this hotel was good for the price. front desk staff was extremely polite and helpful, and the beds were very comfortable. the air conditioning worked really well in our room. we didn’t use any of the extra amenities, so i can’t comment on those. there were some stray hairs left over in the towels and the shower, but the room was otherwise clean.

Thought the area was super convenient and had plenty around to do and see. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. Checked in right at 3p and there was no one there but come around 4-4:30p when the restaurant opens it was full. Didn’t eat there but must be good with how many people were there just to eat. For a night or 2 I would definitely stay again and you can’t beat the price either.

Was obviously updated recently but our room unfortunately had a bad odor inside, maybe a dirty AC filter but was a downer. No coffee maker in the room and no breakfast in the lobby.

You get what you pay for. It was a great price for the night but the hotel was very dingy and had a foul musty odor. The employees we interacted with were very nice and helpful but the hotel needs some major work and cleaning.

Overall this Motel (not Hotel) is Dated & Dingy. Interesting that this is a Wyndham brand, not at the top of their businesses. Air conditioning unit was loud. Sheets/bedding/bath towels were clean. Wallpaper in the room & bathroom was peeling/separating from the wall. Office is not regularly staffed, a phone with instructions is present. Breakfast is barely continental. We did not visit the restaurant downstairs/below main building.

Air conditioning didn’t work, no staff member was there at 2:15 pm when we arrived so we checked in at 9 pm. Realized at 10:30 A/C didn’t work but was too late to call anyone to fix. When we checked out the next morning no one was at front desk again.
