We wanted the privacy of a cabin. unfortunately it was not as pictured on their website. It wasn't the cleanest, they even left their sunglasses and trash in the room.

Horrible beds
The bed was TERRIBLE. Hardly got sleep for 2 nights because the mattress was so bad. It literally felt like I was sleeping on a box spring. The room had a funky smell to it. It was hard to catch anyone at the front desk. The TV didnt work. The only positive things: good water pressure in the shower, and the property was quiet considering it is right off the highway. For what they charge per night, it was absolutely not worth the cost. They need to replace the mattress and the bedding. We went to Walmart to purchase our own sheets, pillows, and blankets!

Would not stay again
Stayed in I thought would be our own cabin but it is shared with a wall in between very loud. Tv channels didn’t work. No curtains in the kitchen. Had a funky old smell. Supposed to have continental breakfast but nothing was there. Check in guy was nice though.

No working deadbolt lock. For the cost, I would have preferred a nicer room with a secure deadbolt lock. Sheets didn't seem very clean. Front desk help was very friendly and kind, so that was a plus. Shower towels were thin, but the water was nice and hot. I just didn't feel very safe in the room.

Sh!t hole
Absolutely disgusting. This is the worst hotel. Actually we didn’t even stay, we took the key back to the front and left. Navy blue sheets with stains all over them. Hairs all over the bathroom. Dirty toilet. Just gross. No thanks!!

The room looked clean at first glance. However, the floor in the room left the bottoms of my wife and I’s feet brown walking barefoot on them. The mini fridge had old food left in it. The location advertises Wi-Fi, but the Wi-Fi is only accessible from the main building, which closes at 10pm. To top it all off, the beds are arguably the most uncomfortable I have ever slept on.

Too experience for what you get! The front desk staff was hardly there for assistance. We rang a bell several times and called the off hours number with no response. Shady people on the property. Cobb webs hanging everywhere from the ceiling. Opened the window to see a junk yard of dirty mattresses and furniture. To be honest the place was disgusting and I would not stay there!!!

Inspect before you pay...
We picked this motel because it had very good ratings. The man at the desk was super friendly and nice, but that is where the good ended. Our room had no toilet paper, no soap and only 1 towel. He did respond and brought the missing items. However, the room was not clean. The walls had smears, especially near the toilet, the tub didn't look like it had been scrubbed in some time, there was a bug on the wall and the deadbolt on the door did not engage. The walls are so thin we heard our neighbors' entire conversation, and their TV sounded like it was in our room. I also heard that tenant complain of only one towel for both her and her father. The bed my friend was on seemed OK and she was not bothered by the smell, but the one I was on nearest the front door seemed to be only a box spring with no mattress. It was uncomfortable. The bedding smelled OK, but every time I laid down all I could smell was a stench that I can only describe as an old man that chews tobacco and hasn't taken a bath in several months. It was nauseating and I was unable to sleep. This property is in a convenient location, has much potential and I wish the owner well, but he needs to gut room 54 (and probably others), repaint, new carpet, new mattresses, etc. In fairness, he "may" have upgraded a room because there was an old mattress behind the building by the dumpster. Forget breakfast, all I saw was some cereal and not much else, so we went to the restaurant across the street.

Nightmare.
We had to wait over 30 minutes for anyone to show up to check us in. By then , 5 people were waiting. They gave us a room and it wasn’t clean. They gave us another room, it was better, but smelled of smoke. The sheets were dark blue and black. So no way to bleach them. Our friends had to leave, there sheets had spots on them. Another couple called the Manager to complain and she was dismissive and rude. Called the lady white trash and said she would be there in 10 minutes to kick her a$&. Will never stay here again.

Breakfast was nonexistent - 1 pot of coffee and it was empty? No silverware of any kind. Metal or plastic? They said they'd not recieved a shipment? Grounds had not been mowed at all - just not well maintained at all?

Overprice as it was sold as a good family place. Dirty bed clothing. Only one shampoo and shower gel in a room for 4; old towels; breakfast only with a bit of coffee and cereal and some toast. Receptionist wasnt helpful and did not even say a word when returning keys. We will never go back and dont recommend.
