This hotel was disgusting! It looked like they came in and did very minor cleaning, I had to request a new room due to the fact that there was a big hole in the wall that went through to the bathroom, the safety latch was broken in both rooms, the second room had ants and mold in the shower. The area behind the bathroom door looked like it had never been cleaned along with the vent! Overall just nasty! The bed was hard and cause me a lot of back pain, worst sleep of my life!
You smell mold as soon as u enter.
I could barely breathe. They do not clean. It was previous soap left in the shower, hair in the tub and on the toilet. Holes in the walls and the walls were d**n near black. The mirror is facing the curtain and it doesn’t close completely which gives a full view of the bed. The linen was soiled so we bought our own.. the ONLY upgrade is to the lobby…..
I would have left if they gave refunds but smh it’s a daggon shame!
I liked the staff very nice, she was new but very efficient. The front lobby was nice. I received a room that had some smashed bugs on the linens that were previously used just re-made for the next guest. The restroom was pretty bad the roll dispenser was falling out of the wall and rusted out. After seeing the small black bugs on the bed I just grabbed my things and left. As I walked to my truck some shady individuals were looking into my truck until I got closer. Good Timing on the exit.
The worse motel I have ever stayed in my entire life the atmosphere was cringe they had beer bottles everywhere in the parking lot and the hotel reception didn’t know what to do the bathroom floors we’re greasy the towel had stain and the bedsheets smell like rotten onions. The room came with roommates such as spiders and cockroaches. The worst motel experience of my life.
False advertising for instance free breakfast wasn't given for 2 morning only coffee pool was closed another reason why I booked my stay here I personally will not book here again thanks but no thanks

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room locks did not work , there was mold everywhere . Also there were bed bugs and stains everywhere in the rest room . The staff was rude , when asked for another room I was told there all was the same and that you “ get what you get “ currently trying yo get a refund
I did not like that the pool was not working and that was the reason that I booked the hotel. I was very disappointed that the website did not state that prior to booking and driving 4 hours to this location.
The management wasnt the best. Beds and room were not dine the first day. Our socks were dirty everyday after walking on the floor. I will never stay at that motel again.
Trash cans overflowing daily. Pool was permanently closed though advertised to be opened. Huge cracks and leaks in bathtub. Floors filthy and gritty. Room was not very clean. Parking lot was dirty with trash everywhere. Broken up parking lot difficult to drive though. Very noisy due to be located right by highway. Everything was dirty and felt very unsafe. Not as advertised at all. Will not be back

Check-in staff was on her phone and didn't seem to be very welcoming. It took a while for her to identify our room and check us in. She didn't seem to be very capable of operating the computer to select our room and check us in. Not very professional. Our first stay at the property. The other hotels we usually stay in while in town were full due to nearby college graduation.
This hotel was horrible. The air vents was full of dirt and gunk. The ac was missing buttons. There was mold around baseboards and mold on the tub. Looks nothing like the pictures. The smell was horrible too! The curtain had holes on it.
Staff was nice tried to accommodate our needs but everything else was horrible.stairway reeked of urine. inside we had to change rooms because the heat didn’t work and the tub was just filthy eww and the second room was no better it smelled of busted sewer and the air and heat unit whined all night. do not recommend.
