Hotel was ok.
The hotel didnt look too nice from the outside or in the hallway. Front desk service was quick and friendly. Our room was clean and decent. Bathroom was nice and clean but very small. Area looked questionable but the hotel was very quiet and we didnt have any problems.

Eagerness Of the staff to please in a basic situation scoring great. But the rooms especially the bathroom in so tiny and poorly painted tub and shower cracking and lots hair left in the bathroom bought a housekeeper came and did come clean that room in the floor and I chipped her. She was doing well, but I couldn’t even see inside the tub at that point in time just the same things have been clean, but it was actually the third room we had attempted to stay in two others were at another motel and we left because of the same reasons starting to and I felt that your tub might be safe even though it looks horrible and lots of dirt in the corners but it ended up being at least 6 inches of water while I’m trying to shower and feeling like the tub is really not that clean to begin with and standing water? My husband won’t shower it took so long to drain out and we were afraid of the germs and I clean some of the poop off the wall because it was so nasty to have to look at that and it was so obvious and then realize later there was some of the other places up under the wall cabinet area that had poop. I don’t know how long it had actually been there, but I can’t imagine that somebody wouldn’t have complained about the amount of poop on the shower curtain? I’m just so frustrated that things were not how they seemed when when we first came in the door and then the elevator was broke, and I am handicap with COPD And unable to walk distances.

Close to the highway. Quiet at night. Good breakfast in the morning. Worked for a nice place to sleep while traveling. The room was clean, the hallways looked pretty good, but the elevator was dirty and the parking lot was a mess. We looked for a trash can by the door, but none in sight. That might help with the parking lot mess.

The breakfast was terrible. The lady serving breakfast was rude and told us to go to the front desk if we weren’t satisfied. There was no orange juice, the pancake machine was not working and there was no coffee. What a morning to start a vacation day.

This hotel has nice rooms. Except you’ll fine problems hidden in them. From broken tile to leftover nails from the previous guest. They also only have housekeeping visit 1-2 times a week. I was there for a week and only got visited once. It’s a mix of good and bad for this hotel.
