No caffeine coffee in the morning. Broken down vehicles with flat tire in parking lot. Mowed around all summer. Trailers with junk on the property. This is a brand new area and this made Microtel look trashy

The breakfast they provided was terrible. Food was cold and not much of a selection. There didn't seem to be any staff maintaining the food during the time it was being served. Also, there was no decaf coffee being served.

MOLD. Smells. Dirty sticky carpets. My room had rotted cat puke or turd in the corner of the desk. The owner at the front desk was angry I complained and when I wanted to leave early gave me a hard time about giving a refund my prepaid unused days.

Good hotel for a good price for a night on the road stay. Bed was comfortable and room was very quiet. I'd stay here again. Would've been nice to have some 110v outlets in parking lot for a slow EV charge.

Exceeded expectations. Hotel was very clean. I watched the attendant clean a room, and she is very thorough. Everything is kept neat, inside and out. Continental breakfast was decent with lots of options. Only ding is only 1 ice machine, located on the 2nd floor. Overall, I'd come back!
