Arrived for check in and was welcomed not very warmly by a man who seemed to be in charge. Did not speak to me or my boyfriend hardly at all, and proceeded to leave for about 5 min with us alone in lobby. We walked into our room to find shoe prints on our sheets, crumbs on the floor, and the shower was covered in rust. Immediately alerted the man who checked us in that we would like to check out, and we left for a different hotel. Unfortunately we could not get a refund. After letting him know about the conditions of our room, he seemed to not really care at all, didn’t try and make it right, and we went on our way. I would strongly advise not to stay here!!

I knew going into this stay i wouldn't be getting luxury, but it was nice and clean, the beds were comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was a little run down but you can't beat the location for walkability to the lake, the casinos, and the shops and restaurants. I'd stay there again.

Clean but outdated which is in line with the low price. The trouble came when I left 2 shirts in the room. Uncooperative and rude staff and I will never get them back. I was told it's my fault for accidentally leaving them there. The post office has black listed this motel and won't work with them. Very disappointed.

Would NOT recommend this place
I don’t even see how this place has three starts. The hotel room was very dirty, there was pee on the wall in the bathroom. Everything was not clean from the sheets on the bed to the towels hanging up in the bathroom. We actually left to Ross and bought bed sheets and blankets. I was worried we were going to get bed bugs. The guy in the front office was not friendly and he made it seem that you were bugging him. I would NOT recommend this place even if it’s for a one night trip.
