Quiet for the most part on a Monday night. 😴🌃😊 It was very convenient for me, being right off the highway and under 10 minutes to downtown. 🚗💨👍 I was glad to use the laundry amenities 🔥. They even have soap and other amenities you may need at the front desk for a small fee. 🔥 Hot coffee 24/7 🔥....👉 No breakfast though 👎

Would not go back

The whole place smells like weed and cigarettes. Walls are thin so you can hear everyone around you. People at the front desk seemed annoyed that they had to actually come to the desk to check me in. There was a burned cigarette in the peep hole of the room door. Pictures arent really the nicest but it was cheap so i wasnt expecting much to begin with but but pics are still 1000 times nicer/cleaner than what it really is in person

The service at the desk was great ! Very friendly and nice. The room was okay. The room didn’t seem to get cleaned the best, stains on floor, furniture was old. There was clearly people living there so there was a lot of late night noises and kids running everywhere. Was okay for a night .

Several issues 1. One of the rooms had stuff on the walls that was gross. The hotel reaked of smoke throughout 3. One of our friends who has health issues could not stay in the hotel. When asked for a refund he was told there were not any!! Unless you are a smoker I would not recommend this Inn

No luggage rack, no coffee maker, small TV, only one trash can, bathroom door would not close. Very questionable area as far as safety and security.

This property should not be in your list of hotels. It is a 1/2 way house. The building has chain smokers and ash trays in the room but the building says non smoking. Carpet ripped in many places. Bed dirty many paint holes in the walls Took hours before the smoke smell left us. Wouldn’t stay there if you paid me. Front desk has thick plastic partition like banks have with a pass through window. Didn’t feel safe at any point

Okay, but left a lot of room for improvement

Room was comfortable enough, but rooms were pretty dated and the carpet was lightly sticky.

Overpriced and disgusting

This was probably the dirtiest room I’ve ever been in. Didn’t look like they cleaned the bathroom in like 30 visits. Left 0 toilet paper. reeks of cigarettes and weed.
