We entered the room and immediately walked back out to check out. I am saying this as someone who drove 8 hours and just wanted to sleep. This was one of the cheaper hotels... but when I entered the hallway to our room, the carpets were stained and it smelled so bad. When we got into our room, there were more stains on the carpet, the chairs, AND the bed covers. There were cigarettes holes burned into the covers as well. The cabinets were broken and chipped. The bathroom was gross. The shower drain was black and there was a huge brown recluse spider (so we think) in the sink.

Do not book!

Owner/manager and receptionist very unprofessional. Housekeeping knew more details of the property than owner. Check in stated 2pm, room was still not available at 4pm. Extremely rude and unprofessional, resolution was to cancel the stay, meanwhile he did not cancel and still proceeded to attempt to find a “clean” hotel room. Gave benefit of doubt and went to room provided. The room was disgusting, mold in the room, cigarette holes in blankets. I wouldn’t allow my dog to put his paws on the carpet.
