What a horrible horrible place. All run down and looked abandoned. There was some indigent people around, and the toothless manager came walking up with grocery bags and a dog. She went to seek a manager who lived in one of the rooms who told me their computers are all down and they weren’t taking any reservations. I fled.

Absolutely abhorrent room. The non smoking room I requested, smelled like stale cigarettes. Curtains were dilapidated. Toilet was dirty and would not flush. Bed sheets had holes in and stained. The towels provided were dirty and one of the washcloths was actually a terry cloth you would use for dusting. I was willing to looknpast all that due to being tired and traveling all day, but then there were roaches. Not just one or two. MULTIPLE. Just a dirty place. After attempting to contact general manager for new room with no success, I had to just leave.

Really bad place, roaches everywhere, humid, smells really bad , walls have mold, restrooms falling apart, not safe at all, the room they gave me had another door to access the next door room and it didn’t even had a lock on it, only 2 rusty screws that can easily be kicked in even by my 7 year old, I ask to be moved to another room, they finally gave me another one but the only difference was that it didn’t have another door to access the next door room but the conditions were the same

Do not stay here

The clerk at the hotel was a cross-dresser, while that normally isn’t a problem he came out of a closet, wearing a cut off night shirt and women’s panties before he gave us the key. Then there was a woman with children and her dog in our room. She said she turned the AC on for us. And the bed blankets and pillow pillows were disheveled where they had been laying on the bed. The cold water in the shower did not work meaning the shower was scalding. The sink did not work. The carpet was so gross that we could not walk across the floor barefoot. When we were trying to leave because of the state of the hotel, the electricity for the whole hotel cut off. And did not come back on till after we turned our key back in. The place was not only horribly dangerous and disgusting but completely unprofessional and we are still waiting for a refund. We went and stayed across the street at a different hotel.

Shower leaks, no telephone in the room, neighboring room kept playing a home stereo load that I had to knock on their door twice to ask that they lower the music, no smoke alarm on the wall, just a hole where it was mounted before, sink faucet was too short that you couldn’t put your hand underneath as the spout was too short, found roachs climbing the walls and other bugs. Took pictures of all issues. Will pass the information to other travelers .

We checked in and checked out 10 mins later after seeing our room. It smelled nauseating, the building was not structurally good, and there were creepy people standing in front of many of the rooms or lurking in the parking lots. It was truly scary. We would not have been able to sleep as we didn’t feel safe. We went to another hotel 30 minutes away and felt much safer!! It was a horrible experience! The pictures on the site were much nicer than reality… I would not have booked it otherwise!!

Staff was very nice. Room smelled of cigarettes, but was clean. It's a cheaper room for a night so I can't be too harsh. They had extra tooth brushes and tooth paste! Old a a bit run down, but again, it's a truck stop right on the highway. My personal experience was it was a sketchy area. A random stranger said some things to me and I made sure to be in my room before dark and not leave. But it's a tiny town right off the highway.

Horror hotel

The room was infested with flies, a massive spider web was helping with that. There was tissue on the sheets. They obviously didnt wash the bedding before making it. Sheets also had 3D debris, like mucous. The bathroom door was warped and wouldnt shut. There was water damage on the ceiling. When we couldnt get a refund they showed us another room. We immediately left after seeing the black mold on the ceiling.

This Inn is a joke, never ever pay 80 dollars/ night for such a bad maintained Inn. It’s a shame that it’s wearing the best value of America name. I’m from Europe and I Do Not recommend to experience this type of American stay. The property smells like urine, the stears are unsafe to walk up on 1st floor, we didn’t get towels in the room and had to walk back to front desk to ask for them. It was the worst accomodation I’ve ever had! And the breakfast that’s a lie, basically doesn’t exist, they put it as an amenity just to charge you more per night!

I arrived about 9pm and left by midnight because it was so unsafe. Parking lot was busy and crowded with people on bikes and lingering. I cannot imagine these people had booked rooms here. When getting my luggage out they sat and watched. When I got into my room, they were looking in the windows of my car. I left so that my truck was not stolen. You get what you pay for!

What was unique was that only one electric outlet in the entire room worked. There was a used dirty towel on the back of the bathroom door, as well, to greet us on arrival. The outlet near the sink was covered with brown cardboard held in place by thumbtacks, I presume, to hide the fact that only one outlet was operating in the room. Mr. Roach greeted my girlfriend when she got up to use the restroom in the middle of the night, as well. The added element of two questionable middle aged men beating on our door offering maid service topped off our stay.

This hotel being where it's at is not how it's presented in the pictures. We get for he hotel and it's back behind a bar and an RV park back. We get to our room and part of the window was broken out. We get in and the AC wasn't on, we set it to 60 and never got below 72 and that took all night to get there. Sheets had stains in them and the blankets or comforters were so thin they could have almost been considered as curtains.

Comfy beds, good service but dirty bathrooms

Easy check in. We booked two rooms. One room OK but no microwave, dirty bathroom. Other room had microwave, broken lamp, no light in the bathroom and again dirty bathroom. It says in the description in hotels.com that breakfast is included but they do not provide breakfast that is something hotels.com has to work with them. Two good things about this hotel ,The front person was very welcoming, provided extra sheets. And second, the beds were very comfy. There was an extra sofabed alongwith the king size bed that means 4 can stay in a room.So if you are staying for good sleep, yes this is a good quiet hotel with confy beds.

Roach Motel!!

When checking in we were told they didn’t have any working room keys but they would let us in with their master key. The smell of cigarette smoke was overwhelming from the outside. Inside our nonsmoking room it smelt of cigarettes probably due to the heavy smokers from the other rooms. The best thing about our room was that the air conditioning worked.
We ended up leaving to book a room at a neighboring hotel after we found two cockroaches in one of the beds.
A true roach motel!!

All of the staff were so very pleasant.. this place suffers from owners not investing in their property properly.
