This hotel is nice for the price, it’s a bit older and needs some touch up paint work and maybe some deep cleaning but we would stay here again when in the area.
Clean, safe, comfortable furniture and great atmosphere.

Room was ok, but no hot shower. Also, not enough food was prepared and coffee was not provided. Affordable option, but I won't book here again.
This place is falling apart. Tv and toiled didn’t work right. Mattres has noise when you move in the middle of the night. There is one guy over there that try to fix every thing

It was a decent area, however if they would let customers know that there is a time cut off to check in and a closing time for the lobby, it would be extremely helpful. No where on the website does it tell people you cannot check in after 11pm. It also does not have the hours for the complimentary breakfast anywhere. That information would be helpful to know.
So the room was poor quality the front door didn't even lock the entire time the bathroom needed attention or the toilet there was no attendant most of the time in the lobby you get what you pay for I guess

Dirty. Breakfast was pitiful, no coffee left and no employee around to fill it. Honey buns set out we're expired. Employees sitting on the couch ignoring guests watching movies at full volume. Pool has been closed for weeks apparently no fix in sight, still advertised as working. Room and view was decent but the lack of F's given my staff was obvious. Shame.
