Be careful

The location is under construction. Parking lot in back has 40 old mattresses. This place is sketchy. Some rooms are weekly rentals.

The space was drab. Windows in the room were so thin you can hear the cars outside and on the road. Smelled in the room as though it had been smoked in for decades.

Very "shady" area. Very unkempt. Clearly its an old building, and with old comes its flaws. But, if youre looking for just an overnight stay without having to cough up $200-500 for the night and don't mind its appearance, then this is your spot.

Nice rooms

The building looks old and a little rundown but the rooms were modern and nice. Location was great. Free parking. Food & shops are within a 10 minute drive. I would stay there again

Would not stay again

The room was recently renovated with new paint and a new shower surround. And when requested, the staff brought a couple of extra pillows and replaced towels. But there was Taco Bell garbage in one of the dresser drawers, and dead roaches and live spiders under the bed. The A/C unit had an unpleasant smell. The shower curtain had mold and mildew. The bathroom fan did not clear the steam from the shower, but it did pull in the smell of someone cooking eggs in another room. The outer breezway to the room was not renovated. It did have extremely bright lighting, but smelled of marijuana, and felt sketchy. I appear to be unable to add a photo using the mobile app, but I think I gave an adequate description.

A dusty gem that could be better.

Property is old but seems to be maintained. Front desk person was friendly. Room seemed clean but lacked something. Hard to put my finger on it. Bed sheets were old, scratchy and there was no comforter. AC was noisy but worked well. For the money it was worth it.

This was a last resort choice for us as there was truly nothing else available but we would have been better off to just keep driving or rest in our vehicle. It was WAY overpriced. I asked specifically if it was a nonsmoking room and was assured that it was but it reeked of smoke. There was a basic deadbolt but the extra locking mechanism found in every other hotel I've seen was broken off. The floor was also dirty. No elevator so we had to carry sleeping kids up the stairs. No breakfast, people roaming the parking lot in the middle of the night.
