The price and breakfast were decent. Bathroom was eh….and the hotel was noisy. For $80, was decent place to crash after a concert.

Check in was easy. Nice for the price. Request a handicapped room and didn’t get one. TV hard to figure out but once I did it was great.

Pictures were misleading. Pool is very small. Rooms smelled of stained smoke. Hallways smelled like popcorn & hot ass. Breakfast was not good & we filled up on gas station food instead. It is only decent for someone looking to sleep for a few hours maybe. It is right off the highway & a lot of truckers are around. Was not ideal for my family. All of the bathrooms in the lobby were locked & we were told we had to go back to our room from the pool to use the bathroom, very strange.

There was blood on the ceiling of my room and the ice machine hadn't worked it what appeared to be several years. Guy at desk was very hard to understand and was rude.

The room was clean enough and it was a great price in a central location. There were issues with the plumbing however. The toilet ran constantly due to improper an flapper, and the stopper in the sink hasn't been installed. So when you push it down there's no way to get it to lift again, even from beneath. But the room was large and comfortable. We were mainly in and out so I didn't really explore anything.

The trash wasn't changed out of the trash can in our room plus there were underwear left on the back of the bathroom. We had asked for more towels to be brought to our room when it got cleaned an they didn't so we eventually had to go ask again for towels. There was no extra toilet paper in the bathroom either.

Meh. Probably wouldn't come back.
Hair dryer was missing from the room, and I really needed it. Beds were comfortable. Staff was pleasant.Wall above toilet was dirty (see photo) - and the first was easy to wash off. Hair from previous occupant was stuck to the shower curtain. Wall to the left of heater/ac unit had peeling paint (see photo). Upon check-in, staff scanned my ID, as expected. They then made a hard copy of it too. Given my previous experience with identity theft, and now taking great care to handle personal information with great care, this made me very uncomfortable. Staff assured me hard copies are destroyed in a week or two, but I have no way to verify this.
No hair dryer in the room - this is an amenity listed for all rooms.
Wall above toilet visibly dirty.
Peeling paint on the wall. A hazard, especially for families with young children.
