A place to lay your head

The Women manager on duty was very courteous and customer oriented.” The bathroom toilet seats were cushioned and very old. The bed was new but too firm. The restroom was very tight & small. The hotel was clean. Be sure to have your room key out just in case someone’s chasing you. At night the doors are locked!

I like the fact that they cleaned your room every other day. Made your bed got clean linens. Most hotels nowadays only clean if you ask or when you're done and leaving. Front desk was extra accommodating and available.Super friendly. I would definitely stay there again.It's worth the money. Nothing fancy but definity better than a super eight or quality inn or red roof. I would rate it in the middle to lower high for our hotel.Just perfect. Thank you to everyone.It was a very pleasant stay.

We stayed on the third floor. The entire hallway of that floor smelled like marijuana smoke. The bathroom also is in desperate need of updating.

The two things that stopped this property from getting a higher rating was the charge for early check in and the thin walls. We could hear the guest in the next room.

The only complaint is that we were there from Thursday to Sunday, and no one came in change sheets. The people at the counter were friendly and the building was great though.

My bedding smelled like women’s perfume which made my linens seem less than clean. Also, the linens were a synthetic material vs cotton, which I don’t like.
