When we arrived the room wasn’t even clean. Beds were not made, there was a super weird bike sitting in the hall and every time we walked by a guy would creep out his window. Definitely not the safest place to stay!

We were in town for a dance weekend. This place is all we are looking for. It was easy to drive to and from venue. The room was clean, truly non smoking. Needs some areas of fixing, but nothing that was an inconvenience. Breakfast was simple, and good. Located next to shopping and eating places. The price was good. Safe place.

No Thanks

Wasnt impressed with anything. Not as clean as I would prefer. Heater made noises, would rather not use. Breakfast lacking: 2 cereals, toast, yogurt, watery gross looking pancake mix. Lid for coffee cups are too small to fit. Shampoo and conditioner samples mustve been half empty bc they were used prior to us. Wash cloth smelled. Would've been fine if it was a $50 night place to stay just to try to sleep somewhere for a minute.

The staff was okay when it came to friendliness. Breakfast was less than desirable. Waffles or cereal. No protein, no yogurt although the sign on the refrigerator clearly said " milk and yogurt". When asked about yogurt the person in charge of the dining room played dumb while wrapped up in a blanket in the lobby. But. You get what you pay for - cheap room no amenities.

This was the worst place I have ever stayed. The heat was set at 62 but it was over 85 in our room and it stopped working all together. No towels, no coffee, coffee pot missing pieces, not clean at all and they didn't care at all.

Run down place with cheap management

Dirty worn out room. Head hair and pubic hair in the tub and bathroom. No pancake mix or milk or hot water for oatmeal. Juice was watered down. Management refused to bring out any more milk. It's a cheap place but you get what you pay for. Be prepared.

Picked this place trying to save a buck so I didn’t expect a lot but they did not meet the very low bar I’d set for it. No staff anywhere to be found. There was a bunch of junk lying around at the front desk. No lights on in the entry way. Very dark, dank, run down. They put a $100 deposit on my credit card even though Id already paid. I cant think of anything I could possibly have broken there worth $100. Room was freezing. I turned the “heater” on. It only blew cold air all night long. It looked like they were in the middle of a remodel at least I hope they were. Sheets smelled clean despite being covered in stains. Didnt bother to turn the TV on or take a shower. Would gladly have traded the $20 I saved on literally any other hotel in town.

Absolutely terrible! Room hadn't been cleaned. Shower was full of soap scum and towels/bedding stained. Asked for a different room, second room didn't have the power on. Dirty and the fridge stunk like power hadn't been on in months and standing water sat. Absolutely disgusting, staff said they just got the hotel. Clearly the new owners didn't perform basic cleaning of the rooms before begining taking money from customers. Was a process to get a refund. Stay far, far away from this place! Not following the most basic sanitary procedures.

It smelt funny, they gave us a dirty room, the microwave barely worked. There was also a $100 deposit that was not clear online, and I still havent gotten it back... its been only about 4 days, im in NEED of it (the transaction says its still pending too, but i dont have any of that money).The cool air and heat stopped working half-way through our 6 day stay. The people at the desk were nice enough, but they didn't have much to eat for breakfast either.
