The hallway to our room smelled really bad. The carpets on the hallway are stained. Some other rooms are rented per month. The hotel looked like an old super 8 but it needs updating. The surrounding area seems questionable. Unfortunately, would not recommend this place or will stay here again.

The bed was super comfy and the temperature of the room stayed constant. Towels were heavenly. The hotel on the whole looked pretty shabby inside and didn’t smell great. But, the price was right and I slept well.

Extremely dated hotel that needs to be update.
Super basic motel. Clean room but VERY dated with damaged flooring and furniture. 3rd world hotels are in better shape and cared for. Hallway carpet looked worn out and dirty. Breakfast was empty at 6:30 but told it was open at 6. Left for McDs. Thankful my stay was 8 hours.

Very dirty and very run down. Very disappointed when Expedia rating was a 7 "Good" when I booked it. I would never stay here again and would not recommend it.

Yuck! Never again! Moldy shower curtain, stained carpet everywhere, hair in the tub, dirty bathroom mirror, mattress that must be at least 20 years old, stained vintage bathroom sink, it appears owners and staff just don't care.

This place was awful. I have asthma and have a sever allergies to mold. I had to use my asthma inhaler 3 times last night and red itchy eyes ( this is how my body reacts to mold). Toilet was dirty when i got there. Room had patches of paint. Tissue holder mounted on the was was broken and was barely holding. Idk how i can upload pictures. I really wanted to get my money back because that room was not supposed to be rented to anyone
