Is a great place and affordable when you know you just going to use the place to sleep and you spend your time exploring. Clean , comfortable and safe. Is nothing fancy but the important is that is clean and safe
Door didn’t close nor did any of the locks work. We couldn’t get in for an hour. They told us to go to a different hotel after ignoring us. Floor, walls, everything was gross and would never recommend anyone ever stay there

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
There is no staff on site. There is a number to call and they are at their sister property. The girl I spoke to on the phone was kind and helped me get checked in. The building is older but redone. Very clean on the inside, smelled of cleaning solution. Though there were what looked to be like a plant coming from the ceiling in the bathroom near the shower. The floors are recently redone. The bed was adequate but not the most comfortable, neither were the pillows. Convenient being right off the highway. The air conditioner was quite loud when turned on. Parking is easy right in front of the room.
Everything was what we needed. I couldn't rate the staff, because we had no interaction with staff, except through texting. This time of year, at least, there is no one on-site, and I was worried about check-in and room codes, etc. But it turned out to be okay, and we were happy.
