The rooms were clean. However, the grounds were always in need of cleaning. There was a lot of cigarette smoke I had to walk through at times to get to my room. The elevator worked just fine. For the price and I would definitely stay again.

Awful…

Horrible experience. Due to no refund policy, I had to use my own cleaning supplies and air fresheners to be tolerable. Bad smell, poor maintenance, toilet not secure, and laminate floor peeling up. My cleaning didn’t help much though. Even the cheap cost was too much for how bad the experience was.

Worst Hotel Ever

This place reeked of cigarettes and was incredibly uncomfortable. Imagine staying at a prison. I told them I had asthma and that I needed an early departure, and they refused to give me a refund even though I couldn't stay in that room for more than one hour.

The lady at the front desk with the red hair was nice. That’s about it. multiple people live at this hotel. A bunch of sketchy people were roaming around the parking lot. Got to my room, it smelled like cat pee and cigarettes. The lights didn’t work in the room. The bathroom was dirty and covered in burn marks. I left and went to a hotel up the street. Spend the extra money and do that. I did not feel safe there. I was also told the owner “doesn’t do refunds”. I can imagine why, they wouldn’t make any money.

Hotel was older than what it appeared online. Decent for the price but not a good impression to see staff arguing with a customer upon arrival. No dishes offered to use either.

Bait and Seitch

It was bait and switch. The pictures did not match the place at all. Several residents/guests standing outside their rooms begging anyone who drives up for money. The cabinets in the kitchenette were falling apart, molding, and just in overall poor conditions.
