Overnight stay to catch flight.

I was happy to find the hotel clean and attractive for the price. My room was in good order and quite large, ( I had a single queen ) . While I didn't use it, the pool looked inviting. I felt the bed, however, was not as comfortable as I would have liked. The staff was helpful and check in a breeze, write down your license plate number before going in so you don't have to go back out. While I had dinner in there are several restaurants nearby.

Overnight stay

The hotel room was very clean. Checking into the room was efficiently completed. Area surrounding hotel was busy with traffic and transients.

Cheap, but not up to par

Location...the night before I left, there was a drug deal in the neighbor hood that ended up with the dealer being killed. Before that I was just being careful, but not really scared of the location. Check in was great The clerk was friendly and efficient. The room at first glance was clean and spartan. However, when I turned on the air, it was pretty noisy, especially at night! The bed was in need of replacement. It was not comfortable at all. The linens were pratically thread bare. But it was clean and didn't smell. I would suggest is economy was you priime concern and the neighborhood didn't scare you, this place would do.

Good hotel for the price

Good location, 10 min tops from 6th street, downtown area. right off the interstate easy to locate! Rooms and hotel was average, but good place to stay if u intend on being out and about all day. Staff was nice. You get what you pay for, its not top of the line but was perfect while I stayed intown over the weekend for my buddies wedding.

"It worked for me"

Seemed to be convenient location. Friendly staff at check-in. On the second morning of my 3-night stay, I kept getting asked for a coupon for the free breakfast. I was not given any coupons at check-in. The room smelled stale, probably from a water leak or wet carpet. Bugs (crickets and gnats) in room. Not sure everyone would feel safe here. When I was checking out, a couple of young ladies were quite upset that their car had been broken into (the window smashed out) and there things had been stolen.
