Decent hotel in a pinch. Not in a great area, hotel was actively painting the entrance doors and handrails during check-in time, possibly not the best planning as multiple customers (including myself) got wet paint on us trying to access our rooms

The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The room was clean, but the shower wasn’t working. When we call the main office they offered to change the room, which was nice.

I stayed in for almost 2 weeks great staff all helpful. Just minor complains like doors in the room need better alignment large gap between door and frame so a beam of light from hallway can be seen when door is closed. The room I was in sink leaks after a few minutes of constantly running water. No security so homeless roam around in the parking lot and dumpster. Laundry facility is good just ask the front desk for change to use in the machine do not use csc mobile pay it doesn't work. Overall room is clean, no stain on sheets or towels, and room gets clean every 2 days. The hot breakfast is good enough to start your day.

I have stayed here twice. The second time was an accident because I did not remember the name of the place. This place has an awful smell. Throughout the hallways it just smells really awful. The room itself is just average. It definitely needs updating. The bed was very uncomfortable. The parking is free. That is a huge plus. The last time I stayed here I got up at 3:00 AM and left. The bed was so uncomfortable that I could not stand it. Then I tried to go turn in my keys but no one was there. I waited 15 minutes and no one came. That meant I had to drive all the way back there to drop off the keys later that day. Also the first time I stayed here when I was on my way to check out a homeless couple approached me and asked me if I could add them to my room as guests so they could have breakfast. I felt really uncomfortable doing so. I told the front desk person but she acted like it was not a big deal. I do not know if it happens often and that is why her response seemed unbothered. At any rate I gave them a $20 bill for breakfast and left. So between that and the smell I will definitely never stay here again!

This hotel has become a bit of a hidden gem. The rooms are a bit small, especially the bathroom, but it is comfortable, quiet, convenient and the breakfast was very nice and tasty. So glad they had an available room when we had to do a late night relocation from where we had previously booked due to A LOT of problems at the prior hotel.

My friend had bed bugs bites on her arm and face. At first I joke and was like they look like bedbugs. And she was like I get bad mosquitoes bites like this. So we thought nothing of it bc we thought they were mosquitoes bites. We put cream on it and went about our vacation. But then she it got worse and again, we chalk it off to mosquito bites bc she gets really bad mosquitoes bites. Esp since I didn’t get any bites. I was sleeping on the other bed. We checked out of the inn, she came home and her nurse mom told her they were bed bugs bites and she had to take meds for the reactions. We contract the hotel thru Expedia and the hotel said nothing they can do bc we didn’t say anything during the stay. I have pictures of bites at well.
