Cheap stay
The property was a bit unkempt but did the job for an overnight trip.
Shiniest aspect of a somewhat frustrating weekend... Exceptional staff... Super clean room... Loved that the room included a microwave and a fridge! Would absolutely stay here again!
No hot water all photos online need to be updated they are old pictures from when the place was nice now it's run down and falling apart there is nothin good I can say about that place especially for 105$ a night
They permanently closed the pool when online it states they have a pool and it stated they had breakfast and they do not

Hotel was fine. Room was mostly clean and quiet. Easy check in. The first room door key did not work. They just transferred us to another room. No breakfast or any thing it is just a place to sleep.
The furnitures were old and dusty, there was just ants randomly all over!! Sheets were very old and bad colored and the toilet sang all night. The shower was also stained and looked disgusting
A sub-par stay. I can see that they are trying, but the check-in process was painfully slow, the room smelled pretty bad, and the cleanliness needs a LOT of work. We'll find other places to stay when in the area again.

Good value
Good value. Friendly front desk at midnight check in. The room was very hot and humid and took over an hour to get the humidity down. I would stay again. Needs some updating
