Get what you pay for
Hotel was dirty, TV kept freezing and losing connection. AC did not work very good. Beds seemed okay and was comfortable enough. We didn't even shower there bc towels seemed kinda dingy. Staff did seem nice.

Broken cars in the parking lot should have told us to stay away. Old, broken and dirty, everything on the property. Room was dirty, TV did not work, bed was awful and the bathroom was a joke.

Worst hotel experience
Rooms were dirty and not well maintained at all. Stuff in fridge from previous guests, toilet seat was broke in half. No breakfast asked for more to be brought out and girl fixed her plate instead!

It was nice there was several places to eat with in walking distance. And a grocery store less than a block away. What I was disappointed with was the room was not finished from the renovation that was going on and one of the beds box was covered in blood and wound could not lock the dead bolt. And after the first of two nights are keys needed reactivated.

Won’t be returning
Common areas of hotel was hot. Check in was 3pm at 5pm had to check to see if room was clean. Blood stains on sheets, TV wasn’t working. Took them over hour to look at. Refrigerator/freezer was iced over, poor lighting in room. Door @ back of building was suppose to be secure, we returned at 11:15pm, door was still propped open.

This hotel was the dirtiest hotel I’ve ever been at. Floor, bathroom and toilet were really dirty, there was a huge spider web everywhere. I don’t recommend staying there.

The room was ok. The locks on going into the building were not functioning. There was thermostat, which I assume was old hanging off of the wall, and there was a dirty washcloth left on the hanging bar by the sink. The room was not fancy but decent enough to sleep.

Terrible place
Booked on hotels.com and when i got there they said they didnt have our reservation, so we didnt have a place to stay. The place reeked of smoke as we entered. I rang the service bell multiple times over 5 plus minutes without any service. Was offered a room that had a broken shower as an option.

The bathroom toilet was "not" clean. And our door did not lock from the inside-we had to put a chair in front of it. The breakfast was good.

This is a reasonably priced place. Bare bones, no extras, breakfast is skimpy. Sometimes we check if all lights are working inside. But we like the price and location so use it frequently.
