Easy and Clean

It was a very simple hotel. The outside looked a little dingy, but the inside was clean and comfortable. It's a great place if you want something cheap and convenient. I was there for a one night stay and it was perfect for that.

Inventory stay

The hotel is very convienient to the highway. The room was a little shabby and in need of some TLC, but it was clean and overall a good value if you are only staying a day or two.

Not like the pictures

The location was convient for us. We were very disappointed with the cleanliness. The place is run down and needs repairs. We would not have stayed here if the pictures showed the true look of the hotel and the rooms. There were nicer hotels in the area for a cheaper rate.
