Worst ever stay

Firstly… looks good online but in person needs a lot of upgrades. I kept getting locked out my room because the cheap key cards kept the magnetizing even when it’s not next to anything so I had to go to the office get another one. It happened 5 times within the two day stay. There was MOLD in the refrigerator. I didn’t see at first Until later after food went bad from no electricity annd no air condition. On the second day, the electricity went out so I had no choice, but to pack up check out as soon as possible, and the manager didn’t offer a refund. No basic amenities like an ice machine. Had an old disconnected phone in drawer wit spider webs and dirty Qtips. So I couldn’t even call for service. I purchased it through hotels.com but unfortunately, they couldn’t get an approval from the hotel to give me a refund so I paid for what I got… A unpleasant stay!!!

The rooms are small but very clean. The place was quite which we liked. The price was within range of where you are staying. Didn't care much for the required $50 cash deposit which is returned once they have key back and inspected the room. Be sure to hang your room sign on door for Maid Service or they don't come in the room.

I booked a night at this hotel. Three days prior to the stay my partner and I got sick and had a confirmed case of COVID. I immediately contacted the hotel, and tried to cancel my reservation, but they said my $200 /night stay was non refundable. They said there was nothing they could do. They were more willing to risk exposing their staff to COVID, than refunding my money. This shows me they do not care about the well being and safety of their employees. This was highly disappointing and disturbing. I will never book with this hotel ever again!

The owner literally told me I can’t have no one over or I’ll get charged. I booked for 2 people but I was told at the window I wasn’t allowed to bring anyone over. When I checked out, the owner and his wife raided the room I was in checking if I broke anything or left a mess. He was asking me about the tv control not working. I was like I literally only slept here I didn’t touch anything he threatened to charge me for the remote i didn’t even know where it was at. I felt violated after leaving like I was a prostitute
Never going there again
