Location is good, easy access to interstate, shopping, and food. Cleanliness was not that great, with dead crickets in the bathroom and hallways filthy. Otherwise no problems.

Our pickup truck was broken into, I didn’t read the reviews before booking apparently it happens regularly. DO NOT TRUST this property as it seemed safe to us with the extra cameras in the parking lot. If this happens regularly you would think they would hire a security guard to patrol the parking, at the least through out the night. The room vents had mold and dirt all around them. Never again will I stay at this property.

This hotel is good for short periods. The rooms were good but small, especially for more than one person. For some reason, there is not enough lights in the room, but there are reading lights on the beds. Breakfast is available for a surcharge, but it's plentiful and really good. The staff are also very helpful, nice, friendly and professional. So, overall a good place to stay. I would recommend it.

The hotel overall seemed in dire need of repair. Broken tiles on restroom floor. Carpet in halls extremely stained. Remote for TV not functioning well. Tissue box looked old. No hand soap... front staff was accommodating for condition of hotel. Hotel building needs some maintenance and attention.

Location isn't great
The property was located in an area that has a lot of homeless nearby, it was concerning. The pool was really not well taken care of, paint peeling, dirty and not at all inviting. The room itself was clean but several items were broken or missing. There was a plate missing on the wall with exposed wires and some of the light switches on the bedside reading lamps were missing. Overall the room was fine but I do not recommend the area for women/children.

Do Not Stay Here
I would not stay here again. It’s right next door to a very busy WalMart. I recommend asking for a copy of their incident reports for the last 12 months before staying here. Although we strategically parked by the entrance of the parking lot in the direction of the cameras our truck was broken into. We paid extra for a nicer hotel due to safety and security reasons. Staying at this hotel cost us a nightly room rate, the cost of a new window with a full day wasted repairing the window. After speaking to the General Manager he offered a discount on our next stay at their hotel.
