The sheets were stained and had cigarette burns. We left almost immediately and they charged us twice for the "night" and told us it was our problem and to take the dispute to our bank.

Location was decent to where we wanted to be. The room was outdated. And didn't look at all like the pictures.
The bed skirt had stains. The beds were uncomfortable. And the room stank.

I booked online. I didn’t realize that it was an outside entry motel and not an inside entry hotel. I prefer the inside entry. The coffee and breakfast was very disappointing. I would choose another place to stay unless you like the above information.

The property was nice cleanliness, good we had a little issue with plumbing in our room. They did not hesitate to move us with no problems. Great experience, wonderful location not too far from a lot of family activities and restaurants. I would definitely stay again reasonable priced.

My daughter and I were very disappointed. The floors needed cleaned, the air was off so it was hot in the room, (it did cool off nicely by the next day) the sheets and bedding was stained, the decorative pillows were dirty with different types of stains, the wash clothes were stained up - I did ask for different bedding and towels and felt like at least they came from a “clean closet” in the office. We had to change everything though/ maybe that’s normal though. The woman at the desk was less than friendly but the man was pleasant. The breakfast really was nonexistent and the office/space it is held in feels dingy and dirty. The outside space was pretty gross and it is very loud inside the room from outside noise. The pool looked nice but we didn’t spend any time there in order to swim because the hotel was so uncomfortable. I know this is silly but we were on the second floor with no elevator. Ice machine was working but missing a piece so it was loud and the ice came out crazy. I guess you get what you pay for but the pictures on the listing 100% don’t match the hotel in real life. Sadly. I did add one pic of the worst bed, we ended up sleeping in the other bed together as it was the least dirty/stained. I’m sad to leave a negative review but I should have read more before I stayed.

Friendly and easy check in. Large room. Comfortable bed. Great for a place to sleep for the night. Reasonably priced.

Dirty and not professional at all they didn’t have a room when we got there. Also kept bugging us about the pet fee when we have service dogs, which is illegal.

The deadbolt on our door was not lined up properly so it did not come close to locking. The AC was loud and would not stay cold. The entire system was outdated with no temperature setting at all. The ice bucket had black grime in it and the coffee pot was missing parts so it was impossible to make a cup of coffee. Overall it was doable for our one night but I will definitely not stay there again. When I shared the concerns with the front desk staff at checkout they did not seem to care too much because they didnt write anything down to convey to the staff.
