Good for the price

It’s ok for the price, doesn’t smell the cleanest and definitely needs some updating. Convenient location, very close to Dunkin, Dairy Queen and a gas station. Pool was open, not the cleanest either but didn’t bother my youngest to go swimming! Beds were comfortable, air conditioning was cold. Would probably stay again.

Good stop to see friends! Easy check in and check out. Our room was a bit smelly and the ceiling leaked in the bathroom but for the price it was not as bad as I thought compared to the other reviews.

We liked the easy access to the hotel and the parking. The staff in the morning was very nice. The room was outdated, with cigarette's burns on the furniture and a stench. The beds were clean but the bedding smelled like mold. The bathroom's floor was dirty and the shower head was broken.
