The room was extremely outdated. The TV was in the far right corner instead of being in front of the bed. The sheets looked filthy. The bathroom was nasty. I ended sleeping in my clothes on top of the bed spread .

This property and its staff exceeded my expectations upon arrival and my departure. Every aspect of my stay was truly a delightful experience. The staff was very gracious. The room far exceeded its competition with excellent quality room size, quality furniture . The bed was a clean supportive queen size bed Supporting my 6,3 300l pound body. Along with its nice clean smelling sheets and pillows and well decorated decor. The bathroom was very clean and had great water pressure with well maintained plumbing. I’d highly recommend this place for a great room and safe good nights sleep away from your home on the road. Thanks, Alex

The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room had recently had a facelift and was very neat, clean and tidy. The bed was very comfortable. Having a microwave and refrigerator is always nice. I guess if I had to pick one thing that wasn't the best, was the bathroom was very small. But it was clean and efficient. I would def recommend and use this place again, especially for the price.

Good deal for the price

It was convenient and a good price, and the staff was quite nice. But it was rather run down and had only exterior hallways.

This is a great place for a cheap but clean stay. Bare basics as one would expect for the price. Nothing to earn a 5 star at this location but also nothing to complain about.
