Adequate but still needs some improvements

Had to find affordable stay while doing some family business. This one popped up and looked best for value. Staff was very friendly. Unfortunately gap in door allowed crickets in room and the air conditioner unit struggled to keep room cool but had a lot of humidity inside. Amenities such as ice machine never worked while there and staff didn't have a solution or alternative.

I booked this hotel based on all the “good” reviews it has…misleading! The property’s appearance is good, it also looks like an ok area. We were there for medical reasons, the location was near our destination. We had no issues of vandalism or noise, the room its self looked nice but looks are deceiving! At check in, the front desk person said hardly anything to us. I gave him my name he asked for card and ID. He pointed us to our room and that was all. I had to ask about breakfast hours because he didn’t even offer that to us. Once in the room the smell of smoke was awful. We turned on the AC hoping it would help. It was so late we were ready for bed, we had been on the road 12+ hrs. We hardly slept. The pillows and shower curtains were disgusting, towels smelled like smoke. For the price of this room I bet I could have gotten a better one at a different hotel.

Beautiful clean property

The room was amazing. The lady who was handling check-in and the breakfast buffet was rude upon check-in and kept telling everyone waiting for breakfast everything was as frozen and negative and hateful. The hotel itself was as a nice property, the rooms were very nice. The lady working the lobby at night was friendly and helpful.
