    We usually stay in the romantic room. I love the jacuzzi tub. The bed we always get a great sleep in. It would be nice if there was at least a movable clothes rack to hang your clothes on and a table to set and eat at. Just in case you want to have a romantic dinner.

    If you’re just looking for a cheap place to sleep for a few hours, this might work. But expect thin bedding, limited TV options, and a dated atmosphere. Our “non-smoking” room smelled like weed. The place could definitely use some TLC , working TVs, better bedding, and more effort to remove odors would go a long way.

    The staff was kind and helpful. It was obvious some updates have been made to the property, so they’re heading in the right direction. However, there were other items that needed attention: e.g. our air conditioner was missing knobs and the window latch was broken. Also, the room had not been cleaned thoroughly. We found a number of items from previous guests.

    Says property welcomes children, it does not explain that they are only welcome in certain rooms. In the room they claim they are not welcome is because there is a hot tub, again the sinage they have posted only says to not leave children unattended, not they are not allowed. We stayed 2 nights of a 4 night booking until we were informed we needed to leave because of having a child with us. I'm not sure how they didn't see the child with us considering the door is directly in front of check in desk and I was talking to my son as we were bringing our stuff inside. When I booked with expedia, I searched for 2 adults and 1 child and your hotel came up. I believe it is a false advertisement to say your hotel is child friendly without explaining that certain rooms do not allow children. The first 2 nights were great, room was clean and had everything we wanted but because of the huge inconvenience your no child policy in a child friendly hotel, this left us with having to scramble and settle for something we did not want because you could not accommodate us with what we needed in another room, we had to find stay elsewhere. I've sent corporate an email explaining what happened and may report to BBB about the way you or Expedia advertises your site/booking pages. You need to explain clearly that not your entire hotel welcomes children.

    Literally our bed was covered in stains and then when we asked for replacements, the guy came in and inspected it in front of us and said ohhh the stains are from him “bleaching it to get BLOOD stains out.” BLOOD STAINS. And then he gave us other sheets and they were stained and nasty as well. Front desk lady was kind and cordial. But place was completely gross in the room, especially the sheets.

    We picked this property because of the price, but it’s a you got what you paid for. We weren’t there much so it wasn’t too big of a deal. The water pressure is awful but it was hot! There were pubic/beard hairS in the one bed so we used the other. The towels were SMALL!! Bring your own soap & shampoo because theirs is minimal.

    Staff wasn't very helpful. My niece and nehpews came to visit (not stay the night). The front desk agent said they need to leave the room or she was going to call the police. There was 0 disturbance, 0 noise complaints and again they were being picked up shortly and not staying the night. Also reeked of smoke even though we were supposedly in a non smoking room.

    I liked this hotel. It was simple, basic, quiet, clean and most importantly I felt safe. I stayed here alone and felt very comfortable. That's about all I need in a hotel room. The bed and pillows were comfortable, the bathroom was clean, the room was clean and didn't smell which is very important. I forgot my cleaning wipes and asked the front desk if they had anything I could use, she gave me some cleaning spray and a cloth. The only thing I would complain about is the size of the towels, they are really small and thin, a little rough.

    Unfortunately, I had a family emergency and had to leave early around noon. I notified the front desk around 1pm and asked for a refund for the following night's stay, since I wouldn't be there. They said they'd call me back right away with an answer. Of course, they never called me. I've been emailing them as well with no reply. So I wasted over $100. I'll never stay here again.

    Non-smoking room on a non-smoking floor stinks like smoke. Outdated everything. Stains on furniture and carpets. Lobby is covered with protective glass that gives a bad neighborhood vibe. Yellow bath, paint falls off from ceiling in bathroom. Sorry, but it is on a level of a motel. I do not understand how it got 7.8 reviews... This hotel should be around $50 per day in 2024.

    Cons: Facility reeked of smoke, but my room was OK Chain on the door was missing. For a single female traveler this is important. Bath towels tiny and thin, I had to use two. Internet not working and cell signal not getting through, I think due to the cement blocks the hotel is built out off. No blanket, just a sheet. I do not recommend.

    I will start off by saying the Staff was good. Helpful and nice. But first thing to greet me when I walked in was a over whelming smell of Marijuana. The room was meh the mattresses were Hard the pillows were thin and tiny and the shower walls had hair all over them, looked like a Yeti showered before me. Location was on a main road so anything you needed was close by.

    I didn’t appreciate being called 30mins prior to check out. I paid my money to stay until check out (11am) and felt harassed about it. I can understand if I was there post checkout time but that was not the case. If I paid for my time I don’t expect to be bothered by the staff during my allotted time. When explaining this to the staff they got very defensive about me criticizing the situation and really didn’t care about how it looks from a guest point of view. Their attitude was just as cheap as the room prices and amenities. I guess you get what you pay for.

I had to wait for her to finish smoking to come and check me in. The manager, Mistry, does not care. Will not give a refund. We had to stay in the filthy room because we were traveling through town and it was 11pm at night. You are better off sleeping in your car.
