Cheap room
The room was musty smelling. Black stains on the sheet, The room did not feel clean. The plus was a new AC/heat unit. Very bland! No pictures on the walls. Cheap room, but you get what you pay for.

The lady at the check in wasnt very happy at first cause we were a one nighter. The hotel is very old and def needs updating. We stayed there cause all the other hotels were full and the kids were very tired. My whole demeanor changed when I saw an empty condom pack next to the bed, thats when I couldnt give anymore chances. Sorry but maybe this will help the owners take care more of the property. There is a lot of competition I guess they dont care that much!!

Worth the money!
Check in was easy and quick. House keepers do not come to your room to bother you so if you need anything you have to ask front desk. Rooms are a little outdated but the AC was cold and the bed was comfy! The only issue we had was the shower drained really slow in the shower. We will be back! Also, do not need food in your vehicles. This guy will find it!

The staff was awesome! Very nice and pleasant atmosphere. The location is awesome, easy walk to the parkway. The cleanliness of the room was a bit under scale.

Lions and tigers and lots of bears
Watch out for the bears…the office left our Key on the door when we checked in and no one was there…the guy that worked there was nice but you have to like his sarcasm and sense of humor. I had to change rooms one night into my stay and he ended up Giving me a key card instead of an actual key. I had to bother him To get the key. The place is A bit soon run down. It’s off the strip but you will for sure see bears. I killed some sort of bug in my room definitely wasn’t a bed bug but the rooms need some Updates. It’s nice if you just want to sleep
