The property was very nice and the room was clean. But our stay was on a friday night and the road noise was loud till 1am. Would probably stay there again but ask for a room on the backside away from the traffic.

I needed and got a wheelchair accessible shower. Handicap rails really good. So far so good. The towels were on a rack above the toilet. The handheld shower head and flow switch well out of reach. Shampoo etc a high reach from the shower chair. Plastic shower chair was a bit tippy when I transferred back to the chair.

Too Loud, Too sketchy did not feel safe

Extremely loud!!!! In the very close vincinity there are Loud Trucks & Motorcycles going up and down the road. We arrived around 8ish pm. They spent on into the night riding the road. When we arrived in the large parking lot next to street in the parking lot over across from Five Guys Burgers. There in parking lot of Hotel were teens drinking and Loud about 8-10 teens I went to McDonals very close to Hotel about 9:30pm and the trucks and motorcycle riding back and forth was so loud i could barely here while ordering. i asked the girl at window was this a truck motorcycle club she said no it is like this every weekend. Surrounding fast food and restaurants close either 9 or 10pm. cops sitting in cars watching activities. I got back to Hotel. Mc donalds is less than a mile down road. 5 minutes. as i was getting out the group of teens drinking and loud was still there. Heard 3 very distinctive GUN SHOT sounds. I reported it when I got inside. Very close range. later I called office and they said police came and security however they claimed not gun shots and not anyone on property in parking lot. The shots were NOT backfire from trucks!!! The area Very Sketchy. Of course they are Not going to honest about it because of business. I finally fell asleep 3am from all the trucks and motorcycles riding by Hotel. The noise was at least til 3 am.

We had an amazing time and this hotel has the old time charm and will go back if we are in the area again - the only complaint that I have is where our room was facing the main road and the cars were racing up and down all night but that wasn’t the hotels fault I would just ask for a room on the opposite side next time. The lady who was the bartender while there was amazing and just so nice as well as the front desk ladies as well but the bartender left an impression and was just so wonderful Thank you for a great experience
