There was maintenance being done on the roof and materials left all over the parking lot. The room was so small and humid. The blankets on the bed felt wet. The door going out opened to the parking lot and get so unsafe. The neighborhood around the hotel was rundown and we did not feel safe at all.

They are a least renovating. Had to ask for an ice bucket.. There was only 1 hand towel. The fridge was good & it had a nice size freezer. The "Breakfast" was an apple, a danish bun, Tang orange drink. Had to ask for coffee so she brought us 2 bananas & coffee. There was no place to sit. We will not stay there again.

Horrible. Looks like the owners live on the property. There were lots of chairs outside the rooms with cups with cigarette butts. Using a outside window to check in was very uncomfortable and unsafe. I was also freezing cold standing and waiting.

The king suite with the jetted tub was absolutely amazing very spacious I loved the layout. Perfect weekend getaway. The shower head was awful and tub wasn’t cleaned very well or it’s stained!

This hotel is disgusting. After driving for 9 hrs with kiddos needed to simply shower, sleep, get up and eat and go. The tub in room was clogged so no shower. Found hair and a living big on the bed. So couldn’t even sleep.

My stay was terrible. Room didn’t get clean until after 3pm. Every time I left the room and was gone for hours the key given to me would not open my door, had to always go to the front office to get another key and on several occasions the desk clerk had to come open the door explain to him I would be late getting in on a particular day and would the third key he had given me would open the door his reply was yes there should be no problems. Got back to the hotel at 2:30 am standing out side in the rain and cold waiting for assistance to open my door. I would never use this hotel again nor would I refer it to anyone.

most of the experience was good. However, the key card and the door lock did not work for almost two days and the front desk clerk has to unlock room 109 for each entry. Lastly, the young woman who was working at the front desk seemed overwhelm. outside of all of this , all was well and see you next year

Only two towels, half a roll of toilet paper, had to reset door key three times, moved rooms because card key wouldn't work, overall mediocre and average, but cheaper than other motels. It was about what we expected for the price.

The reservation was for 1 room 2 beds for 4 adults. To begin with, the key cards wouldn't work. The front desk had to come open the door and realized oke of the key cards didn't work. Then we left to grab some dinner and the Sonic we went to wasn't serving any more food. Once we got dinner and came back to eatbat the room, the key card wouldn't work again. After several attempts it finally opened. Then when it was time to shower, there were only like 2 large towels to dry ourselves with. It was not that good of stay to say the least. On topnof the fact that the sheets seemed dirty and the mirrors too. Along with the fact that the furniture looked so old and beat up. It was more like a run down motel than a Howard Johnson by Wyndham stay. Not so great of a stay.

The property is old and has not been renovated. The temp out side was over 100°. The first room I went into had a awful staled smell and the AC was not on, had to be 90° in the room. I requested a different room due to the smell. Second room did not not smell as bed but the AC was not on, again 90°. After sitting on the coffee table for an hour in front of the now running AC I decided to cut my losses and move on. Went next door and got a room at the Holiday Inn. I was bad, but what can you expect for $72.

OK for the money, but breakfast is almost non existent - OJ and coffee, and a few “pastries”, that’s it! You will need to go and find some Breakfast elsewhere.

I would have expected this from a hotel that was $50, but the filth was horrible. No continental breakfast either.
