Good, but not quite great

This hotel is a bit of a mixed bag in all aspects. The rooms are always clean and comfortable, but they do feel outdated in some ways, such as a functioning but LOUD air conditioning unit or a reclining chair that feels broken but is still usable. Some employees were very kind and helpful, but others came across as gruff and "too busy to deal with this" when I had issues such as my key card not working on the second day of my stay. It does score high for being in a convenient location, with a few grocery stores and restaurants within easy walking distance or a simple drive down the highway. But that can come with some traffic noise if your room faces the highway. I did not eat breakfast or use any other facilities, so I can't speak to those. All in all, it's worth it for the price they charge compared to other hotels in the area, but you do get what you pay for.

Deserves a lower ranking

Very limited breakfast offerings. Located on a main road through town and could easily hear traffic through the night. Desk person didn’t know how to generate a receipt. Otherwise, fairly clean and moderately aged furnishings in the room and lobby.

Good property. My only complaint was a noisy refrigerator in the room overnight. I could have easily unplugged it had I realized where the noise was coming from. Other a good room.

OK, but disappointed

I don't like that I was duped by Hotels.com when I thought I was booking directly with the hotel. Because of that I paid $20 more than I should have. As a senior on SS every penny counts and I couldn't even get my AARP discount because of this too. The ice machine was broken so no ice. The bed mattress needs to be rotated because it was flattened and going downhill on the lamp side.
