Nice place to stay.

For the price and the amenities you can't beat this place. Everything was clean and well kept. There was a funky smell in our room but we turned up the AC and went for a meal. We were to tired to go and find a scented candle in a store, we went back to room and to bed. It was nice to have two queen beds. We usually prefer a king bed, but I just had knee surgery so it was nice to have my own bed. There was no meat or protein option for breakfast. I missed having orange juice but their apple juice (which I usually never drink) was very tasty. I was glad to have waffles as an option. We are planning to stay there on our return trip.

We were in town for a wedding, so only spent time in the room to sleep and eat breakfast before checking out. There was a lot of construction going on in the area, which was a bit inconvenient, but that had nothing to do with the facility. While some upgrading could be done, we felt that it was clean and comfortable to sleep.

Everything was clean and comfortable. The owner and their family live there so they are just hangout out in the lobby. Otherwise it was clean. Didn’t eat the breakfast but it look decent.

This was the first affordable hotel I ever stayed in that left the air conditioner in the room on at a reasonable temperature so that the room wasn’t scolding hot when you got there and you had to wait for it to cool down

Upon entering the room it smelled of mist or mold. Chairs in the room were stained. Lots of construction workers stay here during this the work week probably because of the price. But they have done a number on the cleanliness of the rooms. Would not stay here again.

The beds had very good mattress covers, and blankets. When staff interacted, they were VERY kind. One of the pillows had a large hole in it, with stuffing coming out. The front desk was often unattended. Breakfast had no protein options and there were multiple golf ball sized black mold spots on the bathroom ceiling. I could tell it was family operated and the folks really were very kind but the quality just wasn’t there. All in all, we would have paid the extra $40 to stay in the other hotel across the parking lot.
