The reception staff was very pleasant. She is the only positive thing at this hotel. The parking lot is horrible, poor lighting and very limited spaces for hotel guests. The building and rooms are very dated. The place has a cheap motel feel. The pool looked murky and not sanitary to get in. We actually didn't even stay the night. We checked out after the event we were attending in the area and took the 2 hour long drive back home.

I love the location , the hotel was clean , pool was a plus & great staff ! But as a single mom who stayed with her 2 year old on the first floor Key cards should be the only way to enter through doors that aren’t main lobby. Safety lacked.
