This hotel is really not good. I'd advise to not stay here. We were in town during a busy time and this was one of the last rooms we could find in the area. The bed was so loud and uncomfortable. You could hear and feel the old school springs creaking loudly every time you moved an inch. The TV remote was coated in grime. There was a weird smell in the room. Pros: It was cheap. It didn't feel unsafe, at least. They have big lights in the parking lot to deter car break-ins. Reserved a non smoking room and it didn't smell like smoke. Very easy walking distance to tons of good restaurants. Breakfast diner was great just a block away. Cons: Everything else Loud, hard, uncomfortable beds Dirty Room smelled musty Non working lamp on desk Towels were threadbare and scratchy

This place was not what you would hope for the price, but the staff was friendly enough. Stains on ceiling, weird smell. Bad soap. Bed was not bad, laminate floor was clean.

Would not stay here again or recommend it to anyone. Property looked nice from the outside but the inside was dirty. Water cooler at reception was broken and ice machine was also not working.

The place was not clean. Dead bugs on the floors, hair in the sink, stains on the sheets, etc. We really didnt feel comfortable in the room at all. Service at the front desk was pleasant and helpful at check in and that is about the only good feedback I can give. The room is very dilapidated and needs some serious work done to bring it back to standards.

Like the remodel. Comfortable bed. But the bad… floors were sticky, the drapes looked like bodily fluid were on them. Bathroom clean but towels were stained and cheap-understandable for cheapness but not cleanliness

Meh!
Disappointed room, dingy, the a/c leaked on the floor over night, the lights between the beds were very loose, the plug cover was missing. We reserved for 4 adults, the room only had two small bath towels and the customer service agent at the office was reluctant to hand out more “unless you return the two towels”!! The pool was not open, “speak with the customer service agent after you settle into your room” No recycling bins, had to use major local trash cans.

While the area is not the best part of town. But at least no breakin or anything. Window AC is loud, Linen is old. I guess you get what you paid for. At least the rate is very reasonable.
