If its your only choice, its ok.

Door was not secure, it locked but was not a tight seal BY FAR, which let in ALL the noise from outside. Different room would have been better. Fridge was not plugged in and a bug crawled out when I opened the door, which I promptly killed. No other bugs were seen. In room coffee was ok, bed was comfortable and AC was good.

It was a night with a low of high 30’s, the bed didn’t have a blanket, just a sheet. The filter on the ac/heat unit (yes I check those) was disintegrating, so we didn’t use it. Parking is good, plenty of trailer parking and room was clean. You can hear everyone coming in, and walking all upstairs and down the walkway but that’s not their fault, just a warning if your a light sleeper.

It was easily accessable from the major highway.
I was informed that the property no longer uses Expedia. My rate was increased by $10 and was informed that this was $24 less than the regular rate for this stay.
The rate was the reason that I chose Expedia.

I liked that the hotel was close to my work. I did not like that it was in need of some repair and it needed a deep complete cleaning including the grounds around the motel. My biggest complaint— we booked the reservation online with Expedia and even though we received a confirmation number confirm our reservation, when we arrived at the motel the manager/owner told me that I must have entered the wrong credit card number therefore they had not been paid. They did not hold our reservation. However, the motel was not fully booked so we were able to still have a room but for the full price not the price we were quoted by Expedia!! How do you have a confirmation number and not have a valid credit card entered??? We were scammed! I will not stay there again.

Owner tried to charge us for an extra day when we tried to check in a few hours early, ended up going to the lake to waste time. Hotel looks sketchy on the outside but the rooms are decent, definitely bring your own pillow and blanket as theirs aren’t comfortable and the towels are very used.

When we booked the rooms online we asked for non-smoking. When we checked in, we asked for non-smoking. The first room we walked into was obviously a smoking room. Overall appearance of the facility was run down and dirty. We also did not feel safe. Would not recommend this hotel.

I should've slept in my car, instead.

I obviously made the reservation through Hotels.com; but the clerk struggled to find the reservation. I specifically asked for a ground level floor, and received a message from the hotel confirming the request. The clerk said they didn't have any on the ground floor but had to call to get approval to use one of the rooms they were working on. There was NO lighting in front of the room(110). Although it was a non-smoking room, I could smell smoke when we turned the AC on. There were hairs in the bathtub, hairs on the bathroom floor/along with toilet tissue, and there was a fake nail on the bathroom floor. The bed was just SPRINGS and was the worst sleep, ever. Yes, I took pictures of this. Upon checking out (no breakfast as advertised, by the way), there was NO STAFF in the entire office. I stood in the lobby for 20+ minutes screaming \"hello\" and calling the number. I even recorded myself in the lobby trying to reach someone about this horrible visit. No one showed up.

I want a full refund, as this was an unclean, horrible bed, smoke smelling, and unstaffed hotel.

I have usually had a bad perception of America's Best, but this was not the case. The hotel was clean, and in good quality. The bed was comfy, but my only issue was the sheet for the bed was not a fitted sheet. So it didn't stay on the bed.

I would never recommend this hotel to anyone that is needing to stay in the area. The pool is not working no water but 2 in and it’s green. Crickets are all over the sidewalks and halls leading you to your rooms that no one has cleaned up after. Doos knob to the door was dirty and when we opened the door the room was hot, smelly and dirty with bugs in the floor, on the air unit and a burn marks in the bedding. My husband and I took all our bags back to our truck and asked for a refund. The man in the office did not seem surprised at all. He is aware that this hotel is a mess. Save your time and money. It’s not worth the bed bugs that I’m sure is as well living in this structure. If they can’t clean up after all the bugs your walking on then you know their not removing the headboards and treating them for Bed bugs!

Mediocre at best.

I was disappointed in the beds comfort, it felt like sleeping on the floor, literally!
The room was clean for the most part. The headboard was really dusty. There looked to be poop on the wall by the bed. The duvet was stained and the sheet on the bed was a flat sheet. Wierd! The coffee maker did not work, just leaked water all over the counter. There were no plugs avialable for anything near the bed. The refrigerator was really loud while sleeping. There was no bag for dirty clothes that I am used to. There was a blanket for the bed on a shelf but it looked half folded at best. The pillows were awful. They felt like cheap pillows from Walmart. The pool was half full of stagnant water right outside of our room. I would not recommend this hotel to others. The price was what was expected.
