Would stay here again! The staff was nice, and our room seemed well cleaned. Just a few downsides were our room had a very dusty smell when we first walked in, the window didn’t have a nob to open it, and there weren’t many channels on the Tv. But nothing beats the great price!

My room smelled mildewy, the deadbolt would not turn, and the breakfast was a joke. There was some dry cereal, a waffle iron, and what looked like stale bread. There was a bag of Damp-rid hanging in my closet area to and it looked like it needed changing. There were dehumidifiers in the hallway. I didn't like the fact that the light switch when you first entered didn't turn anything on. The bed was comfortable. The clerk was friendly.
