It literally looks like a crack den. With the gnarly drapes that are falling off the hooks, and the messy red paint job, and the nauseating amount of glade deoderizing spray in the hallways, they have some nerve charging the amount that they do. And the mattress....the cement mattrress. Terrible. The front staff was lovely, though.

You get what you get for the price. The staff was a plus, they were friendly but the bed were super uncomfortable, as well as the pillows. The fan in the bathroom was so loud it would wake anyone sleeping should someone use the bathroom late in the night. People were hanging outside, by our window, waking us up. The room had a slight smoke odor, not sure if it is seeping in from outside or from a previous guest.

We didn't stay there. There was nobody there . The place is run down broken windows. I wouldn't leave my worse enemy there. I will get me refund back . This place is a scam pictures online are false advertising. All the windows were closed by blinds paper cardboard. Someone needs to close that place and take it off the Internet

This property is exactly what you would expect. A simple, clean, safe place to stay while driving through. Nothing special or extraordinary but definitely gets the job done and I would stay here again for the same purpose at this low price point. The water pressure in the shower was surprisingly good.

Probably best to stay elsewhere

There was nobody to check us in - no instructions given, as to how to get the room cleaned or how to ask for more towels - basically self serve. - children playing baseball I. He parking lot -the only plus side was that it was decently clean plus it had dungeon lighting

First night was ridiculous, people shouting and banging on my door at 3 in the morning. Cops were called and needless to say, I didn't get any sleep. Room was outdated and things were falling apart. Under the bed was the most disgusting thing ever. There was food and a beer can, I don't think they've cleaned under there in a long time. Beds were comfy and the room was cheap. Get what you pay for, I geuss.
