This property is fantastic! Very under-rated!!! I have always have had great experiences here. The staff is great and the hotel is very clean. The complimentary breakfast is plentiful and there is coffee all day! Don't hesitate to stay here!

We were in town only for one night. The first room we were in had a strong mold/wet dog smell in the bathroom, but front desk staff were quick to get us a new room which was great. Limited breakfast options, but filling and good for the price. Good budget hotel, we would stay again.

Property needs some upkeep. Fan was falling in bathroom, security lock was missing part of hit to catch, tiolet had to shake handle so wouldn’t run, air conditioner was noisy and ran ineffectively we actually open window with screens to help cool room. The upside was it was one of cheapest in town as it was graduation weekend. Tried to save some $$ but probably wouldn’t stay another time.
