The property was old, outdated, and had poor Wi-Fi. If you only need a place to sleep, this is your place. Breakfast consisted only of cereal.

This place is absolutely disgusting and my family refused to sleep there! There were cigarette burns on both beds/comforters, cobwebs, blood on blankets, and clearly hadn’t been cleaned in no telling how long! This place would be the spot if you were looking for a place to take a hooker!!

Easy to access to various restaurants and shops on foot. Hotel room stinks and filthy, so I had to spray two bottles of deodorants. My door lock opens even without a card key, so I had to carry my note book in my sack bag whenever I step out of the room.

I booked this stay for my employees on an out of town job and they informed us that the hotel was dirty with bugs. The hotel was non refundable but the employees ended up getting a room at a different hotel.

concerned about safety, the rear motel entrance door,where we parked,was always unlocked. Usually 2-6 guys were hanging out in the rear parking lot. Maybe they were on break? But uncomfortable walking into building.

This hotel is in terrible hygienic conditions, there are cockroaches everywhere, stains on the linen and the smell throughout the hotel is unbearable. It will be ready for demolition at any time. I tried to get my money back and they didn't, they have no cancellation policy.

Chose this hotel based on price alone -- site said "recently remodeled rooms" and that was true. Unfortunately workmanship was shoddy -- bad paint, stains, grout with a curious pink shade, toilet seat peeling apart, bare wire hanging from ceiling (fire detector missing?) and la cucarachas. In the hallways, nasty carpet and rooms curiously blocked open and banging late into the night. In short -- I would not recommend staying here.

You get what you pay for. It's am older hotel with a mix of updates and older fixtures. The staff were courteous and helpful. My room was clean and had an odd cleaner smell but not bad. The internet worked perfectly. It met my criteria and that's enough for me. Btw, the faucet in the bathroom leaks pretty bad. It needs new rubber bushings but replacing it makes more sense.

The room was in very poor condition. The door to the bathroom had holes in it, the air was off and the room was scorching when I got there, and there was a giant puddle in the floor upon my arrival.

The vending machine for cold drinks did not accept money. Front desk clerk had to open it so you can get a drink out. THe snack machine was practically empty - not alot of choices available.

The room had food on the floor when we got there. There was a terrble smoky odor. The sheets and comforters had cigarette burn holes and the towels were stained and rippped.We were given a 3rd floor room and there was no elevator. Very disappointed for a Wyndam property. If there were othe hotels available we would have moved. So fisappointed.

I purchased our stay thru Hotels.com so, exhausted & at 11pm, waiting 30 minutes to get a key was VERY disheartening! I didn’t realize it was a smoking motel. Being put on the 1st floor (nonsmoking) turned out ok. Both bedspreads(?) were full of holes from burn marks & the sheets had some spots on them. All the pillow cases looked as if they’d already been slept on. Breakfast was juice, coffee, white bread, a few mini muffins, & a waffle maker. Perhaps that makes some people happy but it was the worst continental breakfast I’ve experienced. If you have very low expectations, stay there. Otherwise, find somewhere else to stay!
