Parking is easy, right in front of room. Convenient for a 1-2 night stay for why I needed the room. It isn't beautiful or perfect, but there are no bugs and the staff is friendly. Bed was comfortable, tv worked. 2nd stay, and will stay again.
Very friendly staff and very clean room. Highly recommend to stay here

For a no smoking hotel it stunk of smoke holes in blankets burn holes also toilet was running when i got there and stuff in toilet .when people walked past room shaked , holes in curtain heater had to turn on off at plug controls didnt work ... lady at desk was ok but when checking in talking staff ...about another room n people ...
The room was nothing like it showed in the picture little bad burnt cigarette holes everywhere in the mattress the cover very dirty sheets pillows worn out stains everywhere on the sheets and cover burn homes microwave cigarette Burns smashed microwave dirty microwave dirty refrigerator dirty bathtub dirty sinks dirty floors rat traps my wife got her foot caught on a glue trap and couldn't get it on trash in the room it was terrible
Don’t come here because hotel was trash and no hot water and they had roaches as well and looks like they don’t change the sheets they had smoke stains and burnt marks on them as well
The room was actually very nice with a very nice comfortable bed. I would definitely stay there again for the price I paid. The only concern that I really had was that the bedding could've been refreshed and washed before my stay.
When we first got there, all I could see were flies and bugs on the ceiling. The sheet on the bed was filthy. The bath tub was so nasty that I had to clean it before I could use it. Their wash cloths looked like they were 10 years old.
It was so nasty an when i rent the room the first time it was nasty an i cleand it an there are roaches an bed bug so bad im going to hospital and then i ask for a clean sheet an blanket they got so mad
Did not stay there the place was so bad we left they were spraying two matteress outside , so musty you could not breath. Must have been 400 flys in the room the smell of urine in the bathroom and crime rate was 3 time the national avg in that area
