Run down but clean
I feel the hotel was clean, but it is kind of run down so it doesn’t really look clean. Lady at the desk was on her cell phone both when we checked in and checked out. Breakfast was scarce, but we knew that from reading reviews. We would definitely stay here again, felt it was more than adequate for the price we paid.

Do NOT stay here, rooms were disgusting and filthy dirty! Pulled the sheets down after getting into the room and there was crumbs, coins and big crusty stain on the sheets. They defiantly did not clean the room after the previous stay! We immediately took our room key back down and checked out and found somewhere else to stay for the night. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!

Meets basic needs only.
The front desk was covered with Plexiglass which surprised me for the area. The clerk was difficult to understand due to her accent and the glass blocking the sound. During check in, she took a personal call and walked away from the desk. When she returned she was still on her phone and I had to ask her to stop her call and finish with us first. The whole place smelled like smoke including the room. The AC worked but was very noisy. The beds were comfortable and generally clean aside from one stain on the sheet which was so obvious I can’t understand why they’d put them on the bed. The shower could have been a bit cleaner but good water pressure and hot water. This place covers the basics if that’s all you need. Not surprised it was the only hotel that still had rooms available so close to an event weekend.

No coffee in room. Clean, but the mattress clearly needed to be replaced. Not enough parking. Unfriendly staff. One room key for 2 people. Won't stay here again.

as i walked into my room the first time the biggest painting/picture fell off the wall. i had hotel cleaning let themselves into my room the first morning as a wake up, the key stopped working and got be locked out of my room, they front desk lady was constantly lounging around but acted annoyed when i spoke to her at all. they also had family running around the main entrance and one of the older men watched me the whole i was going to my car. the room looked like it had been picked up but not cleaned. i'd say it's good for a night of sleep but you'll get woken up. i'd say it's good for a bed but the sheets were stained, my blanket for a nonsmoking room was burnt multiple times over.
