Room assigned was somewhat in repair, huge patch on ceiling that somewhat not finished or poorly repaired. Staffs were somewhat incompetent to verify before making decision. My stay almost got checked out a day early bc they found keys same number as mine left at the front desk, while actually I still having my keys with me. My daughter found a staff member in my DO NOT DISTURB room collecting my belonging and I assumed they going to checked me out. Confronted the front desk staff they did not offer any apology and insisted that I checked out bc they found keys at front desk.

My husband and I liked our room and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the free continental breakfast. The staff was very nice when asking questions or needing towels to use at the swimming pool. We liked that Culver’s Restaurant was walking distance from our motel to have supper after checking in.

We stayed here a couple years ago, and they’ve definitely made some improvements since then. The pool area has been updated, and I’m almost certain the room bathrooms have been updated, too. Everything was clean and functional, and the front desk staff was very friendly. There is also a decent continental breakfast.

It needs some updates and it smells really old. The room smelled like an animal was in there and I specifically asked if there were animals allowed in the room due to my allergies and the attendant said No. There were a lot of spiders and spider webs. The bathroom was clean and the towels were clean.

Would give zero stars if I could
I checked in at 4:40pm. I booked and paid for 2 rooms but one of my rooms were not cleaned. I left went out for 2 hours came back my second room was not cleaned. I went back to front desk again thats when the guy at the front desk sent someone from house keeping to the room. The room was not ready until almost 8pm. The white comforters on the beds had stains on them; on both beds. The mini refrigerator would not get cold. No working ice machines on second level. The rooms had a funny smell. I voiced my concerns with front desk he really didn't care at all. Staff and customer service sucks there. The indoor pool had white substance floating inside the pool both days I stayed there. So that lets me know they dont clean the pool daily. The bathroom door did not lock in the room. The floor smelled like pets been in the room, this hotel was terrible please don't waste your money.. I wish I had pictures to post..
