This was just your basic budget hotel stay. The property is a little run down, but perfectly sufficient for a one night stop over. The woman who checked us in around 10PM wasn't very friendly, but she got the job done. If they leave the desk at night, there is no way to alert someone that you need something. We had to wait about 10 minutes before she came back around. The breakfast was only okay and again was sufficient for our short stay.

Double charged my card and unable to address the situation. Spoke to clerk in the morning about it and she was rude and would not help. Was told could take up to 48 hours to receive a call back. Still not helpful for when you have a budget for your trip and now cannot do other activities.
