Crickets and clogged toilet
At check-in, there’s a sign on counter that there may be crickets in your room. It said it’s cricket season and there’s nothing they can do about it. Got to room and the toilet is clogged up with feces. Call front desk and they tell me to come down and they’ll put me in a different room

The sheets were nasty but we had brought blankets and our own pillows so we just stripped the bed. Some bugs but that was just the area. For the price, it was exactly what we needed.
