The room was nice and clean, the staff was nice, the bed was comfy, the price was good, and the bathroom was big. The only complaint is there was no breakfast. There’s a space for it, but nothing. The place looks a little dated, but it’s exactly what we needed after driving al day. I’d definitely stay here again.

Our non-smoking room smelled like smoke, but was otherwise clean. The room temperature was fine and beds were acceptable. The toilet tended to overfill rather than flush effectively. The pool and spa were closed. The desk staff were nice. Overall, could have been better but acceptable for the price.

Pet friendly and very dated. Sub par coffee at breakfast. Not a lot of breakfast items. All the walls and trim work need fresh paint - stains and chipped paint everywhere. Old and stained bathroom fixtures. Moldy shower curtain. The linens were OK but did not have the normal sanitized, bleach smell. Questionable cleanliness and sanitizing.

Staff was not overly friendly, very indifferent to if we existed. Breakfast consisted of dry cereal-no milk to be found. A waffle maker was there. No eggs. No yogurt. The bed was comfortable. The towels were hard and uncomfortable. For the price, i would not recommend.

The 1st room that we were given the door security latch was broken and the TV didn't work. They moved us to a different room. The 2nd room wasn't any better. The table lamp by the bed didn't work, bad outlet. The shower curtain was almost falling off the walls.Then the worst thing was that the deadbolt wouldn't even engage into the lock! Then to top it off we were greeted with police in the hallway. People in the room across the hall thought there was a camera in the bathroom mirror!
