I made a reservation through expedia but when I arrived they didn't have my booking or a room available so I had to go to a different hotel that night. Then when I tried to get a refund, they would not refund me.

The TV in my room didn't work. I stayed for 3 nights and no one ever contacted me to help and those that were around said that there was nothing that thsy could do. I tried to get compensated and the best they did was offer me a discounted stay. I don't live in that town. So, what I paid for, I did not get. Very dissatisfied.

I didn’t get to sat, they tried to run my card early and I needed to be in ground to approve the charge on my phone. They said it didn’t go through and said I didn’t answer my phone so they cancelled it. I never received a call and also didn’t get a text to approve it… I think they saw my price and canceled my reservation because the room was $60 more a night

It's convenient right off the highway, staff was nice and friendly, room was clean and tidy and comfy and the mini fridge worked fine but there was no microwave in the room and every vending machine was out of order but they do provide a decent free breakfast with options like cereal/bagels/ diy waffle station (some folks seemed to have issue using but eh), oranges and toast. Also had a drink dispenser with oj/apple/cranberry juice and water or coffee. Would probably stay here again as it was affordable and they did have a seasonal outdoor pool.

The check in process took awhile. The keys had to be re-programmed everyday. One evening after a long day I had to get keys remade but there wasn't anyone at the front desk. We called out "hello" but there was no response. 2 people came to check in and another needing reprogrammed keys. We were just about to call the police when a woman came down the hall & went behind the front desk. It was something I've never encountered

The lady that checked us in was nice to the other people in front of us and had a attitude with us for some reason, not quite sure what that reason was. The other employees were nice. We were put in the room by the exit so it kept sounding like someone was trying to come in our room when people open and closed the door.

In a pinch, this low-budget hotel works for one night. Considering the dirtiness, drug-use around the property, long-term hotel residents, and the poorly maintained, cleaned, and repaired room condition - one night is all I can recommend.

The smells were awful: our room AND the hallways. Cigarette and marijuana smells everywhere. The down stores door to the parking lot was propped open. The toilet seat had something sticky and dark on it and there was no hand soap in our bathroom. A man used terrible and inappropriate language with my son in the elevator. We had to book elsewhere and no one is offering a refund — Expedia and the hotel couldn’t help.

DON'T STAY HERE

If they are not going to fix all the little things that need fixing, then they should tear it down and erect a decent hotel. The window above the air conditioner was cracked and needed replacing. Tile in the bathroom was cracked and had grout missing between the tiles. the door to the shower was on the wrong side, so i had to manouver around the toilet to get into the shower. The water handle in the shower was loose and about to come off. The hallways were dirty. The "breakfast" was bland and tasteless. The juice machine only had oj.
