The phone in the room was broken. They did not have any shampoo in the room. Housekeeping didn’t come around for three days. Most of the furniture looks pretty well worn I believe this hotel could use a little updating for sure. We will not be staying here again.

I only gave good rating to get published. First, they charged an extra 44.00 resort fee above and beyond the Motels.com higher fee which claimed hotels taxes and resort feens included. so, it was not what you see you pay. Then in the morning the water was off totally. all morning and the front desk just shrugged their shoulders.

I stayed multiple days and my room was not cleaned in between times. I did not know that I had to schedule my room to be cleaned. That is absurd. I travel a lot and this is the first time that I had to do that and I was not told other than that the room was OK

Room was fine, but I had 5 full gas cans stolen from the back of my truck. I even parked in a lighted area where the truck was in full view from the restaurant. This was a hunting trip. I guess I was lucky that was all that was stolen.
