enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It was conveniently located near several fast-food restaurants right off the main road, and parking was easy. The lobby was clean, and the building smelled nice inside. Check-in was quick and simple. I appreciated seeing security cameras around the property, which made me feel safe. My room was bigger than I expected for the price, which was a nice surprise. Breakfast was good — my child and I had pancakes, sausage, eggs, oatmeal, toast, and juice. Overall, I think it’s a fair price if you just need somewhere to stay for a night or a few days. Everything was clean, and we had a pleasant experience.

Just HORRIBLE! Roaches under the sheet as soon as my mother pulled her sheets out we called the front desk they asked to see it as if we were lying. Supervisor came pick the roach up with his fingers and threw it away. I asked how could they accommodate us, they suggested putting us in another room after I told him I seen more bugs I told him I rather be refunded. Manger told me he could not do it being that I reserved through Expedia. I called Expedia and they noted and offered me $25 credit and stated that my money would be refunded in 72 hours. They were no help, very unprofessional and tried to convince me to stay with roaches, stink bugs etc. it was definitely a NO for me!

Median thoughts

After some time trying to find a room within the hotel w/o a molded smell, staff did accommodate and was helpful and accessible throughout the stay. Decent hotel that needs an upgrade. Was told initially of a $30 pet fee for the whole stay then at arrival was told it was $30/day. Otherwise no other issues.

It took three rooms to find one that was halfway clean, but there was still nutshells on the floor. First room was terrible. Trash on the floor, bathroom door wouldn’t move because the tracks were gone, chair had something all over it. Went to the office to report it. He handed me another key card and told me to go check this room. There was trash on the floor in it as well.
