The hallway was very stinky but the room itself was very nice. They have a very nice indoor pool that was very clean. This property is attached to an extended stay so it felt very sketchy but wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The staff was very friendly.

I chose this option because I was looking for a pet friendly option. My expectations were not high. However upon entering the building it smelled like dog urine. Carpets were disgusting. The property looks like it is inhabited by long term dwellers. In my room it was noisy from people just walking on the floor above. In my opinion the best that could happen is burning the place to the ground without occupants of course. If you want your day to go from good to depressed this would be the right hotel for you.

Newly renovated rooms. The staff is friendly and it’s such a great place to stay. Very convenient location right off the express way, located between a few different fast food places and gas stations. Pet friendly and they do not charge a pet fee.

1 night stay. Just traveling through.

Even though it was near the E way,didn't hear the traffic much. Was quiet until later in the evening. Could hear the water running pretty loud from people taking showers. Worried about safety of our car because when we checked in there was a car in parking lot w covered broken window with tow sticker on it.Room was very clean,no smells.

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. Do not let the photos fool you. Apparently there is PART of this motel that has been updated but the other half (where I got stuck with my 15 year old daughter) is an extended stay where they apparently allow lions, tigers and bears to live. The lobby doesn't seem so bad but if you have the unfortunate luck to be down the hallway to the left, once you open the doors, you will be knocked out by the smell of urine. The ammonia smell will make you sick. People's dogs were barking all day and night. Little kids screaming and crying from 5am on. And I do NOT recommend going to the parking lot for any reason other than to leave. I saw multiple d*ug deals in broad daylight. Even the front desk worker came out from behind a dumpster after a dealer was flagged down by a long term stay resident. All in all, this hotel is very unsafe, very disgusting and very disappointing. PLEASE do not stay here!

Below average

The hallways stunk. There were several rooms with dogs, which are allowed. Old, tired property. The room itself was clean and so was the bed, which was important. But overall, I was very disappointed.

Good Hotel. Room Clean. Only problem was they put us on far end of hotel to be on ground floor. But had small stairs to go up. This end of hotel needed cleaning up, especially at entrance. Hallway had terrible ordor. But once in room, it was very clean.

It was easy to get to. But some things were in disrepair. Door to bathroom was falling apart. Ice machine broke, and it seems a place that has more than 300 rooms would have more than one ice machine.

The lamp in the corner was broken. The latch on the door was broke. There was no slippery resistant in the tub. My 76 year old mother fell in the shower because it was slippery.

Scuzzy and kinda gross

Lady with the pink hair at the front desk was super gruff and unfriendly. Whole place has a weird smell that got worse once in my room. Kind of a cross between a fish market and an ash tray that had been quickly wiped out. I found out in the morning how dirty the floors were...hairs and snow melt salt all over. After I took a shower I put two wet towels on the floor and 'skated' around cleaning the floor myself because it was grossing me out. You should have seen those towels.... The noise was almost insufferable. That place seems made from cardboard the way you can hear everything going on in clear detail from waaaaaaay down the hall. The pillows were the thickest, hardest pillows I'd ever slept on and gave me a terrible head and neck ache. The beds were...okay. The house keepers in the mornings were male, which is fine, except the way they would beat on the doors and yell "HOUSEKEEPING!!!" was aggressive. Also, they were listening to music very loudly, whether on their phones or a Bluetooth speaker I'm not sure but it was loud. Not mentioned anywhere in the listing is that a portion of the motel is dedicated to affordable long-term rentals, and there were quite a few people milling about the motel and parking lot in the night which made me a little uneasy. Honestly, I neither felt safe leaving things in my truck or in my room, which was kind of a bad place to be in for a couple days. Definitely not the worst I've seen, but I won't be staying there again.
