I’ve got updated room, which was very spacious. On one hand, very basic, but at the same time very clean, modern shower and the place where you can get rest. After all, it’s a motel and I was glad I stayed there.

Honestly, this stay (neighborhood sketchy, someone’s old food in fridge, sink squirted water all over, and hard mattress) was very disappointing, but the staff were helpful, which was good.

The biggest asset for this property is the staff. They are friendly and accommodating - I've been at big hotels where the staff was professional, but this place made me feel welcome. I was there during spring break so everything was booked and it was loud and noisy till one in the morning. Also, it's very close to a main street which made it very hard to sleep due to noise although the property has some great amenities there's a lot that needs to be repaired.

The photos on the app must have been taken years ago. Property outside was shabby and minimally clean. The pool was very small and did not appear sanitary. Breakfast offered was minimal. Our room seemed to be clean enough and everything was functional. Seemed to be only one staff.
