No complaints, have stayed here multiple times over 1 year for business. Quiet place to get rest. Staff readily available for check in. If you need somewhere to get quiet rest at night and start the morning fresh and rested, this is the place. Clean, conveniently located near expressway.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The door latch was broken so we couldn’t even lock the door we ended up going across the street to wal mart to buy a door lock wedge to feel safe and when we got into the room the floor was wet as if someone spilled a bucket of water onto the floor and the room temperature was so hot and it took about 2 hours for the temperature in the room to drop from 88 degrees to 75 degrees.

One nighter

We think its a workers hotel. When we arrived there was alot of young men just hanging around the parking lot and on the upper level. The room was spacious and fairly clean. The bed and pillows were great. Very small area and selection for breakfast. However for the price it is definitely worth staying there.
