We arrived VERY early, the woman at the front let us check in anyway and had informed us the ac didn’t work, but she waved the early check in fee. The room was nice and clean and the bed was SUPER comfortable, window open and we forgot all about the ac! You get a discount at the dennys next door as well, the parking is super accessible, staff is all very kind, definitely looking to stay here again!

This place was horrible it was midnight with people screaming from the second floor on one side of the parking lot to the first floor on the opposite side. There was people hanging out in the parking lot drinking and having a party while their kids ran from one room to the other without supervision. The hotel had no air so everyone had to leave their windows open the rooms were an oven. My family was miserable the couple hours we were there and decided to drive the 2.5 hours back home without any sleep because of the conditions.
