Overall not too bad

The room was ok, ac worked well and it did look like they cleaned the room. But the bed wasn't that comfortable for us, not enough pillows(we only had 1 pillow each). We did have a couple of ants crawl on my husband while he was laying down and roaches on the desk and bathroom counter. The service was nice. Overall, not really that bad but if there's a next time, we'll be better prepared for the place.

This is a very old facility, and the mattresses were new, but the sheets were old.The pool was green and there was alot of debris stacked everywhere. The young man at the front desk was very polite and I can say that the room was clean.

They are working hard on improving the property Pros: -Very friendly staff -hard working crew -safe parking -hot coffee in main area of office -comfy beds for the price you're paying -working hard to improve themselves -colleagues report they were way better than their neighbor motel on the bed feel. Cons: -soap/body washes etc terrible -towels/washcloths really rough and itchy -door I stayed in did not have any extra latches and there was a clear gap in the bottom of the door that I could see outside -spiders, I can normally handle it but there were lots of spiders in the covers and around that I had to chase out. Multiple days. And I know I saw them cleaning their butts off! :)

Great place to stay without breaking the bank!

Checking was easy most hotels don't let you check in until after 2:00 or 3:00 in the afternoon but they let us check in before then. The manager on duty was very helpful in answering any questions I had. Overall cleanliness was decent. I had a decent amount of towels and washcloths which is something I like to have. If I had to rate My overall experience between a one and a 10 I would give it a 10.
