Would stay again
Comfortable and clean motel. Couldn’t tell from the listing that it was a motel instead of a hotel but it was fine. Nice area. Good breakfast. They charged an extra mandatory $60 incidental fee at check in that should be refunded in 7-10 business days that the listing didn’t say anything about. Bonus was the kitties on the property that we got to pet.

Probably my last stay there
The hotel seem to be clean, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was on the first floor. There was an issue with our toilet. It would not flush, there was no one to fix it so they moved us to the second floor. There was no one to help us move which was difficult for us and we had to move our suitcases upstairs. And that toilet barely flushed for us but it made it the couple days we were there. The AC seem to have trouble keeping the room cool.

We were on the 2nd floor and had to climb a flight of stairs because there was no elevator. That was difficult due to
all four of us being senior citizens and having to carry luggage up the flight of stairs. The hotel is older so if you’re looking for modern this hotel would not suit you. However, it was clean and the beds were very comfortable.

Not Good
The front desk clerk was not very friendly, very loud, and even took a phone call with BW customer service on speaker during our check in. The room was very dark with all lights on and blinds open. The smell of weed was very strong. There were small flying bugs all over room.

Got free parking right in front of my room. Breakfast was okay, not many people in the hotel. The TV did not work, but I did not have time to talk to the front desk about that. The heating made a lot of noise.

Charged damage fee
We spend approximately $130,000 annually on hotels due to frequent employee travel, and we’ve never encountered a situation like this. This property charged us a $300 fee for what they claimed was a “horrible mess” left in two rooms. When we requested photo evidence to address the issue with our team, the only image provided was of a single dirty towel—hardly justification for such a charge. If you’re going to assess a damage fee, thorough documentation should be standard. We do not recommend this hotel and will not be staying here again.
