The parking lot is full of pot holes, be careful or you will need new rims. The mattress was so old the springs are felt through. Room was clean and neat. The stray dog crying all night near my door, kept me up all night. Good location

I had to hunt the desk personal down which took about 30 minutes. Then as a was asked to retrieve a document from my truck, which was right out front, I was put to the back of the line and waited another 20 minutes before I could check in. The room appeared to be clean but after turning off the lights and waking to go to the bathroom, roaches were seen in my backpack, around the bathroom and the sink area. No one could be found to check out with. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL workers.

It was stated on hotels.com to pay at the property. When we paid it was a $40 difference. Spoke to the owner he said that covers his 15% he has to pay hotels.com. Then they charged our card 3x’s. They did reverse the charges 2 days later when we brought it to their attention. These people are scammers ! Beware

A lot of appliances needs replacing, spiders is an issue, room service needs better job. Bed covers need replacing, A/C doesn’t not adjust to temperature set, pavement in park lot has pot holes all over. Room key had to be reset every other day, homeless walking around outside.

This place should be condemned. Exposed electrical wires, ceiling falling in, one outlet held up with duct tape, smoke detector secured by duct tape. The parking lot looked as if it were mortared. This hotel should not be on Hotels.com. I wish I could get my money back.

Absolutely garbage, I contemplated sleeping in my truck. The room was nasty, unclean, broke fixtures… worst overpriced room I’ve stayed at in the last 20 years. This one took the cake.
