Check in was easy, room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the pool was clean. The tvs reception was bad. Breakfast was just so so. The coffee is very diluted. No hot water to make tea in the water dispenser.

The Staff was very polite! The room is nice and clean. It’s a pet friendly motel is the main reason we selected this place as well as price (there is an additional pet fee). Wife likes it, so I’m happy. 😊

Staff very friendly & helpful. Would stay again as passing through town as have done previously. Very convenient location off highway with several restaurants, stores & gas close by. Downtown is a very quaint area.

As someone who stays in hotel all around the US this one is by far the worst hotel and the worst customer service ever, we are truck driver and our truck AC got messes up so we decided to stay here since its the only hotel we could find with semi parking(ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS HOTEL), there at 1:30am, to check in it will be in between the door you cant enter the lobby, we got an old room in the back, we was ok with stay in the back and having a room with a connecting door, but the door was busted didn’t have a locked i had to move the mini fridge to the door to feel safe, the room was dusty like they haven’t used it in weeks the linens are worn off and towel are stains. Also there’s a construction going on next door with a non stop banging noise since 8am. We wanted late check out they don’t offer late check out not even of you willing to pay, their latest check out is at 11:30 when every hotels let you stay until 12, when we call the front desk to ask (from our cellphone because they phone dont work) her responce was who told us to get there at 2am like are you serious we drove for 10 hours and wanted to rest and freshen up and that was her response. So if you want a bad customer service treatment this is your place! PS im not a person that likes to waste time leaving reviews but this one deserves it. And to the lady in the front desk learn how to speak to people you disrespectful human!!

We stayed with our two dogs. The room had been renovated, new floor and fixtures which was nice. Larger than normal refrigerator in the room. The room was super clean, would recommend if you're traveling with pets. Note that the online rate does not include the additional pet fee which was $35 per dog.

This place was ghetto. When we got in the room there was mold in the sink. There was hair in our bed and the sheets were dirty and wrinkled like they hadn't been changed. Nasty, nasty, nasty. I would never stay here again. I only stayed here out of necessity and when I went to the front desk to complain they gave me a different room which was better but not great. I would not stay at this hotel ever again. It is a renovation gone poorly

Front desk people at night check in were the best part. Our room had giant boogers wiped on the walls and doors. TV remotes didnt work on 2 TVs. Top of the fridge and counters were dusty, dirty and sticky, we had to wipe it down. There was a stink bug on the ceiling we noticed in the morning. The breakfast quality was lacking and the worker was negligent on it didnt seem happy. The apple juice was like half water half juice, my kids didnt even drink it and that says alot.
