I was really surprised how clean the room was and smelt so good. The only problem was a leak with the shower head, but overall it was nice.

Staff was great; maintenance was nonexistent. Health and safety code violations galore. I would be surprised if it passed its annual safety inspection, and would be interested to know who conducted it with Palestine FD/City of Palestine.

If they can’t fix the problem don’t stay there!!
Rented a room for 2 nights. We arrived late like almost midnight. We get in the bathroom didn’t look like it had been swept or mopped there was hair all over the floor. The toilet didn’t flush since it was late we waited til the morning to let them know. We called up there twice in the morning got back to the room still not fixed. I went to the office asked if I could use the restroom and the lady was rude. She said do you not have one in your room? To which I responded I do and the toilet isn’t flushing and we have called it in. Her attitude totally changed. We leave and come back again pretty late, still not working so I go back to the front and demand another room. The young man working didn’t understand what was going on. I had to explain that the toilet wasn’t flushing and I needed another room. He gives me keys to another room. At this point we are exhausted. In the morning I go ask for a late checkout and he says 11:00 which is normal checkout time. I leave a number for the manager to call me back because I was extremely upset about the whole situation for a refund for a night, a discount something and no call received!

Checking in was easy. Room wasn’t clean. Didn’t have toilet paper in room at all. Had to go ask front desk for some. Bathroom was dirty. Wash cloths were stained and nasty. Carpet in room dirty. This was a last resort as other hotels were booked.

Nice Room, Amazing Staff and Great Breakfast!!
My stay was great once it was worked out. I called 2 days prior to my trip to make sure I could be booked in a downstairs room. I was told that my room was changed to a downstairs room and it was not a problem at all to accommodate that request. When I arrived on Friday I was not in a down stairs room. The very kind lady working had to changey room again to a downstairs but there were changes that had to be made as I booked a king room. When I drove around to my room there was no parking and as a female traveling alone it is unnerving to park and walk across the parking lot to a room in the middle of several men hanging out on a Friday night enjoying their night. Luckily she realized that there was another room available closer to the office. I appreciated her very much for moving me to a location where it was quiet as I had to be up early and really wanted to sleep. I know working men deserve a night to relax after a long week and have a good time, but I was exhausted and didn't want to have to deal with trying to sleep while they were having a good time. So it worked out due to the amazing staff paying attention to the fact that I traveled alone and the location of the room that I was given wasn't ideal. You can never be too safe these days. Oh and breakfast at the cafe was amazing. Service was quick and good was home style cooking good.

A Tired Old Hotel
It is a very tired old hotel. Water leaked from the noisy people above us shower into our bathroom. We called the office which was to be open 24/7 to complain about the said noisy neighbors at 10:30pm and got no answer. The light over the bathroom sink randomly worked which was very inconvenient. The bed was very comfy and the decoration was relatively updated. Now..included in the price was a very nice country breakfast with great food and friendly service.

Arrived and my room had heat but absolutely no electricity. Due to having a little one by myself with me and it being so late, I did not want to go back out in the dark and cold to the external office since we at least had heat. Would not return after that experience.

Good place to stay
The hotel has recently been updated. It was clean and the staff was accommodating and friendly. I think the beds are new too. A nice hot breakfast from the cafe next door is free. The pool has been renovated also. They are pet friendly and only charge 10.00 extra for your pet up to 80 lbs. which covers most dogs. We had our lab with us so it was nice to know he was welcome. The hotel was almost all booked up which can be a noisy problem, but we had a quiet, restful night. We would stay here again.

Good service, but facility was disappointing.
The beds were not Queen as advertised, they were double. Very comfortable though. One of the main reasons for choosing this hotel was the pool which was locked. No access.

Comfortable bed. However, swimming pool under repair & no one told us when we booked stay. Bathroom dirty, roach in room. Also, no discount for AAA or AARP, or Senior Citizen's discount. Staff said since I booked thru Expedia, that I received my discount with them! Didn't see the discount on my bill.
