My room was clean, quiet and very comfortable. I could not find vending, but otherwise was very satisfied.

The hotel and room were okay. Breakfast was not much and the room where guests were to eat was dark.
There was a television in the dining area. How about turning it on to a news station?! In addition, the desk attendent was not very pleasant.
My rating would be "fair."
Room was unclean dead bug by bed stand on floor, hair on night stand and tub, the bed wows horribly uncomfortable. The a/c unit was so loud it would wake you up everytime it kicked on. And the nastiest thing was that the bed cover, which I guess is for looks only was dirty! Had obvious signs of being unwashed. Very disappointed especially for the price.
Rooms are refreshed, beds comfortable. If you like coffee bring your own. Even if you thing driving down the road to get it BRING YOUR OWN. Well unless you like light brown water. LOL
Very clean and quiet rooms. Bed was firm which I like. Nice for not being part of a national chain

Liked: Cleanliness
When we arrived to check in, the lobby door was locked. The owner showed up quickly, but it was still jarring to have to call for assistance—never had to do that before. Room was clean but towels and washcloths were dingy looking. Bed was very comfortable. Property looked somewhat rundown.
I am traveling alone so greatly appreciated that my room number wasn't shouted across the lobby when presented with my room key. I was given an upstairs room without asking. The room was large enough to be comfortable. The fridge n microwave were appreciated. The room has been freshly upgraded with paint, flooring, furniture, mattresses and bedding. Everything looks and smells fresh.
The room was nice. No carpet means no germs or grit on the floor. Room was clean. The continental breakfast was terrible. That was the only downside of the hotel. So if you want breakfast, go elsewhere or if they get a new cook.
