Staff was pleasant but the hotel is under construction which at times lasted til later night. During the construction was Grab and Go breakfast, which was a bag with one small muffin and a pack of 3 donuts. There were a few apples and a few yogurts out with juice. Good for a budget. Right off Hwy 90
This place was awful. Pool was under construction, dirty, breakfast was a joke, had small package of donuts and a small muffin in a brown paper bag, rooms dirty, construction was going on and woke my family at midnight so at 1:00am my family had to pack our stuff and move. Nothing was great.
The washing machines were down but they are in the middle of a remodel the mall was right up the road and gas station right down the street the rooms were awesome and the staff was top notch very friendly was looking forward to swimming but that area is being remodeled also the motel will look great when the construction is all over and done also a fast food place was within walking distance and a mexican restaraunt also within walking distance right along with a golden ticket theater
It was Dirty, and there was black trash bags taped on the walls , you could see when walking up to the motel that some windows on the second floor were broke and were taped together. The whole reason I brought my 4 year old grandson there was because the pictures of the motel showed a really nice pool with a big windy slide.. well the whole pool area is tore down. I felt like I brought him to the crack/trap motel!
The property was being widely renovated so a lot of the normal services were unavailable. But a huge inconvenience was our room didn’t have a phone and the bathroom wasn’t the greatest looking. We ended up changing rooms because our first room the tv didn’t work and in our second room the ac didn’t work to well. Our pillows were flat and the beds were uncomfortable.
The property was under construction: the sliding door didnt work, the room smelled like smoke, the tub leaked all night, the lamb was broken. The tv remote didn’t work and so couldn’t watch tv for the three nights I was there: the outlets didn’t work. They didn’t not turn my room down the entire time I was there. It was a terrible experience. I would not recommend.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
So so dirty, mold on the shower curtain, toilet was stabilized with shims and cardboard, smell was awful.
The property is definitely under a remodel right now but that is not shown on their website or Expedia. The pool is closed, multiple floors are closed and have plastic hung including right at the front lobby. Breakfast was minimal to say the least. We had to grab breakfast somewhere else. We have stayed here before but won't be again.
Staff was super helpful and friendly. Breakfast options were great. Pool has a whole water slide so thats awesome. Then theres a sweet hot tub next to that.
Hotel was under construction and the fumes were so harsh we couldn’t breathe in the hallways. The room had dirty sheets and headboards, no phone. The manger checked us out and cancelled the stay and said he would refund. We were there less than an hour. Would not stay again
Parking was a wreck with construction. Rooms were dirty. Staff was not welcoming. Dead bugs and cockroaches in the room. Smell like weed. The entire time we were there. We actually checked out shortly after dinner and booked another hotel.
Wasn't aware of the remodel and closed pool or we wouldn't have stayed here. Bathroom and floor weren't clean. Towels were not hung but just thrown in place.
