The property was definitely not as nice as the pictures made it seem. It’s still pretty dated. The room smelled like carpet cleaner really strong when we first arrived. We had to open the front and back door to air it out. The AC gave off a funky smell but it was tolerable and went away. When it got cold we turned on the heat and that stunk up the room really bad so we turned it off. Sink would back up with water. The curtains were dirty but who really cares about that? What I did care about was the pillows being stained with drool or sweat. Not sure what it was but some of the pillows were dirty and stained yellow. There was a blood stain on the blanket. Over all it looked like they would only come in and wash the top cover, replace the towels, and do surface level cleaning. If you stay here check all your pillows and sheets and ask for them to be replaced if need be. For the price it was nice but cleanliness is never something that should be sacrificed in the price.

Hilton, the caretaker was wonderful. So friendly and sweet. He made the all the difference for us. We might be back if we are in the area just for his service! It was so comfortable and the environment was so friendly. We had a nice view of the small river behind hotel on the balcony.

The beds were comfy and the rooms were relatively clean. There were areas I could tell haven’t been cleaned in a long time. (Vents, base of floor, etc..) but the rest of the room was good. The windows leaked, probably need to be resealed. No weird smells or anything. Beds were clean. Staff was friendly enough. The elevator ran all night & was very loud. So if noise bothers you, you may want to request a room away from the elevator.

The photos are more than what is really shown. It makes it seem like it’s a up to date motel, but it’s not. The photos are deceiving. They look like the photo but less. Would not book again based on photos

Everything was wonderful the only thing I don’t like is that they don’t let me keep my car there for the rest of the day after my check out! I have to pay another $20 for a couple of hours.
