It was a very old building, and the office really showed its age, but inside the room, it was up-to-date and very clean. Did have a spider and one cockroach in the bathroom. Refrigerator and microwave, but no coffee in the room. Big dirt spot where the pool once was and one very old car out front. Strange that there were no cars in the parking lot, then bus dropped off a lot of farm workers. They were very quiet, though, and I had a great night's sleep there.

I would not stay here. The pillow cases were stained and the pillow itself looks as if it had been dragged through the roads and shoved back into the pillow case, not to mention there was a DEAD ROACH on my bed. At that point I didn’t even want to look or search the rest of the room. Me and my family packed everything up and left. The owner did offer me another room but at this point I just wanted out. If your traveling with little ones or family oriented I would not stay here.

Good dove hunt

The hotel room was very comfortable. The AC unit worked well as did the TV and the refrigerator. The microwave did not work but was not needed. The bathroom and shower was very acceptable. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay. Recommended hotel for upland game hunters.

The hotel attendant was nice and friendly. Check-out time was convenient. Didn't like the uncleanliness, the unsavory characters that were staying at the inn. Unsafe and did not feel secure at the place. Would not recommend this hotel.
