Great place for a quick stay, nothing fancy but convenient location. Friendly staff, quiet stay, and decent rooms with a kitchen if you need it. They are pet friendly which is great but our room smelled like a wet dog. So I would recommend asking if they have rooms that they don’t allow pets in for a future stay. Overall a great place for a great price!

Basic Hotel if on a budget.

Could use a good update. Carpets felt wet, room had a dirty smell, AC didn't work, young girl at the front desk was not accommodating. All other employees were vere pleasant. I requested adjoining rooms on several occasions throughout the booking process and check-in process and was never accommodated (young girls at the desk). I was disappointing as this was my chance to spend time with my family for the first time in weeks as I was traveling for work.
