Very difficult to charge devices!

Check in was fine, but as soon as I got to the room, I found visible dirt and hairs on the top of the toilet tank. The rest of the room was clean, but it took FOUR outlets before I found one that would hold up the plug to charge any of my devices! That was the biggest problem. Bed was comfortable. No hot tub, the clerk said it was "covered up years ago."

Really clean

Check in was so easy! The front desk staff was awesome letting us know what to expect during our stay. The room was VERY clean and while it could use some updating the only thing I ever care about is if I can walk around barefoot in the room and if my kids can crawl on the floor. Yes to both is always a win. Breakfast was great. The pool has the potential to be something really special and had a 2 ft area where my toddler was able to stand. 10/10 for this place and the wonderful staff.

It’s an average motel/hotel. Nothing special. Breakfast looked awful. I couldn’t even get myself to try it. The bed was lumpy but for the cost it was what it was. I’ll pay more and stay elsewhere.
