Lobby is hot as hell hallways as hot as hell. It’s a roach motel. Weird thing is about it. It’s a choice hotel how can that be? I can’t believe they would represent such a dive! And I can’t figure out how it’s got an 8 rating

False reviews

The bathroom smelled of urine, the tub wouldn’t drain and the carpeting looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed in weeks! The carpet in the hallway was severely stained. I would look seriously at the good reviews as being false, meaning they were written by the owners. I saw none of what the reviews claimed!! After checking out early, I was told I would still be charged for the entire stay. That’s just not the way good business is conducted.

Nice stay

We stayed with our dogs and family of 4. They gave us a large, 1st floor room that worked perfectly. The breakfast was very poor though. Not worth even trying anything they had. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

If you want a place to sleep it is fine. Room was clean. Coffee pot was broke, shower certain was mounted to let water run out of shower and on bathroom floor and tv remote had to be 3 feet from tv to function. For the low cost it was OK for a nights rest.

9am! Be there.. or else:: NO BREAKFAST!!

It’s a good place to go; not the best in town but it’s good. The only comment that makes it a four instead of five is that the breakfasts are terrible and don’t forget to get up in the morning early enough because they close the breakfast area directly at 9 AM.

Liked: Cleanliness
It was great that they allowed pets for a reasonable price. The room I had was fine but odd. The ceilings were incredibly high and it was kind of like staying in a warehouse that had been made into a hotel. All that being said, it was clean, convenient, and priced reasonably for my 2 small dogs and me!
