Easy check in process, clean and spacious room, great water pressure, could have had better pillows, and the A/C unit is a little confusing to understand but it works great once set. Fridge kept food and drinks cold and even refrozen ice packs in the top. Overall great stay!

A clean, quiet hotel with friendly staff. Check-in was painless. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was somewhat lacking, but more than made up for by a hot shower and a good nights sleep. I’d stay here again if passing through the area. A bonus, they let me park my motorcycle right by the entry so it would be visible on their security cameras.

A clean, nice place to stay with helpful staff, good breakfast (sausage and eggs, etc.). Air conditioning was moderate; it was off when we got there. Turned it on, went to dinner, and it was beginning to cool upon return. Didn't get really cool until midnight.

The breakfast was not great, they need condiments like ketchup, hotsauce. The air in our room worked good and kept it cool. The bed was super comfortable and the room was okay just a basic room. I would like to say the lady that checked me in was exceptional, she was so nice and friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The first room we were put in was stinky, stains everywhere--on the floor, on the cloth covered bench, the bedspreads, the bedsheets. Horrible. We asked to change rooms, and it was better in the bedroom, but the bathroom was semi dirty. We survived the night, but will NEVER stay here again.
