Staff was friendly but hard to understand. The room was very clean and well stocked. Only real complaint was that the bathroom was very dated and there didn’t seem to be cold water, only warm/hot.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was disgusting. Bugs, loose wires, rusty open breaker box, paint chipped everywhere, stains, bad smell, hot air coming from the AC, smoke detector hanging, and was put in a smoking room which I did not request. When we asked to move rooms after seeing the state of it, the owner was extremely rude and immediately resorted to being disrespectful/yelling, and refused to move us until we asked about 5 times. Immediately gave excuses to how it was “our fault” and accused us of messing up the room, it was ridiculous and unacceptable. The area was unsafe and I was scared to even stay there. Bad vibes, rude and belligerent staff, and disgusting/unsafe rooms. Do not stay!

Its off the beaten path much closer to the downtown area and the childrens playgrounds, but worth it. The room is simply equipped with the microwave, coff maker and frig. Its clean, quiet and i did not notice neighbors or cars outside. Slept well. Hotel offers a breakfast of cereal, coffee and juice. Nice place. I will stay again.

Lowest price for a night

Gentleman at checkin was nice. Hotel is dated, looks like they are slowly upgrading. We just needed a room for the night so fit our bill. Rooms are large, coffee maker, fridge and microwave in room. The pool looked nice on a hot day. Bed comfortable, room clean.

Unfortunate Stay

Horrible check in with a very grumpy man. Room was a non smoking room but had burn holes in blanket and two very small pillows.

Facility is in dire need of updates, remodeling, and general maintenance. Loud pattern polyester bed spreads are a relic of the past. Cigarette burns all over what is supposed to be a non smoking room sends a message that lots of smoking has occurred. So does the rancid smell.
