The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were very small and could have afforded to be cleaner, the bathroom was kinda gross, I had to go buy cleaner and clean it myself. The bed in my room was on a 2x4 because the frame was broken. Although the sheets were clean and had a very generous sized TV and a decent Direct tv package. They were under some renovations to update the property, so hopefully after those the property will improve!

Our room was NOT clean when we checked in. There were stains all over the lampshade, comforter, and sheets. When I told the front desk, I was not given an apology, or any words as a response. Instead, the room key was snatched out of my girlfriend’s hand, while he silently changed the room. No apology, no discount, just silence. Photos attached of the first room we checked into, 108.

Staff was great. Room was a good size. Bed was comfortable. Water pressure was good. Area around hotel somewhat noisy due to the roadway, but not detrimental to the stay at all. Wish it was nicer weather so I could have checked out the pool! Only recommendation wish I could have streamed from my phone to the TV! Enjoyed my stay. Thank you!

Room was spacious, surprisingly quiet, despite first floor near entrance,and comfortable (excellent mattress) with microwave, fridge, coffeemaker, iron/board,hairdryer---all quite adequate. However the closet bar for hangers was too low to accomodate a dress. Only a sheet and light coverlet were on the bed with no additional blanket in the room. The bathroom floor was not very clean and the room smelled strongly of febreeze when we arrived. Breakfast was satisfactory with the exception of the really terrible, weak coffee and only "milk" (no clue if skim, whole, etc) to put in it.
