From the outside it looked a little sketchy. Several broken down cars in the parking lot. Torn curtains you could see from the outside and several wires and things hanging on the roof and around the entrance. Once inside things were much better. Lobby and hallways and room was outdated but clean. Beds were comfortable. And appreciated the couch and chair and full size fridge.

Our room was clean with an updated bathroom and flooring throughout. The kitchenette had a full fridge, toaster, microwave, and sink. The living space had a super comfy recliner and plenty of seating for a family of 6. The separated bedroom had comfy beds, cold AC, and an extra vanity and sink, which is awesome when someone needs to get ready while another is using the bathroom. Overall a great experience for our family!

We like the breakfasts at Quality Inns. The room was clean. The location of the room was practically in the Lobby, so would not want a room like that again. There was a sleeper couch, as we needed the extra bed, but….the quality of the bed was very poor. It went up on a slope, very thin mattress. Do not plan on using a sleeper couch room. It should only be used as a couch. Also, there was no bedding, had to ask front desk for linens. Would rate this stay as average….if you don’t need a sleeper couch.

Water was off for 3 hours due to a leak. Room next door had a huge, loud barking dog. Hotel was not willing to address this issue. Office woman was rude to my wife when she mentioned that the raffle mix had run out.

We selected this hotel based on the reviews, but they were so inaccurate. The photos are I don’t know if there are some rooms that are better, but ours was terrible. Property is run down and in poor condition. Examples include window screens that don’t fit windows, patches to walls and ceilings, light switch plates with gaps between the wall and the fixture. Filthy floors; walked barefoot only from the bed to the tub and when I stepped into the tub, black dirt came off in the water. Turned on the sink and chocolate brown water came out of the sink AND tub. As I told my spouse, how can you ever clean the room if the water was never turned on to notice the chocolate water? Tub does not drain. The ONLY thing that gave this hotel poor and not terrible for us is having the Mayo shuttle.
