Nice quiet hotel for short stays

Quiet. Comfortable. Safe. Needs a better breakfast selection. Staff is friendly. I have stayed many times as it the center for each direction I need to go when I stay. Side door lock to get in needs fixed. It’s a hotel that is older and outdated on inside and updated outside. Yes, I would recommend for short stays.

Staff member at check in wasn’t very friendly. Give us a room that hadn’t been cleaned yet. But give other guests rooms that were cleaned whom checked in after us. We had to wait a additional hour.

Weekend getaway!

Nice place, but needs better lighting though out the rooms and building, a little on the dark side. Good location and friendly staff!

Clean room, public areas need updates.

I arrived at 10 pm. Desk clerk was professional. I thought my room was clean, as was the bathroom. I would have liked at least one room light that was not so cold/blue looking. I did notice a couple of paint options on the exterior side of the bathroom door, which needs to be corrected. Free breakfast was fine. The ladies taking care of the breakfast area were so nice and helpful. Checkout was a breeze. Overall it was fine; I do think the public areas needed an update in the lobby areas, they looked a bit tired.

Very dated property, carpet in room was old. Lobby old and dated. Fitness room poor condition. Breakfast area way too small and tables were on top of each other. Limited options for breakfast choices. Pool was not clean, weeds and actually had a pine sapling growing out of the concrete around the pool. We chose this hotel due to a “8.2 rating” which is completely overstated. Do not stay here!!

Late night check-in on long road trip

Overall, our stay was just fine. We were on a long road trip and needed a convenient place to sleep for the night, and this hotel fit the bill. We checked in around 11 PM, and while the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, I was a bit surprised to see her young children up and running around the lobby with other people still hanging out—it just felt a little unusual. That said, the beds were super comfortable, which is a big deal for me. The rest of the stay was pretty average—not amazing, but not bad either. We needed a place to sleep and grab a quick shower in the morning, and that’s exactly what we got. For what we needed, we were totally satisfied.

Needs an update and good cleaning

This hotel needs to be updated. The carpet and fixtures are old and worn. The bathroom could have been cleaned better. The person at the front desk when we arrived was not friendly nor helpful. The pros? The bed was comfortable and it was pretty cheap. It’s a good place to stay overnight if you only need a place to sleep.
