Hotel feels more like a motel. The room seems clean but windows not. We’re traveling with a group so we’ll stay. Management did allow for an early checkin which in 90degree temps was a favor. First floor rooms two doors one opens to the hallway from the bathroom. The other to the parking lot. Cannot recommend.

The breakfast forget about it. The bare minimum A place to rest your head and take a bath. Water stains on the walls. Dirty carpets in the halls. One step above a tent. On the plus side the air conditioner worked and that was pleasant. I would be nice if they put a light on their sign in front. Clearly the put the bare minimum in. This is what you can expect.

The jets in the tub didn’t work (or exist). The cold water didn’t work so only a scorching hot shower was an option.

Kind and friendly staff. The pool was dug up and I wish that had been mentioned because my nine year old was disappointed but the front desk clerk gave him a cookie and was very kind. No working elevators so I was glad we didn’t have a ton of luggage but the next morning when our room keys weren’t working after we came up from breakfast my little boy and I had to make many trips down stairs to try and get the keys to work again. Front desk was able to make one key work and we were happy to be back in our room as the lobby is very very warm. Large, clean, and comfy beds. My son appreciated the WiFi and the tv channel guide as we are not from the area and we don’t know what to watch. Breakfast was great. Too warm in the room but the food was tasty and there were quite a few options. I would stay here again but with little luggage and no expectations of swimming. For the price it was a good pick! We needed something last minute and only for one night so it worked out fine.

It was a decent room. Had to ask for toilet paper and Kleenex for our room. Key pad timed out before our checkout and had to go back to the office and have the cards re-keyed.

The breakfast was horrible. Not knowing about a $100.00 deposit at check in. Not getting your room cleaned daily or at least clean towels daily. I asked for a clean towel. I got the run around. Yeah give me a few minutes and bring one to you. Never happened.

I guess I should not have expected more for the price but what a horrible place. Had o get my own toilet paper at the front desk, no soap in the shower, dead bolt lock broken, chair in room broke also-almost fell. Hair in the bed-not my color, parking lot full of trash. The breakfast was one saving factor but never again.

Rude staff. The parking lot looked like a junkyard. Beds were awful and offered no support. I had severe back pain for a week following my stay at this hotel.
