Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Perfectly acceptable for overnight stay, i.e., clean and comfortable. Bathroom clean but a little outdated. Would stay again for an overnighter.

This a passable property, but the best part of staying there is having access to an excellent Mexican restaurant just across the parking lot. Their flan is to die for and the rest of the menu is very good. We're from Tucson, known to be a center of excellent Mexican dining, and we wish this place was in our neighborhood! Be sure you check out the Blue Margaritas for excellent dining in Oglesby!
I had to come back to the desk 3 times with a key card that didn't work. Front desk clerk tried to recode same card twice. After I bent the card in half (and gave it back to him), he got a new card and it worked.
Swimming pool had an underwater light fixture that was sitting out on the pool deck with the wires cable going underwater and back to the hole that the light came out of. SAFETY ISSUE !!!
In town for event. Comfortable stay. Beds very comfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Everything in our room was dirty , lamp didn’t work , phone didn’t work and there was green mold growing on our curtains . There was a hard old sandwich behind my dresser I informed 2 different ppl that work there ,
requested a non smoking room, you could tell people have smoked in the room before. ac would not turn off so it was very loud through the night. bathroom was covered in mold and water damage. sheets on the bed felt very dirty and not clean.
Clean and comfortable for what we needed. The room smelled clean but my only complaint is there was a hint of what smelled like cigarettes smoke undertones. But was only noticable when entering the room. We are not smokers so we are sensitive to the smell. Otherwise it was clean and quiet
The hotel was clean but dark and out dated. It was comfortable and a good place to stop if you are traveling with a dog.

Okay, but not the best.
I slept through the noise, but my wife didn't. A racket like a fight was going on upstairs. It happened again about a half hour before we checked out the next day. My wife voiced her complaint as we were checking out.
The mattress was ready to be replaced, but it was okay to sleep on. Had to knock it down a bit for the issues. We had stayed here a few years back in it was better then.
The property was clean the pool was open and clean. the breakfast was great! I should mention that they have a full breakfast service that means eggs breakfast meat cereal oatmeal waffles juice milk toast yogurt and breakfast sandwiches .recently since I've stayed at other hotels they say breakfast it usually is just like a yogurt or something and then I end up leaving hungry and still having to go out to me I would rather eat breakfast at my hotel and get on with my day.
The staff was very courteous and efficient there were only two issues that arose for me one was in the middle of the night another guest at the property started smoking it flooded my room and I mean it was like 2:00 in the morning I had a baby sleeping so I didn't want to move rooms and even if I did I believe the hotel was completely full my husband told the staff member and he offered a fan for us and he even had face masks which I requested so I was thankful for that it's so unfortunate that people break rules.
My room was pretty clean except for the carpet really needed a shampoo my daughter ran Barefoot for a few minutes after I gave her a bath in the bottom of her feet were very dark after being on the carpet I would stay at this hotel again if I was in the area because the staff is courteous and efficient it is clean and the breakfast is well worth it.
If you're in the area don't forget to go to the root beer stand it's amazing!!
