First, I came a little early and the agent at the desk said I could not check now and had a horrible attitude and would not let my friend use a bathroom there. It was supposed to be pet friendly which I saw on line before I booked it. She said there was a charge for pets. I checked other places around there and they had no charges for pets. I didn’t want to stay there but agent said I had to call Expedia . So I call and agent tried to get me out the motel but motel was refusing to do that. But, agent got us out of second night with talking to the management but I left there with broken heart. I was looking for a couple of days of fun but it didn’t happen. Your agent was was wonderful but the motel ruined my time there. Thanks.

I’ve stayed there before and like it but this time no. The beds were really weird. They were very high up and when you moved around you could hear springs pop. It’s was extremely noisy too. It sounded like there was a herd of cattle that came in at 11pm and we could hear everything. Bathroom included.

Worst experience
I payed for a 2 night stay,They closed the lobby an hour an a half early according to the hotels.com an I called them to let them know I was going to be late the guy was rude to my wife an hung up on her, I called back he told me he would leave the key in the safety deposit box he did but when I got to my room the key was never activated and they never gave me a number to call for help or even answer the phone number listed, so I had to get another room at a different hotel for the night went back in the morning they same guy was workin an was still rude to me I asked him to refund me for one of the nights he said it was non refundable which is ridiculous bad experience all together I’d stay somewhere else

Inside the room was basic but reasonable. Simple and clean. It’s the outside of the buildings, the walkways, the middle lawn that could really use a little love. I didn’t regret booking this place for the price. I knew it was a two-star, even if well rated, but I probably would look to stay a bit nicer of a place next time.

The property is under new management, which has improved many aspects. However, the new male manager/desk clerk has a terrible attitude and was very rude to me when I reported a maintenance issue. I went to the office and rang the bell at 6:00 a.m. He scolded me, saying that sometimes he needs to sleep and that I shouldn't have rung the bell unless it was an emergency. A clogged toilet with a family of 6 I think merits as such.
