Horrible

There was as leak in the bathroom and I was given a smoking room. When I asked for a new room, the front desk person was appeared up set.The cable just had a few channels. The worst part was that the Channel 2 News was an adult channel. There were fleas in the bed. The breakfast was cereal, OJ, milk, dounuts, and coffee. I would not stay at that place again.

Never, Never Stay Here!!!

Where to start? I would strongly suggest you not stay at this hotel. Trust me on this. Don't let the positive reviews fool you. Those people were either drunk, or family of the owners. Pay the extra $20 and find a chain like Hampton, Marriott, etc.. Stinky rooms. A combination of urine and a rest home. Matresses and pillows have stains. The bed blanket had marks, stains, or holes. Carpet is awful! The vanity is bad. No remote for the TV. Not enough parking. Don't let the free breakfast fool you. Cold cereal, but no milk. Ran out of donuts and didn't offer to get more. The pool was cloudy and full of debris. Worst of all, the service. Pete (supposedly the Manager) was rude! He has forgotten that he is in the customer service business, and that the customer comes first.

Convenient, cheap stay

Nothing special about this hotel, but nothing bad to say either...certainly not a five star, boutique, but for those of you who don't spend much time in your hotel room during vacations, it's perfect...centrally located and parking is definitely an extra perk! The staff is super friendly, as well.

Check in and out was speedy. Good

Check in and out was speedy. Good customer service. Fairly clean room, except for mold on the shower grout. No remote for the TV... kind of frustrating. PROBLEM WITH DOOR LOCK... the door would not latch unless you pulled up on the handle after shutting the door. Luckily my wife is a security freak and always double checks things like that. They did offer to switch the room, but we were only staying one night. Over all, great for the price and location.
