Arrived early. Was able to get into the room early with just a minimal fee. Not too far from where we needed to go. Broom was nice and clean air conditioning. Love the fact that they had a wood floor so many places don't do that anymore.

Free parking it's pretty much the only perk. Room was dirty, especially the floors had lots of dust. The bed covers were old and had holes. Parking is free but limited. Utilities were also so old and dirty. Hotels has motels vibes :(

My stay here has been wonderful. While I was here, the hotel upgraded my room with a new bed and furniture, which made me feel like royalty. I also want to give special recognition to one of the housekeepers, an older Hispanic lady whose name I unfortunately can’t recall. She was incredibly kind, personable, and thorough—she made my stay feel comfortable and cared for. The combination of great service and the effort the hotel puts into making guests feel valued really stood out to me. Thanks!
