DONT STAY HERE

This was the worst hotel I have ever been to! Very rude, they were very inhospitable and tried to screw us out of money! Plus they have a gas leak in the back! Just waiting to turn to rubble, then it might be worth something!

It's giving scam!

Beware! This place does not fully return deposits. They claim for a service fee and cleaning fee. When you make deposit they do not tell you this. I called to find out why my entire deposit wasn't returned and was called gay and shouted at. Then i placed this dame review on Google and the lied and said I was kicked out which is very far from the truth. Check other reviews about their scammy practices.

Good bed, all else less than favorable

Bed was amazing. However hotel was dirty, baseboards, trim , and walls were dirty, not repaired and ripped materials. If you are looking to sleep only the bed was great. Everything else was not a good experience.

For the price the place was great and the staff was very nice. This was not the first time we stayed there, either. The only thing was the shower didn’t work. Thankfully I only ran 6 miles and didn’t stink too bad.
