We arrived late but the staff was very helpful! For the price it was a good stay, but our room was not the as clean as I would have expected. The floor had socks, ear plugs, fingernails, and sunflower seeds visibly left from previous occupants and a film of dust on most of the furniture, however the shower, toilet, sink, and bed were obvious they had been cleaned at least. We stayed with a pet and I appreciated that we were placed close to the grassy area and it was easy to take him in and out. The pool looked to be nice as well but we unfortunately didn’t have time on our stay to enjoy it. Overall I would stay again but was a bit disappointed to find the room the way we had.

It needs cleaned up alot. People leaving beer cans everywhere on the property. FIX THE POOL! coming into it seems shady an creepy at first. . Room was extremely hot ac only cooled it down but didn't get cold at all. Over all one night stay not for more than that.

Overall, our stay was disappointing. While the staff was friendly, several issues throughout our visit took away from the experience.
We reported that the bathtub drain would not close, making it difficult to use the tub as intended. Even after several days, the issue was never repaired or addressed.
The pool also failed to open at its scheduled time, which was frustrating since we had planned part of our day around using it.
The complimentary breakfast was another major disappointment. When a hotel advertises a continental breakfast, we expect at least some hot options or a more substantial selection, such as eggs, bacon, sausage, or similar breakfast items. Instead, the breakfast was the same every morning: small muffins, small donuts, bagels, toast, two types of cereal, yogurt, milk, and a pancake machine that wasn't working one of the days. The muffins and donuts were frequently empty and often were not restocked promptly. The selection was very limited, and we were still hungry after breakfast on multiple mornings.
Unfortunately, the lack of maintenance, inconsistent amenities, and underwhelming breakfast made our stay fall short of expectations. We hope these issues are addressed so future guests have a better experience.

The room smelled bad. The tissue dispenser was empty. There was only a third of a roll of toilet paper available. The bathtub drained extremely slowly causing me to stand in 3-4 inches of water while showering. A dead cockroach and a dead spider floated up from the clogged drain. Half the lights in the room has dead bulbs. The stairs leading to our second floor room were borderline treacherous.

So many things. First the staff was very friendly, and courteous. That is the end of the positive.

The doors while they would lock occasionally if you nudged the bottom doorknob side of the door would open any room. We checked this worked almost every time.
Rooms were disgusting. Non smoking room smelled of cigarettes. Sheets had many holes in them from cigarettes. Towels were white at some point, but clearly had a multitude of colors on them now, AND holes for good fun. Ceiling was white, but many shades of colors from years of smoking. Water pressure sometimes was good, and other times dribbled out.

This hotel is very cheap, but there is a line between cheap and nasty. This place very much crosses it.

Th you g lady working the desk was wonderful. But the first room I was given was … the worst thing I could imagine. The door lock was busted off, the smoke detector was detached and resting on the table with wires protruding from the walls. The bed sheets were covered in various bugs and hairs. There were lines of dust imprinted on the sheets, in the pattern of the mattress topper. I went to please ask for a refund and I would just keep driving down the road. She offered me a different room, assuring me it would be cleaner. It was marginally better. It had a lock and plugged in smoke detector, but not tv remote. The bed at least appeared clean. Still, I couldn’t sleep and ended up leaving at 1am. I felt like things were crawling on me, and I could hear people outside smoking (and smell the smoke in my room).

The room looked ok at first glance. When we pulled the sheets back we could tell they were not changed for our stay. The pillows were yellowed. They had dirt and hair on the sheets. The bathroom floor had a lot of hair on the floor. The pool is closed. The towels were yellowed and then. When we went to the front desk he asked if we wanted to change the sheets. If we wanted to change the sheets? Really? We got a refund and went to another location.

Booked through Expedia, got to the hotel and had to pay a $100 deposit that was NEVER mentioned on Expedia or google. The property had a creepy feeling. Hair was all over in the bathroom including the tub, no hand soap or trash can. Toilet paper crammed into the bathroom wall holes, hairdryer was melted, tissue box and coffee pot were disgusting. Ceiling paint was chipping, Outlets didn't work and neither did the lights by the beds, then I found what looked like a bedbug in the bathroom. We told the front desk guy and he said he will tell Housekeeping. While we were getting our stuff to leave, I contacted Expedia to let them know the conditions and to get a refund, Expedia contacted the hotel and by the time we got downstairs to the office, the guy was coming out to tell us we had to leave immediately and he was extremely rude! He tossed our deposit money at us and walked away without any apologies

I would say, without a doubt that this was the noisiest motel that I ever stayed in. I'm not sure what the girl in 118 was doing, but she was outside all night with assorted people coming and going. She was also smoking in her room. Maybe she's the boss of the hotel, perhaps some poor unfortunate who has to live there on the Ohio taxpayer. Who knows, but someone should teach her some manners.

This place needs some love and attention, not to mention better cleaning. There were trash cans outside of the ice vending area that were overflowing. The ice vending didn't look like somewhere I want to get ice. Our shower floor was absolutely filthy black. It would simply take one scrub of cleanser to remove that. The breakfast was very limited. There were only 4 muffins, a broken juice machine, some cereal, and yogurt (that other guest had opened for whatever reason to inspect....that housekeeping should have caught and tossed). We had an issue with our key and the lady in the room next to us told me it was always an issue for my door. That indicates a hotel where some people are long term residents. I've never had a good experience in those situations. It may explain why people were up all hours of the night making noise. The staff were friendly but overall, I can't recommend this place.

I was very disappointed with the cleanliness of this hotel. The stairs leading up to the rooms were filthy, and once inside, I found the bedspread, sheets (including what appeared to be blood stains), and towels to be dirty. There were also large, clearly visible stains on the chair, which further contributed to the overall sense of uncleanliness. This was absolutely unacceptable.

I reported these issues to the front desk. While they did replace the towels, they informed me that the hotel was fully booked.

Cleanliness is a basic expectation for any hotel stay, and unfortunately, this experience did not meet that standard. I would not recommend this hotel unless significant improvements are made.

Ok in a pinch

Arrived very late (12:30am) but was made to wait in a cold vestibule for checkin (door to lobby was locked I’m assuming to protect the young girl working). Reserved 2 double beds (traveling with my teenage son) but was given a room with a king bed and told no others available. First room key didn’t work at all and had to go back to the front of the building to get a second key to a new room (she tried to accommodate by providing a room with a king and a sleeper sofa). Room was very cold - turned heater on and first smelled like it was burning, then smelled like wet dog. This did dissipate as the night went on. Rooms definitely need some upkeep (holes in walls).
