I was not impressed at all. I didn't have high expectations because of it being a low starred hotel but it actually disappointed me. I stayed in room #260 and it had an **awful** smell in the room. I couldn't tell what it was. It seemed like the smell was coming from the air conditioner, which when I looked inside of it there were clumps of dirt inside where the air was blowing through. I don't know if that was the cause of the odor in the room or not. The sheets and towels appeared clean, and the floors swept. I appreciated not having gross carpet, but under the bed was dusty and the box spring lining was ripped and hanging on the ground. The toilet continuously ran. Later in the evening the whole hotel had a fishy, shrimp smell to it. I'm not sure if someone had cooked seafood or if the odor was coming from something in the motel but it was disgusting. The vending machines were out of order. When I checked out someone had left their 1/2 drank ice coffee sitting on the ice machine where the ice comes out. Both when I checked in the hotel and out there was nobody at the front desk and I had to use the phone on the desk to call. When I did talk to the staff on the phone they were nice enough but I thought it was odd nobody was ever at the front desk. I think for the quality of the hotel it is **way** overpriced for what it is.

I only stayed one night so I'm not sure about longer visits, but my room was very clean and seemed updated. The front desk person who checked in was very nice and informative. I would stay here again if passing through the area and needing a place to stay.

The check in was smooth and flawless. The girl who checked is in was cheerful and uplifting. She was very helpful and was happy to answer questions. Give that girl a raise. She is the face of the company and the company is truly held up by employees like her.

While I'm sure the staff were doing their best, the property outside looked horrible. No landscaping, weeds growing up in both sides parking areas and very sketchy as far as safety. Sign posted as "Park at your own risk". No security or attempt to make guest feel safe. The window is my room was not locked and screen was messed with, which indicated to me that entries had been made through the window by non guests of the hotel. The other room that I paid for occupied by another couple in my group also had a window that was not locked and had the same unsecured screen. I did not feel safe here, and will probably never stay there again.
