It was ok

Access to the hotel was quick for the family, right off of 95. A couple food chains near by, Walmart down the street as well. Check in was quick, small lobby, there was a leak though from the ceiling by the little shop they have for snacks and amenities. Hallway leading up to the room had a faint cigarette smell. Room was spacious enough for our family of 4 (2 Kids under 10 and 2 Adults). The room was overall ok but my child dropped something on the floor near the headboard and when I went to pick it up I saw disgusting yellowish nail clippings, several of them, along with dirty dusty earplugs all behind the bed.

Last minute booking, I was driving from the Pan Handle of FL to NY, so glad it was available. Parking area well lit, check-in was smooth. The woman at the front desk greeted me by name and we had a laugh because I arrived at 2am, and that's not common. Very clean and secure hotel.

We felt unsafe upon late arrival in the parking lot, there was a leak in the lobby with buckets & towels, we slept in the room because it was late and when we woke up found a bedbug crawling on one of our beds. Had to bag all of out belongings and leave a portable crib behind due to fear of bringing them home.

Disappointed. Building needs serious maintenance

Check-in was fine. Staff were friendly but completely overwhelmed. Appeared to be 1 person working for a completely full hotel which meant the check-in desk was unmanned for about 30 min at bedtime. We’d have been in serious danger if there had been an emergency. Building needs serious attention and is arguably hazardous. Pool was green. There was a leak in the lobby ceiling right in the doorway of where the snack shop is so had to dodge dripping pipes to get a drink. No working room phones at all- front desk said they were “updating the system”. Room was also a dud. Toilet clogged immediately- there was no onsite staff to help so they gave my husband a plunger which didn’t work. They had a maintenance person called in which took about 30 min. He did fix it but told us there “wasn’t someone available” to come re-clean the bathroom floor which had been splashed with dirty toilet water. (I cleaned it myself with Clorox wipes). And since there was no phone, getting this sorted took multiple drips downstairs. The closet doors didn’t close fully. The fridge got cold ish. The pull out sofa was ok but there were no pillows and the hotel “ran out” of blankets so my daughter slept with 4 sheets on her instead The room appeared to be quite clean but given the state of the building and the room, it was hard to trust it. Overall, a huge disappointment. Go 15 down the road to the one in Roanoke Rapids- light years better!!
