The room was old and moldy. The towels have stains and were ripped. God only knows what those carpets and sheets have seen. Mold in the sink and shower. Musty smell. The breakfast was pathetic—not even a coffee.

Even though we called Earlier in the day to let them know we would be checking in late. My son told him his name and the name of the reservation, they said no problem to check in late. When arrived we were told they couldn’t find our reservation, even though we had a confirmation. Left without a room in the middle of the night.

The room was actually very nice with plenty of room. The outside of the property was in good condition. The staff was very helpful and we needed to use them often.

There was no one at the front desk when I tried to check in and the phone number that was left to call went to a voice mailbox that was not set up. Had to wait 15 minutes to check in. The check in area had many boxes sitting about and the welcome date was Monday and this was a Friday. There were cereal boxes sitting on the floor in the breakfast area. When I went to take a shower I only found hand towels in the bathroom so I had to go get washcloths and bath towels. The desk lamp only had one light bulb in it instead of two. To operate the TV remote nearly required an engineering degree to simply watch local TV stations. On a positive note, I slept very well on a comfortable bed.

I would not stay here again. It’s one of those places that was nice at one point until a certain ethnic family bought it and is running it to the ground. We paid for 4 people, got 2 towels. The couch had some major stains in it and looked like it was from a 70s garage sale. The carpet was sticky. The bathroom floor was dirty. The sheets felt sticky. The room was damp and had an odor. The hallways smelled. Breakfast was waffles, cereal and a choice of 3 breads or a bagel. The hallways were dirty. I’m not a hotel snob but these are the kind of places I would never stay again.

The TV was out from day one. He had said that it was due to weather, but we never had it at all the entire weekend we were there. The room was somewhat clean. There was some marks on the walls by the bed look like maybe from feet or furniture and the area where you would blow dye your hair that had the mirror for makeup had no electricity going to it so I couldn’t use the blow dryer or put makeup on in that area or comb my hair or anything he said since it was a holiday weekend he wasn’t going to call anyone to fix it and that he didn’t know beforehand that it was not broke, but anyone cleaning that area would have to know you couldn’t even turn on a light. There was no area in the bathroom to sit down your things so when you took your clothes in there to change into after your shower they had to sit on the floor, which was damp because there was no air duct to release the heat. Will never stay there again.

Nobody at the front desk, waited for around 15 minutes. Took a long time for him to get us checked in. Property was dirty. Couldn't open our room door. We were told just to try harder. My husband had to put his whole body into the door to open it. That's a safety hazard if you need to get in or out. TV didn't work

Towels were like rags and no spare towel . Absolute minimum Because things were so shabby I got to looking at baseboard.s etc. they were disgusting too. There wasn’t even coffee downstairs, a customer had to make it! None in room either.. We didn’t expect luxury but decent repair and cleanliness was expected

We tried to check into our room for over an hour and a half. Called and called and called, then finally had to call Wyndham and even they couldnt get ahold of anyone. Had to finally call Sheriff to do a welfare check because we thought maybe something happened to staff. New owner and staff (looked higher than a kite) finally showed up and explained that staff had to take owner to enterprise to pick up a car and the phone staff took with them had a dead battery. Sheriff was unimpressed and told them to leave a note next time for customers. Room was clean, but could definitely use updating. Hallway reeked of weed and room was very musty. They had a folded up towel under air conditioning unit to catch water.

OK for a budget hotel

Pluses: For a budget hotel, it was fine. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The room had a little refridgerator and microwave. The TV worked fine. Check-in was easy, and the person at the desk was friendly.
Cons: The room needed some work. The faucet in the tub was not attached correctly. There was a bit of mildew in the tub grout. Continental breakfast was minimal.
The biggest Con was that the security doors in the back of the hotel where one parked were broken and not locked so that anyone could come in at anytime of day or night and no one would see them. No security cameras at all either.

The place is a bit run down and beat up but the rooms were clean and beds comfortable. The Mexican restaurant next door was amazingly good. Excellent food and drinks. Did not expect that. Hotel staff were not that friendly or helpful.

Value for money

Value for money for a late night place to stop for the night. Front office guy was very courteous and friendly. Breakfast was meager but had a Waffle maker. Other than than that it was continental.

Rooms are old but clean. Value for money on a long road trip.

A pleasant experience. Staff was accomodating and helpful. Motel needed some updating, but clean and very comfortable. Felt very safe. Breakfast although a bit sparse was good.

Great price for a nice hotel

The best housekeeping I have ever seen. We stayed a few nights and the rooms were cleaned perfectly every day. We had fresh towels and bedding every day. It was a great stay at a very good price. Check in was fast and easy. Looking forward to staying there again.

Okay, not great

The water in the shower never really got above lukewarm. The room could use some freshening up. There was no stopper in the sink, missing baseboards things like that. But for one night it was just fine.

October Weekend Football Game

We drove in to attend a football game. The venue was ok and economical compared to the options in the are under the circumstances. The place was clean enough though it appeared to need some updates and upgrades. The side door we entered was not secured and the electronic lock was broken and unusable. Our room was about what was expected and clean enough for comfort. I have no real complaints other than the room was a bit cramped for 4 people. This was also true of the breakfast area. This was just the fact of the building itself. I can only suggest some financial infusion to apply a fresh coat of paint where needed as well as repairs to the secuity equipment. I might add that we did not feed unsafe and the area was certainly not a safety concern,

As others say, the property does show its age, but it was clean and comfortable and we just wanted somewhere to stay for the night so we were happy. Checked in around midnight after driving and the front desk staff was very polite, breakfast the next morning was basic but fulfilling and it did what we needed it to do

Construction zone beware.

OK location except the eastbound exit to get to from freeway was closed and it cost me 10 miles. The little packaged hand/bath SOAP was slimy,it was difficult to get the texture/slime off your hand,it was weird.

Pretty good for a hotel near the highway. It's connected to a restaurant which is nice. The facilities and breakfast are pretty basic, but that's to be expected for a roadside hotel.

Comfortable but smoky smell

Our room was clean and comfortable but smelled of smoke (I think because we needed a dog-friendly room, we got a smoking room)

Clueless managment.

Parking lot view of a trucking company.
Totally clueless desk clerk/manager. No idea where to suggest for eating except McDonalds. We found options on Google maps.
Breakfast all gone during breakfast hours and tang for orange juice.

Staff was never available always had to call Continental. Breakfast was nothing but cereal and milk. The room overall was clean. However, the molding around the doors looks like it was eaten by a dog. The caulking around the bathtub was covered in mildew the drain in the overflow drain was disgusting to the point where I didn’t even shower before I left. There was an outlet with cotton and then tape over the cotton or something , which seemed very unsafe. The AC made a horrible noise when it would come on where I could not sleep.

It wasn’t modern but was very clean. I was really impressed with how clean it was for as old as it is. Sheets, bathroom, and room was very clean. No bed bugs, first thing I always check for. We ended up there on a fluke. We were traveling, The weather was bad so we had decided to call it a night. I would stay again if I had to.
