor. Flat screen TV looked anachronistic. Bathroom fan made a noisy, grating sound. Towels were not as good as ones I use to dry up dirt spots on garage floor. Facial tissue chrome surround likely hadn't been cleaned/ polished in years. Walking on bathroom tile floor produced a grimy residue on wet tub mat. Don't understand how Whyndam Resorts is affiliated with this place. A serious upgrade is needed or maybe just sell it back to Motel 6 from whom it began service.
We read many reviews that were less than 'stellar' - but, we also know how many people see things very differently. The outside paint job was not suited to the surroundings , it looked to be more suitable in Mexico or perhaps some other tropical region. But, upon entering, the desk gal was polite and professional - the room seemed clean. (Although the pillows smelled as if they needed some cleaning of past guess sweat - we bought some cheap pillows at Walmart) Now, the room appointments are very dated, yet, that does not change the fact they everything was in good shape! The satellite tv 'gave up the ghost' during the rain storm though- GET CABLE!!!! The refrigerator worked great - and was larger than the ones I have used in other places. It would be nice to have some visitor guides in the rooms as well. Overall, we gave it a '3' - it wasn't sparkling new, but, it was comfortable. It also was the cheapest - so we believe they did well by us. I would recommend this place to others who are budget conscious.

VIDEO: Korean Baseball Team Have Robots For Fans In Stadium
BY: John Mamola
This is just creepy.
In South Korea, the Hanwha Eagles have come up with a unique and customer service friendly way of providing robots to stomp and yell unifying chants for those who cannot attend the game in person.
Maybe the Rays should....never mind.
Don't believe it? Check it out for yourself.
Tom Jones was born and raised in a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and studied English at the University of South Florida from 1982 to 1986.
He began his writing career with the St. Petersburg Evening Independent in 1985. He then went on to work for the St. Petersburg Times from 1987 to 1991, the Tampa Tribune from 1991 to 1996, the St. Petersburg Times again from 1996 to 2000 and the Minneapolis Star-Tribune from 2000 to 2003. He then rejoined the St. Petersburg Times for a third time in his career in 2003, where he worked ever since.
Jones has spent most of his career covering the NHL, including being a beat writer for more than 15 years of the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Minnesota. Wild. He also spent two years on the Tampa Bay Rays beat. He then become a columnist at Times starting in 2007. Jones has won several national and state writing awards, including a top 10 game story in the nation in 1998 as named by the Associated Press Sports Editors.
Over the course of his career, Jones has covered the Olympics, the World Series, the Super Bowl, the Stanley Cup finals, baseball and hockey all-star games, the NCAA basketball tournament and the Frozen Four.
Jones lives in St. Petersburg with his wife, Patty, and sons, Sam and Andy.
With over two decades of reporting on professional and collegiate sports for the Tampa Bay Times, through performance and work experience in journalism and broadcasting in television and radio, Rick Stroud has cultivated an impressive list of sources and utilized his knowledge to produce an outstanding body of work in both print and electronic mediums.
During his career, Stroud has reported on national sporting events including 22 Super Bowls, the NCAA Final Four, and the Major League Baseball Playoffs. While working as the beat writer assigned to the University of Florida at the Times, Stroud's stories documented NCAA rules violations by the football and basketball programs. The stories for which Stroud won second place for Best Investigative Reporting from the Associated Press Sports Editors, led to sanctions against both Gators programs.
Since 2004, Stroud has appeared as an NFL Insider for ESPN2's First Take and is a regular contributor to ESPN's SportsCenter, NFL Live, Outside the Lines and Herd with Colin Cowherd on ESPN Radio. He also contributes to NFL Network's Total Access.
Stroud becan covering the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the National Football League in 1990. Since then, the Bucs have undergone seven coaching changes, the death of owner Hugh Culverhouse and the sale of the franchise to billionaire owner Malcolm Glazer and a stadium referendum. They also celebrated a Super Bowl XXVII victory. His reporting was referenced in Tony Dungy's best seller, Quiet Strength, particularly because it was Stroud who informed Dungy of the Bucs' plan to replace him with Giants Super Bowl coach Bill Parcells.
A former Div. I-A baseball player at Arkansas , Stroud brings a unique perspective to sports reporting. During the NFL lockout in 2011, he also served as one of the Times' beat writers responsible for covering the Tampa Bay Rays.

· Scholarly publications: institutional funding, intellectual property, and peer review challenges
· Integration of new media with teaching, learning, and research
· Academic integrity in the digital age, including debates around how to define plagiarism and the value of technological detection systems
· Knowledge production, collection, and dissemination for academic librarians, and digital and information literacy for all

Nordstrom is headed to the beach.
This story first appeared in the July 16, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
The Seattle-based department store chain announced plans Tuesday to open a full-line unit in Macerich's Santa Monica Place mall, which is in the midst of a major overhaul. Nordstrom is the first new tenant announced for the Santa Monica, Calif., property and the first significant retail component of the beachside center's $265 million redevelopment.
Nordstrom also disclosed plans for stores at two other Macerich properties in California — the relocation of its existing Cerritos store at Los Cerritos Center and a remodel and expansion of its Broadway Plaza store in Walnut Creek.
The moves come even though Nordstrom said in May that it was struggling with soft sales in California, which accounts for 32 percent of its business.
Nordstrom is now the linchpin of Santa Monica Place, the 550,000-square-foot indoor mall that Macerich bought in 1999 for about $130 million from Rouse Co. The company is transforming the Frank Gehry-designed mall into a three-level, open-air retail center that will include a rooftop dining deck. It is to re-open in fall 2009.
The three-level, 122,000-square-foot Nordstrom store is to open in fall 2010. The center is adjacent to the popular outdoor pedestrian shopping strip Third Street Promenade, which draws some 40,000 to 50,000 visitors on weekends.
"We want to bring in tenants and merchandise as if we owned Third Street so that it's a complement, and take Santa Monica Place more upscale," said Randy Brant, Macerich's executive vice president of real estate.

Packed full of A-list stars, stunning locations and sexy songs, Race has all the essential ingredients of a Bollywood masala movie. With veteran director duo Abbas and Mustan Burmawalla at the helm, you're also guaranteed plenty of thrills and spills in this tale of two warring step brothers (Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna) competing in a game of life and death. Set in South Africa against the glamorous backdrop of horse racing, there are plenty of studs on show here – and that's just the lead actors. Suspend your disbelief to enjoy the kitsch ride.
Having competed in cycle races as kids, Ranvir (Khan) and Rajiv (Khanna) continue their competitive brotherly streak into their adult lives. As the owners of a stud farm in Durban, Ranvir's passion for horse racing and gambling is matched by Rajiv's obsession with alcohol. It's only when fillies of the two legged variety enter the scene that the games really begin. Ranvir's PA (Katrina Kaif) is smitten by her boss, but it's sultry ramp model Sonia (Bipasha Basu) who steals both his and Rajiv's heart. One wedding and a steamy affair later, all is not what is seems as double crosses lead to a contract killing.
Littered with more twists and turns than Silverstone, Race is certainly a visual roller coaster of a ride. True to form Abbas and Mustan ensure the action and cast look slick, but falter by allowing Khan and Khanna to ham it up. It's left to Anil Kapoor's wise-cracking investigator and his bimbo assistant (Sameera Reddy) to inject humour and sort out fact from fiction. Shiraz Ahmed's screenplay may travel at break-neck speed, hurtling towards an obvious conclusion, but you can't but help but get carried away with this farce. Stylish but silly.
Race (2008) is out in the UK on 21st March 2008 2008.

The Two Keys to Raising a Genius!
Some critics have raised eyebrows whenever I have said, 'All of the children I work with are geniuses,' or 'I have only taught geniuses.'
This Holiday Season Be Mindful of The 'Chatter'
Our lives our full of what I refer to as 'chatter.' This chatter can be broken down into two distinct types: Internal and external.
Most Valuable Gift to Child Could Be Presence
During the holiday season, it's so easy to get caught up in what we do - buying presents, chauffeuring the kids to special activities, or cooking a big family dinner - that we sometimes forget to reflect on who we are.
Heplful Tips to Prepare Children for 'Real World' School
Children enter school full of curiosity, eager to experience, wanting to be seen and heard. They enter school with the gift of spontaneity as they explore a strange new place intended for learning.
Parents Must Resist The Temptation to Become Teachers
Most parents have heard their child complain, 'But I don't know how to do it!' The natural inclination is to respond, 'Let me help.' Unfortunately, this leads many parents to cross the line of parenting into teaching.
Teach Your Child to Close The Circle, Not Simply Complete Tasks
Before jumping to extreme conclusions such as a pre-diagnosis of ADHD and considering testing, I advise attempting small strategies for change to see if they address the dilemma.
The Processes for Learning are More Important Than Trivia
In our children's generation, the definition of success is changing. The style in the workplace is shifting from management by one boss and many workers to teamwork and independent action.
Think of Early Reading Products as Circus Tricks
One of the statistical understandings I usually share with parents who are considering an accelerated curriculum of any kind is the fact that around the third grade, childhood development rates begin to even out.
Learning to Estimate Working Capacity Will Pay Dividends for Life
What adult hasn't felt overwhelmed when the 'To Do' list at work and home keeps getting longer? Unfortunately, this feeling is now experienced by school children at younger and younger ages.
Focus on Grades as Clues to What Still Needs to Be...
Grades are not meant to be a badge of honor or shame to the recipient; they are simply notations that give a numerical reflection of how much our child has left to learn.

Shades Tattoos and Bodypiercing
Professional tattoo parlors in Eastern Africa are not as common as sycamore-fig trees in the foothills of Judah. Shades is the only one I could find. The space isn't inspiring--it's two small rooms past the back door of a crowded arcade--but they use sterile needles and fresh razors. Besides, hip New York City bars put a lot of effort into that kind of inaccessibility. Most of my time there was spent trying to access the picture I brought. We eventually had to go down the street to an internet cafe to print it, and even then the artist worked looking directly from my smartphone screen. They did good work and I probably made their day by complaintlessly spending half a million shillings (about $175 US) in their shop.Related to:

Quick Access to Animals
If you are really stuck for time in Kampala or Entebbe and don't have time to go up country but want to see animals then you can go to the protected wildlife sanctuary in Entebbe. It has a beautiful botanical garden park and has a number of African animals that are protected (and get quite close to) such as Lions, Zebras, Giraffes and many more. You can also buy lunch and sit on Lake Victoria. It is a great way to spend an afternoon.Add to your Trip Planner
Relaxing Day
This beach is definitely a highlight of any trip to Entebbe. Most travellers go to Entebbe because it is close to Lake Victoria but they usually stay sheltered away from the local scene which is fine but you are missing out not only meeting interesting locals but seeing a local slice of life. There is a beach that is fairly well known around Entebbe called Aero Beach (located near the airport) hence the name and it is a really cool spot to hang out for a day. It has place to relax, sells bbq food and cold drinks and has volleyball nets etc. There is an airplane on the beach which adds to the overall vibe and has funny statues of famous people from around the world. The beach is usually full of local families and couples but don't let that put you off. If you want a local experience and good fun, Aero beach is for you.Add to your Trip Planner
Gorilla spotters eager and reporting for duty!
Chances are that the morning you go gorilla trekking, you'll experience a whole range of conflicting emotions, which are likely to include the following:
1. Am I really paying good money to get up this much before dawn?
2. How can I possibly have spent this enormous amount of money on a single day's activity that has no guarantee of success?
3. Having had a good look at the impossibly dense vegetation and daunting terrain, I now know exactly why it's called 'Bwindi Impenetrable Forest', and it doesn't fill me with great confidence.
4. How can I possibly have spent this enormous amount of money on a single day's activity that has no guarantee of success?
5. What happens if a silverback charges me?
6. Worse still, what happens if I don't see a silverback at all?
7. How can I possibly have spent this enormous amount of money on a single day's activity that has no guarantee of success?
And so on ...
Rest assured (although given the gruelling hike ahead, 'rest' is probably entirely the wrong word to use in this context) that you are about to be privy to one of the most unique wildlife experiences, and frankly some things are priceless, so hang the expense!
At the time we visited (March 2013), gorilla trekking cost an eyewatering USD500 per day per person in Bwindi. The only way to feel positive about a number this large is to realise that this represents a 33% discount on the cost of gorilla trekking in neighbouring Rwanda (USD750 at the time) and the saving is certainly persuasive, although you need to factor in the Ugandan visa fee (USD50 at the time) and the cost of transport into Bwindi. Rates are also lower in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), although this depends on your appetite for risk, as at the time of writing, this was not particularly stable part of the world.
If it makes you feel any better, the 'success rate' on gorilla treks is reported to be over 90% because the trackers keep such close tabs on the gorillas. However, these are wild animals that roam freely in their natural habitat, and, as I've said, there's no absolute guarantee of success. How you would cope with this disappointment, I simply don't know, but maybe that small risk of failure adds a certain piquant thrill to the experience.Add to your Trip Planner
Gorilla conservation dancers at Nkuringo Lodge
If you're lucky enough to be staying at the wonderfuly hospitable Nkuringo Gorilla Lodge, the kids from the local village will visit in the late afternoon to do a 'gorilla conservation dance' for the guests.
Be warned that you will be invited to join in - yet another opportunity for me to demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt that this white woman can't dance!
Usually I'm not wild on this sort of thing, but it's executed with charm and good humour, and even if I have my doubts as to whether the money they collect actually goes towards the gorillas, it doesn't feel particularly exploitative.Add to your Trip Planner
You're never too young to learn photography!
Kids love photography - and especially the immediacy that the age of digital photography has brought.
I won't deny that it takes an act of faith to allow a child loose with a camera (particularly an expensive one), but we have learned that after a few stiff lectures about the consequences of abusing the camera, they have repaid our trust. And whilst we wouldn't allow then to run wild with the cameras all day, in short, supervised bursts, you can gain an intriguing insight into a child's view of your trip.
The cardinal rule in our family is that you're not allowed to use the camera unless you have the strap around your neck and fingers must be kept away from the lens on pain of death. There are also some practical challenges that need to be mastered - such as the fine art of 'counterbalance' when our skinnymalinks of a Small Son is using the 'rocket launcher' lens!
I am fascinated by the fact that both have learned the discipline of selecting what they want to photograph, and composing their shot so that they do their subject matter justice. When we return from a trip, they are allowed to select a limited number of their (and other family members') photos for printing that they can then put in their own photo album as a personalised record of their holiday.Add to your Trip Planner
What happens if I can't hike any longer?
By now, you should have got the message that gorilla trekking is not for the faint hearted, and that it requires a certain degree of physical fitness and mental determination.
I should qualify this by saying that you don't require Olympian levels of fitness, but you do require both mobility and endurance. We were allocated to the gorilla group that was furthest from the muster point, which required a hike of 3.5 hours to get to the gorillas, and 3 hours back and although I have a fairly high level of fitness, I found it tough. The paths were as well maintained as could be expected in a pristine montane rainforest, but the going was tough, and some of the section were extremely steep and muddy, requiring some scrambling.
So what happens if you feel as though you can't go on? Well, your options are frankly limited. The trackers stop every so often to allow you to rest, but there's a limit to the number of breaks that they can allow as this holds back the other members of the group and may compromise your chances of finding the gorillas. If you really get into trouble, then there is the possibility that one of the trackers can accompany you back to the starting point, but this is not an option that they are likely to entertain lightly.
In the worst case (for example, where someone has broken a limb or suffered a heart attack) they can radio for help. Under such circumstances, they will probably put together a makeshift stretcher like the one pictured above (which we came across soon after we entered the forest) and porter the injured person out of the forest to the point where they can be medically evacuated by vehicle or helicopter to hospital. The price tag of such an intervention are huge (of the order of thousands of USD) and you'll sign a disclaimer before you start trekking, accepting responsibility for these costs such such a situation eventuate. Thus, you need to scrutinise your travel insurance to make sure that you're covered for this sort of accident and be absolutely sure that you have no pre-existing conditions that could invalidate your insurance cover.
I would therefore urge you to take honest stock of your abilities before you commit to gorilla trekking, and perhaps do some hiking in the period leading up to your trip to build your fitness. If you have a medical condition that may compromise either your mobility or your endurance, then think twice about whether this is really a sensible decision for you.Add to your Trip Planner
Nip across the equator
Uganda straddles the equator, and it doesn't take much imagination to guess that the cheesiest photo opportunity is to take a picture of your loved ones with a foot in both hemispheres. But as this has been consigned to the family photo album, I'll spare you that ... :)
Queen Elizabeth National Park offers just such an opportunity, and if you take the photograph facing north, then you can also secure the dramatic backdrop of the Ruwenzori range, which lurks ominously on the DRC side of the border.
Just bear in mind that although this is a main road, it's still in a national park, and as we'd been photographing lion barely a couple of kilometres away only a couple of hours earlier, we were glad to be with a game ranger who was on the lookout for - and equipped to deal with - carnivorous natives!Add to your Trip Planner
How close can you get to the gorillas?
Nothing prepares you for your first sight of gorillas.
Our first glimpse was of this pair of young gorillas - probably only a couple of years old - who were playing on a large fallen branch. Their 'rough and tumble' game was enchanting, but curious in that it seemed to be conducted in slow motion that struck me as the visual equivalent of hearing a 45rpm record being played on 33 1/3 speed. In general, gorillas move in a languid, unhurried manner, and the strangely slow nature of even youngsters' play lent an otherwordly quality to the experience.
The sight was even more striking because the gorilla group had gathered in a sunny glade by a stream, and after several hours of trekking throught the dark forest, the contrast of the bright sunlight and vivid green vegetation was dazzling.
These gorillas are habituated to people, and will therefore allow you to get very close provided that you proceed with caution and in strict accordance with the instructions from your guides. There are clear rules which dictate how closely you can approach the animals, although obviously if the animals choose to approach you, then you have no control over this, and will be advised to stay still. On occasion, the gorillas actually touch visitors, and although this didn't happen in our case, it must be a absolutely aweinspiring experience.
The limits on how close you can get to the gorillas are dictated both by safety considerations and - more importantly - minimising the risk of the gorillas catching human diseases, to which they are sadly highly susceptible. Important though we think we might be, there are arguably too many humans - and certainly far too few gorillas - in the world, and to put the health of the remaining few at risk both selfish and is irresponsible. For this reason, at the pre trek meeting, you'll be asked to confirm that you're not suffering from any infectious diseases (particularly broncial infections).Add to your Trip Planner
Book your gorilla trekking permits well in advance
Only a small number of gorilla trekking permits are issued per day - I speak under correction, but I think it's 24 for Bwindi - so in order to avoid disappointment, you'd be wise to book well in advance, especially if you're visiting in peak season.
In quieter periods, people who just turn up can apparently get lucky, but if you have gone to the considerable effort and expense of getting to what is a pretty remote location, I'm not sure that I'd take the chance. Backpackers with more time on their hands might be able to hang around for a few days until spare permits are available (assuming that there are backpackers who can afford this expense), but if you're on a tight schedule, then this is unlikely to be practical.Add to your Trip Planner
Some tips on photographing gorillas
Let's be blunt, gorillas - along with black bears and black birds (which seems to be every second species in outback Australia) - are a bugger to photograph.
Firstly they're black, and have dark brown eyes, so there is very little color contrast for your camera to pick up on. As a result, even photos that are perfectly composed and in focus can look wrong, because the image is of one large, homogenously black shape with little other definition.
Secondly, gorillas live in dense forest, where the light is subdued, and even when they venture out into open areas along streams and rivers, the weather is frequently overcast, which makes for often dim light conditions.
Experienced photographers will doubtless be able to endlessly tweak exposure lengths, aperture widths and all sorts of technological bells and whistles to overcome these challenges. But what does that mean for rank amateurs such as myself who belong to the 'point and fire' school of photography?
Well, firstly, try to photograph the gorilla where the light is best - ideally when the light is catching its eye to highlight the contrast.
Secondly, if your camera is on an automatic setting, it will lengthen the exposure time to compensate for poor light conditions. In layman's terms, this means that the photo takes longer to be taken, and thus, you need to keep very still to avoid the picture blurring. This is one instance where a tripod would be a great help, but is unlikely to be practical in this context. In the absence of a tripod or other support, then a trick worth trying is to take a deep breath in and then hold it as you take the photo, which tends to steady your stance.
However, for most, the most straightforward solution is to simply take as many photos as possible, which will hopefully maximise your chances of taking a few decent snaps - if you fear that your bear encounter may be fleeting, then also consider using the sports photography function (if your camera offers this) which will take many photos in very swift succession. Take heart from the fact that professional photographers often take literally hundreds of shots in order to produce a single photo that is worthy of publication, so you shouldn't be ashamed of adopting the same strategy. This is where digital photography is such as blessing for amateurs and professionals alike, so just be sure that your camera is armed with a photo card that has a high storage capacity.
In the interests of relationship maintenance, just make sure you weed through your photos in order to select the best few before inflicting 300 out-of-focus snaps of a blurred black gorillalike shape in the undergrowth on your friends and family!Add to your Trip Planner
Just when you thought that you were done ...
The hardest part of our entire gorilla trek was the last long slog up through a seemingly vertical potato field, which had been bad enough on the way down,but was infinitely worse on the way back.
As an aside, potatoes (confusing known locally as 'Irish potatoes') - grow very well in South West Uganda, probably because of the cool upland climate.
By then we were tired and sore, and after nearly three hours route march, the initial euphoria of our time with the gorillas had subsided. The only way I made it to the top of this slope was by chanting the mantra, "I HATE POTATOES" under my breath!Add to your Trip Planner
Beautiful papyrus swamps line Bwindi's rivers
The tourist literature on the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest focuses almost exclusively on the gorillas, with passing reference to its glorious steep ridges covered with dense montane rainforest. So it comes as something of the surprise to discover that Bwindi hosts other very different ecosystems which offer their own unique wildlife spotting opportunities.
Papyrus swamps are among my favourite ecosystems because they almost guarantee stellar bird spotting - and, if you're lucky - an amphibian or two. Quite apart from the twitching opportunities, I am also enchanted by the beauty of the papyrus itself, growing in massed ranks with its photogenic foliage heads swaying gracefully: it's not hard to see why it's so beloved by landscape architects.Add to your Trip Planner
The steepest fields you're ever likely to see
The steepness of some of the fields that are cultivated in the corner of the world where Rwanda, Uganda and DRC meet boggles the mind and speaks volumes as to the shortage of available agricultural land to feed a hungry population.
Take this random example, which is by no means untypical - and yes, those specks are women actually working these vertiginous fields. Given the choice, I would never venture onto this steep a slope without a safety harness, let alone work there all day, but if there's no other land available, you have no choice.Add to your Trip Planner

I read a lot of this place and some times find out that negative comments about a place can be a bit over blown. so I stayed here on night to grab a cheap rate. Here is a fair of this place. First the good stuff. The locations is great right off I-40, McDonalds next door and pilot truck stop for gas. very friendly helpful staff and quick check in and great prices around 40 bucks. They have a bar on site called CP's sports bar. its small and friendly with TV's. The local regulars are nice and the truck drivers are nice as well as bar staff. good prices. had fun.
now the bad. front desk told me it was my lucky night because I was getting upgraded to the best room they have. How exciting. well as I parked the car in front of the room the screen on the window was pulled down as if someone had tried to break into the room. but looking around I noticed most likely this place gets no maintenance and upkeep. That was a worrisome sign. walked into the inside hallway to my room and the hallway was covered .in trash. I mean lots of trash. trash cans were over flowing appeared to have been emptied a few weeks ago. Looked like it had not been picked up in a long time. carpet looked un-vacuumed for a long time also. then the upgraded room. oh my god. nice big room and nice layout but that's where anything positive stopped. well no bugs so one more positive thing. the carpet had not been vacuumed since I would guess 1945 and that's being kind. the bathroom had not cleaned. Even found a used wash cloth in the bathtub. looked like some snot and blood on the sink counter. and the toilet (and you can tell real easy) has not seen a toilet brush for cleaning since it was installed. no mold, no bugs, but just long term unclean. I would imagine by looking this place is used by people working in the energy field and they stay here long term for cheap rates. It really looked more like this hotel just does not do maintenance nor does it clean in a very long time. I rarely post a review and rarely do negative ones but people need to be aware this place lacks cleaning. I travel a lot and always looking for cheap rates to save money but have never stayed a place this filthy. NEVER this bad anywhere I have ever stayed. cleaning is so simple to do there is no excuse for this.
