It's an old motel wich was painted on the outside for the looks. Lobby was redone but all the rest should have been changed. It looks awfull. I have been in much nicer Econo lodge.

The property is run down. There is an 8ft wide pot hole as you enter. The bed was not comfortable. The pool has stopped up liner so that is not in use. I saw the police come to the property 3 different times in one night. Thought I would give it a try but won’t be back
The stay was nice - we were moved from one leaky room to another, but wasnt really upset about it....didn't really blame the staff. I have no real complaints - good tv package, normal clean rooms, good showers, and was quiet. Only thing i would say is not enough pillows in the room but that's it.
This place is a great stay! Clean rooms besides a pinkish stain on one of the blankets, but didnt come off as dirty just random. Full directv and great quality picture. Good microwave and fridge. The staff is kind and they give you your privacy. There is a lot of food choices nearby. Overall, just a nice experience.
Pool was closed, vending machien was completly empty, gym was not 24 hours like advertised and got eaten up by something. Also on our second night there we got woken up by a crash in our room. And found that the headboard on the wall behind our heads had fallen down. Luckly it just slid down in between the bed and the wall.

Overall good stay
My stay was for business purposes. I arrived late at night and left early. The room was clean and comfortable. Albeit the hotel was obviously an older one, the room was clean and everything worked fine. Both front desk clerks with whom I had interactions, were friendly and professional. I do have to say that, even though I arrived too late to use the pool, it was not only out of service, but also served as a large frog pond.
It was quite pleasant and peaceful
I was offered non smoking room, staff were also friendly and helpful when i called them, i saw some rating mentioned about their rooms
condition but my room was great in terms of stay , what else you expect from two star hotel
