Will definitely be back

The rooms were super clean and smelled so good. The hotel is remodeling but I didn’t hear a thing. The staff are so friendly and check in was quick and easy. The hotel is close to several restaurants and Walmart is close by too. The water in the shower was hot and the ac was very cold. The beds are firm but comfortable. I slept so good. I will definitely be back.

Never again

My stay at this place wasn't the best the place was under construction. The water pressure was terrible, didn't have any hot water, the beds was rock hard. All you could hear at night was slamming doors from other guests. I would not recommend it unless you don't want to sleep.

NOT AS ADVERTISED The pool was filthy, based on the build up of gunk it has been for a long time. The room is outdated. The cost was exorbitant. There is construction which is hopeful but it should be closed while they rebuild. The place is nothing like the ads, and pictures. There’s some kind of black build up in the bathtub. The water got warm at best.
