You get what you pay for and that ain’t bad
Low key budget hotel. Not the Tajmahal by any stretch-but you can see that.

Horrific
We left and they refused to refund our money. There were burn holes in the bedding, rusted bathroom fixtures, & plastic grocery bags stuck between a gap in the wall between the AC unit and the wall. Horrific property and room.

Not recomended for families
Stayed for 1 night. Whike checking in clerk was talkig to another staff member about somebody fighting. Walk into room and smelled bad like a smell was being covered up by spray. Bed super hard and a flat sheet and 1 thin fleece blanket provided. Curtain dis not close all the way so you could see in the room ( we were on the bottom floor )

Unelder construction. Our shower liner looked like someone chewed on it and the tub had green stuff around the drain. Cleaned it ourselves.
Other than that not too bad for a last minute booking

Absolutely NO!
Immediately asked for pur money back. Not clean, moldy and falling apart furniture. Smelt like mildew and mold and something i couldnt figure out. No towel or any extras.
They obviously bought an old property that is need of some major remodeling.

Think twice
Mold on shower curtain. Towel rod missing. Almost dead cockroach in bathroom. No bedspread. Floors not swept. No towels in room. No place to hang clothes. Outside looked like it was never cleaned. So bad we left a day early.
Good—did refund portion of payment. Service guy did come check when bath light went out.

Don’t do it! Move on and fast!!
Staff was friendly but the room was not properly cleaned and stocked with toiletries, thank god that I had stuff in my car. The AC unit was very loud. The TV and microwave didn’t work and it didn’t even have a remote in the room for it either. This was the last room available and we were too tired to move to the next town to seek another room

Awful with no refund.
No place to hang clothes. No phone in the room. No towels. You could see outside around the AC unit and the bottom of the front door. One item of furniture in the room had rotten upholstery. Never seen anything this bad!

No towels
There were no towels in the room and when discovered i went to the office but it was closed. How is the front desk not 24 hours? The floors were not swept or moped. The ac was in the wall but a large crack around the edges allowed people passing by to hear into the room.
