I stayed one night while traveling. This is an older property that has made an effort to update the fixtures, furniture, and beds. Beds were comfortable (felt “newish”), but rooms need a good coat of paint and curtains need some help. This place is very underwhelming from the outside, but for the price I thought this was a good place to stay.

You have to pay a fee to park your car here after you already pay 160 a night. The tv is garbage it turns on and off at will. The one nice feature is the bed. I’ve had better stays at a motel 6 for less than half the price.

The front side of the property is constantly and brightly lit, and the drapes are not long enough to block out the light; also, there was not coffee or breakfast the next morning, and nobody was in the lobby at checkout.

We checked in around 10 pm, my husband went straight to sleep. I sleep with the tv on. It had no signal! Couldn't have someone come,to check it. It was outdated. The floor creeked when you walked on it. The curtains were not wide enough to cover entire window, the light came in and reflected straight to where i was sleeping. Then early the air conditioner brought in a horrific skunk smell! Definitely wouldn't recommend this hotel.
