Parking was good. Seemed to be secure. Heard a few pets during our stay, which was a wonderful sound reminding us of home. However, we reserved a smoking room and no ashtray. My husband had one in his truck that we used. Every towel and bed sheet had stains.

This property is in need of maintenance and updating. We booked it because it was dog friendly. The room was ok for an overnight stay traveling and the price but have seen cleaner. Hair dryer was broke and water faucets didn’t work well. Ice machine didn’t look great so didn’t bother trying to use it. The grounds was littered with a lot of trash. Obvious no one picked up after their pet because there was feces everywhere. Location was good as it’s right beside a fantastic Mexican restaurant and was able to walk to Starbucks in the morning.

The staff was very kind. I was in town due to a illness in my family. I had to stay an extra night.
The first night my air was not cooling properly so they moved me to another room so i would be comfortable. I really appreciated the effoirt they put in t making sure i was comfortable for the evening. I will stay here again.

Room smelled so strongly of smoke I wasn’t sure we could stay. Found bugs, both alive and dead. Holes in the walls, floor (all tile) is so sticky I won’t let my kids walk around in their socks. The pull out couch is barely a couch - it’s a loveseat that has seen much better days. It’s stained and the armrest is unstable. The roll up blinds are taped together, the kitchen is filthy. The refrigerator - while rusted inside and smelling of smoke - cools well and the freezer is good and cold. The shower works. Everything just feels dirty and uncared for. I’m disappointed in the room, considering it wasn’t the cheapest ever, but the guy at the front desk was super friendly and helpful when we checked in. He mentioned we got a great deal on the room - perhaps, but for $100 I would like to think the room at least didn’t have bugs or holes in the walls

The front desk associate Tim was very helpful and professional. However this property needs a serious renovation. There was dirt on the walls and stains on the bed. I woke up with weird bites on my right arm. Housekeeping tried to enter my room 30 minutes before check out even though they could see me thru the window. The shower was good though and hot. Overall I would not stay again.

You can hear the noise from the neighbors and everything around you. Lack of cleanliness and maintenance. The breakfast they advertise is only coffee from a machine. The staff is very kind and friendly.

Property was very outdated. There was no continental breakfast due to renovations we were told. The couch and foot stool were very dirty the furniture looked like it came from a yard sale. The sink was cracked and indented. For the price and just staying to sleep halfway to our destination it surficed. Staff at desk was very friendly. Overall you get what you pay for and pictures can be decieving.

Peaceful stay while waiting for my boyfriend to get in on a good position at his new job.. This room was at low cost with hotels com thank gods because we were waiting on employment at a new job and was using our savings. We were surprised to find this location felt more like being at home than in a hotel.. the staff came by quickly and we're very efficient.. I had a very secluded building with a lovely view of newly planted trees that opened up the back area to some beautiful woods that made us feel as if we were alone and had a peaceful stay..

Tim is a gift. He is funny, helpful and has great customer service skills.
The only thing I would change is that there is a lot of furniture, etc set next to the dumpster.

I would recommend this place to budget conciense people. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was squeaky clean. Bed was average. No coffee maker in the room but free coffee in lobby. A little dated from the outside but no complaints for the money.

Terrible stay!
This was the worst hotel stay ever if I could of found another unbooked hotel I would have. The rooms are terrible, burn wholes in bed spread and chair. Non smoking rooms that reaked of smoke and beds that were not queen as advertised. No free breakfast as advertised!
