Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was a motel with doors opening to the parking lot. Our flight was delayed, so we arrived late (after midnight) and there were half dozen people loitering around the parking lot, at least 3 cars with people sitting inside blasting music. Did not feel safe. The overhead lights in our room did not work - we were told to use the bedside lamps instead. The TV and phone didn't work either. We booked a queen room, but there was only a small full sized bed inside. The hotel photos on the website are incredibly misleading. Definitely would not recommend.

Bathroom accommodations were fair. The room did not have the most pleasant smell. The television did not work for the 3 day stay-front desk said something referencing the company? The bedsheets sooo old, with holes and stains. Lastly, the air conditioner made such a weird noise all night, every night ☹️. Will not repeat!
