This is a basic hotel without a lot of fanfare, which I knew when I booked. A little dated with worn carpet and damage to walls. The room and bed were decent and water pressure was good. Staff friendly and accommodating. Some decent restaurants not far from hotel.

Try somewhere else

Well, the bed was broken down. Two small flat pillows. No coffee. Microwave blows the breaker at 45 seconds. Broken missing lights in hallway and room. Large room with spartan furniture. Desk help wasn't sure where the room was in the building. Mostly rent by week or month clientele with six broken down cars in the parking lot...

The staff at this property are very nice and helpful. The building is in need of upgrades to weekly rooms. The nightly rooms are in much better condition. For someone just needing a room for a night or two, you can't go wrong here. The weekly rate is too much for outdated rooms. Overall the place was quiet and clean.

I did not stay. The building looked unkept, windows broken and a car that appeared abandoned. This is the first time ive ever felt unsafe at a property

I didn’t actually get to stay here because my stay was cancelled. I would never have known until I showed up had I not called to inquire about check in times. They offered no help in getting us a room somewhere else and we ended up having to drive an hour and a half away to find a hotel. They were very apologetic but completely unhelpful.

Dated however it looks like they are trying to update some rooms as allowed. Beds and linens we newer. Being a new mattress it was comfortable but they have left the plastic wrap on them. This makes it very noisy, hot and uncomfortable when you are trying to sleep. Had to leave a $50 cash deposit and was told if we paid for our stay by card it would cost more than the posted price. It appears many of the rooms are for more long term residents.

We rented the suite and it was such a a great deal. It was only 114 bucks on Expedia and that included the Jacuzzi!! The gentleman at the front desk, I believe his name was Ryan (maybe Josh ) was super friendly, nice, and very helpful. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay and had everything we needed while we were there. (Thank you again for the lighter!) I will say they have done a massive amount of remodeling to this place and it looks amazing!! They are still working on it so if staying somewhere where there is still MINOR updates being done would bother you just know there are small things still being incorporated into the property. I wish they allowed pets or had a select few rooms that were pet friendly because I would like to go back and stay for more than one night and take my dog. The only thing that I really didn't like was that there isn't a bathroom in the lobby, other than that I was completely satisfied with my stay and the staff. Thanks so much!!
