The employee who checked me in was cordial. The room was clean and tidy. There was very little noise. One thing to be aware of is the room size. I was alone and booked a room for one person. The bathroom was very small. I am 5'2" tall, and my knees almost hit the wall sitting on the toilet. The shower stall was barely big enough for me. While I didn't have a problem with this, a big person would. Just be aware of that if you want a solo room.
The staff was super friendly and easy to work with. The rooms were clean and everything was in working order. We booked 3 rooms, two of them didn't have great water pressure, but 1 had amazing water pressure. The mattresses aren't super comfy, but we're comfortable enough. The linens were clean and the Heat/AC worked good.
The negatives
Bring a pillow, the ones there are pretty thin
Continental breakfast was pretty non existent, which was fine for us, we just grabbed something from the ez mart
It was located close enough for everything we wanted to do and there were a lot of food places around.
The road noise is pretty insane there, so if you're a light sleeper, plan accordingly.
Everyone we encountered was friendly and more than willing to help, which is a plus! I definitely wouldn't be opposed to staying again. It's a good deal for the price.

It was was a layover for work. Lication was convenient on my route. Had plenty of parking for the truck. The staff was pleasant & helpful. Not a 5 star hotel, but clean & basic for what i needed.
The staff was friendly and the place was very clean. Our was small but we are so busy doing other things we only sleep and shower pretty much. So it was perfect for us!
The room was clean and pillows comfy. Doesn't have late hours front office, but staff was kind and called us to verify arrival time. Just be sure to reach out of arriving after 8 pm. I would recommend this hotel.

Nice place to stay not fancy just a good place to stay. Staff was awesome room was clean. My only complaint was the shower was in ruff shape and needed repairs
My family and I had a wonderful experience with the hotel and staff. Staff members were very friendly, and even helped us right away with our air conditioner, which turned out to be unplugged. lol. I will definitely be back here again next year
Wow, this place is in need of a UPGRADE, and the misleading rating we saw on Hotels.com that lead us to this gem, well thx for nothing Hotels.com.

The property was very worn and old. Needs refreshed
Dope head’s working the front desk, smoking outside out room and smoke came in the A/C unit. Shouldn’t have a room right by front desk heard everything and some things I shouldn’t have heard
I stayed for 2 nights 9/5 and 9/6. I was given room 144. Just off the front desk. The room was clean. But the room was on the small size. Especially the bathroom. Sitting on the toliet my knees were inches from the wall in front of me. I tried turning on the TV, but all i got was no signal. Other than the small bathroom and feeling like i was in a closet, everything was good.
Coffe pot had left over coffe grounds and the pot was dirty, other than that, the stay was great! Quite

Our weekend stay was satisfactory for what it was! It's definitely a budget stay but there was nothing glaringly wrong. The musty smell on the second floor and in our room would be the only thing worth commenting. Good for what you pay!

It was one of the least expensive properties I found but it comes with a caviat. The second floor has no elevator and the stairs are steep and missing a handrail. They were also very dirty. The room was very clean, the bed was fine but the shower was a little tight for anyone of size. They had coffee packets but no coffee maker and the breakfast room was sad. The coffee maker ran out after a third of a cup and no one was around to speak to or service it. The breakfast assortment consisted of 5 apples, a FEW breakfast bars that I wouldn't eat after opening one. There was dry cereal and that was it. Oh, there was a juice dispenser that works.
