this place i cant even beleive expedia has on there site. Its dirty very cold very little heat smells and when asking for another room was told if i do like it i can leave without a refund. This was a mistake on my part and i am thinking i will no longer use you as a place to look for a hotel. Very disapointed in exspedia on this one as this place should be shut down befor its recamended to any other person. i should be totally refunded from you for my very little sleep and very cold stay. THANKS ALOT FOR NOTHING AND A BAD PLACE TO STAY ON YOUR SITE.

When checking in i had to show my reservation via phone to the staff to prove i had a reservation, it was very unorganized. Once i got to my room it smelled as if a wet dog had been smoking cigarettes for month's. Completely gross. There was a dirty sock lying on the floor. Throughout the years while working construction i have had to stay in some not so great places. This place has taken the #1 spot in the worst place i have ever stayed.

The staff were nice and helpful. The office looked like the carpets were never cleaned. The toilet had urine stains. There was only one large towel in the room and it had stains on it. The air conditioner didn't cool the room much.

Weeds in parking lot, first thought it's abandoned. Old everything, bathroom tiny, toilet like crapping in a coffee cup. Shower way small. Beds ok, sheets very loose fitting. tv poor reception. Will go somewhere else next time in Grand rapids mn. To bad there is potential. It would only take thousands of dollars and skilled labor to fix up.

The staff is super nice! The room was low cost compared to surrounding properties, but that didn’t affect the quality or cleanliness. It was cozy and quiet. I didn’t have any issues, and I would stay here again.

WOW

Run as fast as you can from this place-I have stayed in a lot of places in my 70 years nothing compares to this place as in scary -the first thing thing that greeted me was the fresh smell of bug killer that was to the point of rendering me sick-I immediately booked another room elsewhere and left
