First room was a king room that we had to transfer from due to the heavy smell of smoking and once in the second room we found the mini fridge didn’t work, both live and dead roaches in the room, the bath towels look like they had not been washed in months and the bed covers had a smell.

Neve again

Both rooms weren't ready when we arrived (4:45pm). The one room was barely ready with the housekeeping man still sweeping the floor and a quick spray of something. We waited in the one room for an hour for the other to be available and it never was before we left approximately at 6:00pm. The one we were waiting in 3 of the 4 lamps, the tv and a/c didn't work. Went to the front desk to let them know and all they told me was that they were full and that they could refund our money which we had paid in cash. I had also called at 9:00 that morning and told a lady that we were paying cash and not to run the card and they assured me that that would not happen but it did at 2:13pm.We waited until 6:00 for the other room to be ready and it wasn't. So we got a refund and went across the street and got two rooms. We have never had any issues with this hotel because we stayed there frequently twice a year, never again. The hotel across the street said they already had eight or nine people coming from this particular location in the last 2 days to get rooms over there.

The property was so rude to me, and overcharged me when I was told that I was getting a certain amount off. I needed an emergency hotel and I will never stay there again. My room was dirty, there was a dirty cleaning towel in my room, the bed sheets clearly hadn’t been washed, the towels smelled like body Oder, and there was what looked like mold in my room. Very unhappy.

Was a nice hotel for the price. It was beside the road which was convenient but kind of loud but the hotel was comfortable and clean and budget friendly. I enjoyed the property and will be back. Its also not so busy so you domt have to deal with a whole lot of people which is a huge perk!

Good spot for a crime, I suppose.

Filth. Gaping holes. Malfunctioning electronics, ie, cable on the fritz and fridge good and warm. Also, a parade of bugs of some sort. All in all, we turned the keys in and left within 30 minutes, to take our chances at a rest stop. Oh yeah, there was a suspicious dude meandering about in the parking lot, looking at our room and us as we were leaving it. I can't dis-recommend this place enough. Arson would improve it probably.

YUCK! YUCK! YUCK!!! RUN AWAY QUICKLY.
Roaches scattered on the walls and floor when we arrived in the room. The smell of the room was horrendous. The air conditioner blew hot air and smelled moldy. Coverlets on the beds were dirty and had cigarette burns in them even though it was a no smoking room. Yuck. I slept in my clothes because the sheets looked dirty. The mini fridge made a crazy buzzing noise all night until I finally had enough and got up to unplug it. The owners must have pawned all the matching furniture because all the furniture was mismatched and broken. YUCK!!!

This place is over priced. As soon as I walked in the room I had to kill a couple of roaches. The ac was not working properly very loud. The ceiling in the bathroom was falling apart and you can see that whoever tried to do some of the repairs needs a lot of training. All of the towels were yellow/brownin color. The comforter was all torn apart as well.

There were dead bugs everywhere. They did not clean the room at all just made the bed. Our room was infested with flies. The manager would not speak to us and lied and said he wasn’t the manager. They would not change our room or offer any solution. Spent almost 300 and spent zero time in the room because of how disgusting it was. Expedia didn’t solve the issue either so do not book with Expedia or with this hotel. Expedia also uncharged the room.

When brought to the attention of the front desk she literally told us “this is crackworth not acworth what did we expect” what do we expect?? A clean room with no blood. Asked for a different room and was told no! Avoid at all cost!!!

This room cost $79 a night, i couldn't even stay there it was so disgusting andcwhen i checked out a few hours after checking in the lady said so not nicely you won't get a refund. The comforter had cigarette burn holes in it, the bathroom ceiling vent and light fixtures were hang from the ceiling the tub had all kinds of mold in it andcthe paint was peeling off the walls. Im mot a smoker and the fact i got a somkers room even though i booked a non smoking room was disgusting. They should be ashamed of there hotel and when i asked who the manager was, the lady wouldn't give me a name and said it was a franchise so what was i going to do about it.

Staff was very hard to understand and not friendly. We got to our room and it was absolutely deplorable. There were burn holes in the sheets, it stunk, the TV remote was sticky and gross, there were holes in the walls, half of the lights/lamps did not work and had holes in the covers, the bathroom was the worst; the door was falling apart, the toilet had old pee on it paint was peeling off, we tried to take a shower but the water was either freezing or boiling hot with no happy medium. Immediately upon arrival I was very angry with the fact that I paid $84 or so dollars to stay here. The bill they gave me also did not match the amount I paid online. If I could get a refund I would.

Keep Looking

The pricing thru this app verses paying at the office isnt consistent. Some times its cheaper to pay on site. Other times the price is exactly that same as what is reflected thru the hotels app. I was told to pay n office and it would be cheaper, found that to be an Untrue statement. The hotel being subpar. Not enough towels, and having to repeatedly request toilet paper. Our hotel has a damaged door and broken stuff when we first arrived. We had to buy our own toilet paper! Its good for what it is.. a cheap stay for a short time..

Some Disappointment But Overall Good Experience

When I checked in it was abit confusing when my card wouldnt go thru and had to be ran more than once. The house keeping isnt on a set time. Theyve came at 9 but also around 11 before. You have to wAit for them to bring back clean towels and sheets. I was told they had to wash them first, I guess they dont have extras. The bathroom door was broke when we arrived. We also noticed cockroaches the morning after check in, and the remote didnt work. night check in lady is very abrasive and almost dismissive, but the daytime lady is super nice and accommodating!

Dont try to check in after midnight, because i was informed they dont do paperwork til 5am so id have to wait or come back if i wanted an extra room for the night. Their extra deposits for the room or pet fees arent fully explained. Oh Yeah, and they havent had a continental breakfast for years. So that being listed on amenities is false.

Overall though it was oKayyy. Id stay here again just for the low prices and the day time check in lady is a sweetheart. The location is good and there are plenty of things to do around the area. Food options are awesome.

We checked out that friday after checking early on thursday stayed at a Marriot with my parents until our flight out on monday we where in town for a wedding very unsafe was the main issue. Should of at least capped off the open wire when we reported it in the morning when i came back it still was not done covid or no covid they also have a sign up that there not responsable for any injuries or deaths due to covid im glad nothing happened but thats not safe and they dont care about there guess mine opinion dont stay there very unsafe.
