The toilet ran constantly. The ice machine was broken. The breakfast was less than a usual continental breakfast. When I asked if there was any yogurt or fruit I was told, “This is not the Quality Inn. “

Classico Motel americano, se prenderete una stanza non fumatori dovrete andare al primo piano, non ci sono ascensori, quindi con i bagagli potrebbe essere scomodo. Ad una prima occhiata non sembrava sporco, ma il giorno dopo avevo le gambe completamente piene di punture simile a quelle delle zanzare, potrebbero essere cimici da letto, già citate in vecchie recensioni, alle quali, ahimè, non ho dato peso! Non ho nemmeno voluto sapere se disponibile la colazione, onde evitare cose peggiori delle punture. Evitatelo.

Very run down Hotel, untidy lobby with boxes stacked around and very limited lighting. The mattress was very saggy, the pillows were old and lumpy, the wall heater had no cover and was very noisy so we unplugged it. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was coffee and juice with a few small muffins. The cereal containers were empty and no bread was available for the toaster.

Quite possibly the nastiest motel I’ve ever stayed at in my 66 years. 2 of 4 lamps did not work (broken switch). Clock radio broken and would not operate at all. Bathroom floor tile, tub and carpet is filthy. Furniture looks like it had not been dusted in months. Holes in the window curtain, No toilet paper. I can’t begin to describe. Do not waste your money staying here if you have to drive 100 miles for another motel.

The room was filthy. We had to get new sheets and change the sheets. We booked the room for 2 people, but had 3 guests in the room including the giant cockroach. There were magots in the bottom of the trash can. We moved it outside. There was hair all over the bathroom. The hairdryer did not work. The complimentary breakfast was a joke. The breakfast area was filthy. We cancelled the 2nd night we booked and are waiting for a refund. STAY AWAY!!!!

For an older hotel it was impressive. The room was clean, bed was very comfortable and the AC was very cold which made for a wonderful nights sleep. I didn’t eat breakfast there, I chose local cafes. The location was very convenient as well. No noise issue either. For the price I’ll be back.

I’ve been staying here regularly for a work project and I have no complaints. Nice, clean, and quiet hotel compared to the lower costing others in the area. The other’s rooms are much smaller, and one is loud all hours of the night. The people here at the front desk are very friendly and accommodating, and the beds are comfortable. It’s a little older, but no bugs and everything is always set up nice and neat.

The property was quiet at certain hours of the night. I didn’t take pictures of my room like normally. So we checked in Thursday evening and checked out this morning. After leaving getting on the road I get a car from the hotel saying we stole some pillows and they are $40 and I need to pay. Or the police will be called and my ID information will be given. Why would I steal pillows that everyone has slept on. When I go to hotel I take sheets and cover. The sir condition front is broken the bathroom door broken. Tub wasn’t clean and roaches on the wall. But stealing pillows no…

The room I purchased online via Expedia was NOT available when I checked in, despite having a confirmation email. I was told they were all booked, and an upgraded room was offered for an additional $10/night, which the proprietor asked me to pay in cash. I found that somewhat sketchy. The cleaning staff was very nice & helpful, however.

The staff was very friendly, but the room had a stench that was overwhelming. The air-conditioning/ heat unit only had one setting and out of date. Upon awakening the next morning there at the end of the unit was what looked like a ball of hair and trash. Whomever was supposed to do the cleaning did not do a good job. I'm grateful for having a place to stay and it was in a good location from the church that I was to attend that night. I don't know about what the other rooms were like but the one I stayed in as I said, it stunk! There was no privacy door in between the bedroom and bathroom. You had to get dressed in the bathroom. It needs to be updated.
