The pictures are not current. Not a bad place for the price. Few of the clientele weren't exactly very courteous and the odor of weed was strong throughout the complex and the rooms wreaked of it.

Check-in was at 4:00, but we didn’t arrive until after 6:00pm and our room was still not ready. We had to wait for another 30 minutes in the lobby after driving for seven hours. We had received an email room upgrade offer, but it wasn’t available either. The room smelled like cigarette smoke, but was clean for the most part. The continental breakfast had a good variety of options. The grounds were not well kept and everywhere you turned you smelled weed being smoked by guests.

Hotel located between two highways. Convenient for travel but you hear trucks and motorcycles all day and night. Coffee was not drinkable for any of the 3 days we stayed. OK, if you want to cook in instead of eating out cuz local food was pretty bad.

When I first checked in my room wasn't ready had to wait. Once I got into the room the toilet wouldn't flush. Called the front desk and they said maintenance was not available until tomorrow morning. She offed to move me in to another room but I was tired and ready to turn in for the evening. Thankfully the toilet strted flushing. For the next two mornings I showered with no hot water, the water was cold. I didnt bother to call the front desk because maintenance only works certain hours during the day.

We had the suite and there was tons of room. The place was older but okay. Beds were great. Having a full fridge was nice. We had an issue with other guest making too much noise but the place made it right. Ac unit was very loud when it turned on.
