Despite there being security our truck was broken into as well as 2 other vehicles. The only help the team offered was an old vacuum... and that the manager would be in on Monday. I emailed the manager asking for the video footage and other efforts to make this awful experience right. I have gotten NO RESPONSE. Will never stay here again when visiting for AQHA Congress.

Great place reasonably priced.

My boyfriend and I stayed here because it was one of the closest hotels that was within a fair distance and reasonably priced. Check-in wasn't until 4pm, however, the Manager there was at the front desk. He checked us in early. The room smelled clean. Everything was nice. Hotel staff were great. I wish we could have had breakfast, but we got up too late for it :(. Check-out was very easy as well.

Terrible stay.

When we opened the door to the room smelled, it was a very distinct musty odor. Faint smell of stale cigarette smoke. We used the AC to help with this. The bedside light next to the far bed didn’t work. The room was dingy and badly needs an update. The pillows on the bed were tiny, maybe half the size of standard pillows. Beds are hard and uncomfortable. The sheets had faint stains, some looked like footprints. The biggest issue was the next morning, the shower only had scalding hot water. The front desk would not answer the phone from the room or when we called from our cell phones. We had to go all the way to the front desk to get assistance. This issue held us up by about 2 hours and we missed our breakfast plans. It was extremely frustrating. There were no rooms to change to. Staff was not very helpful overall. Location was not great either, I did not feel safe in the working lot at night, although there was a police car with lights and police cameras running all night. I would not recommend this hotel at all.

I had to buy odor band and Lysol and every time I left the room in and out I had to spray again and had the window open and it was still stinking in there.. other than that everything else was great
