The stay was okay. It was only for one night. The only problems were the shower was very slippery. It was a new shower pan and I almost fell 3 times. The toilet seat was peeling and stained. That was disappointing since a toilet seat is inexpensive. There was an ironing board leaning on the wall in the bathroom but no iron.

Loud music played in the parking lot until midnight. While I understand it’s not the hotel owners fault necessarily, something could be done. The room smelled strongly of smoke as well.

Do not stay here. Hotel is not clean and the employees, especially the gentleman at the front desk is belligerent and rude. Please please read the reviews. The positive ones HAVE to be from friends and family.

We had a good check in until I had to pay the deposit and my charge card was denied because hotels.com screwed up the expiration date on my card!

No closet to hang clothing,no hair dryer, no Kleenex, no clock, no phone, no coffee pot, no hooks in bathroom to hang a robe/clothes, limited electrical outlets, small bath towels, cushioned chair that look so disgusting we didn't even sit in it. A brand new large bathroom, low step into shower, perfect for a handicap person with a large barn door as the bathroom door. Only stayed 2 nights not 3.

There were late night loud conversations taking place outside our door every night in the middle of the night. People seemed to spill from the bar on the property to make noise nightly. It felt unsafe at all times of the day. We had a reservation for 3 people and every day they would only leave 2 bath towels, never any hand towels and one of us would need to go to the office to get more towels. On more than one occasion doing that the staff argued that we couldn’t have more towels. It was likely the worst motel experience I’ve ever had.
2.0
No heat; telephone did not work. Remote did knot work. No bath towels; they provided hand towels in place. Bed conversation thin(l; no extra blankets. Did not sleep well. Remove from your list of lodging.

Overall would give 3.75 stars.
Had to go to a wedding nearby so only needed a place to sleep. Many hotels around but this one had a good price, food options very close, and a billiards bar attached that was open until 2am. Most important was that check-in is 2pm, rather than the majority of hotels that have a 3pm check-in, as the wedding began at 4pm so had enough time to check-in, change and get to the venue. If you don't want noise, be sure to request a room not by the bar...my Aunt had to change her room due to the noise, but everything else was good. There was no closet in our room so was challenging trying to hang our suit and dress. Only two pillows so we each had to fold in half to get a decent sleep. Make sure to bring your own hair dryer and tissues. Would stay again if another family event brings us to the area.

Finding the office took some effort
Felt and look sketchy driving through there is a restaurant right in front that's nice and has good food.
The beds are hard and uncomfortable
Room looks nice has a sliding door on the bathroom there is no tub just a shower that the curtain touches you when you try to take a shower it is clean
There is a bar a little right outside the door wasn't too bad quite a wise but there was so much light you definitely don't get a dark room to sleep in a conditioner does work if you're going to use the fridge make sure you turn the temperature down because when it set to one it does not keep your food cold for the cost of $108 I probably would not stay here again wasn't worth the money
Convenient to where I was going but that's about it

I wouldn’t recommend anyone staying here. The customer service is awful. The only good thing is the housekeeping staff. They office staff were rude unprofessional and ignorant. I asked for the owner information or corporate and they refused. I’m currently homeless which they were well aware of. I received a phone call from my son stating that he had to pack up all of our belongings and be out while I was at work. Not o e person told me about the rule stating that you can only stay for a certain time and then have to leave for a week.

Very nice I don’t understand the 50 dollar security deposit that they require.But there is some bad people out there but most don’t check in with credit cards like I did. Or at least I wouldn’t think so.

I will never stay there again. Upon arrival in my room there was a smashed roach on the wall. The floor was poorly mopped and the baseboards were filthy. The AC unit barely blew and was nasty and hadn't been cleaned. There was slimey goo inside of it. The microwave was almost completely rusted out inside of it and was not usable. The bed frame was metal and came up to my knees and I'm 5'4 and was to big for bed mattress and I banged my knee several times. And there was baby roaches coming from under the fridge. I left the hotel and went back to my house to stay because of all this.

The bathroom was filthy and the vent in there was falling off the ceiling I mentioned this stuff to the staff she just said ok I will tell them wow is all I thought to myself only thing that seemed cool was they have a bar but I didn't check it out so I can't go past that.

Staff was very nice and helpful. Chair in room was stained, so I didn’t sit on it. Blanket was stained, mattress was very hard. Everything else was clean. Bathroom was clean and in good working order. Bathroom door is a sliding door that does not close all the way and no way to lock. I was traveling alone and did not feel safe because of all the men loitering in the parking lot drinking and playing loud music. I believe these men were guests of the motel. I went to my car to grab something when I was approached by a man asking me for money. I checked out the next day, a day early because I did not feel safe there alone. They did refund me for the early check out which I appreciated. A $50 hold was put on my card when I checked in which didn’t make sense since my room was for paid at booking and there was no mention of this fee.

Unexpected $50 security deposit. Man claimed he wasn't going to charge me for the security deposit after taking my card, then bank showed he did. After the first night in the hotel when we showered found out the shower drain was clogged (only shower without much of a lipped edge, no tub part) and drained very slowly causing water to back up. Switching rooms with a toddler isnt easy and I drove 24 hours for this short trip with her to have to change rooms so we dealt with it. I left my room clean and took out my own trash. They still kept my $50 deposit for a "cleaning fee".

Room was clean, well stocked and all fixtures worked. Road noise from main drag out front was a bit intrusive at times. Toilet worked fine but main fixture was loose at the floor bottom. Service was excellent.
2.0
Suite was limited, it was comfortable - we didn't want to spend anytime in there.
Our suite was the back corner of the building, we were kept awake all three nights of our stay due to early trash/recycling pick up and rowdy guests drinking outside.
Our suite toilet did not work, we called the front desk twice and they sent someone down to repair but the issue kept occurring. The lobby didn't even have a bathroom for us to utilize in the morning when ours wasn't working.
Location was good, close to many restaurants.
Staff was friendly and helpful but the conditions were just too unfortunate for us to stay here again.
