This hotel missed a few refresh cycles. Looks and feels run-down and dirty.
Alec, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I have stayed in a lot worse. The room was clean. The refrigerator worked even though it was wobbly the microwave worked good. Over all we would stay there again. The service was very good. It is an older building so you get what you pay for., it is close to the airport so yes jets fly over low all night long.the parking lot was clean and i didn't see anyone loitering around.

8/10 Very good

It worked for us, but stay strapped

Hotel is a bit run down, but has good bones. Got granite countertops and an electric stove. Area of town is super sketchy. Directly off the highway, but not loud in the room. Good stay
Kyle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful staff, very helpful and welcoming

The staff was very helpful, the front desk made our family feel welcome and even joked with the kids (10&11). Breakfast was a good variety and had healthy vegan options as well. Everything was presented up front and there were no surprises. Quiet even though right by the highway, you could not hear outside until it rained.

2/10 Poor

Upon checking in the guy at the front desk was very nice. He did inform me that the hot water was bit working, but should be I’m working order the next day, I agreed to stay only because I had booked my room through hote Bmnkkb f

4/10 Fair

Bathroom was gross. Took a video of a bug in the bathtub. No chairs at the business work station in the room. Would have left if it hadn’t been prepaid.
Rochelle, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

They have a well lit parking lot, which is good for the prostitution industry which thrives there. If your sink happens to be stopped up, the desk attendant will hook you up with a plunger but the rest is up to you. The bed was decent but the room always felt a bit too moist, unless you cranked the A/C to 68 degrees. Never felt unsafe, but definitely wouldn't recommend.
Jamie, 4-night trip

Great they have warm breakfast not like other hotel that only have cafe

Do not stay here!

This hotel was disgusting. We requested to change rooms 2 times! The entire floor reeked of cigarette and marijuana smoke. The shower was moldy and dirty. The bed linens were covered in stains.
Denise, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

OK hotel

The best thing about this hotel is the waffle maker at the kitchen where they serve complimentary breakfast every morning. Other than that, it’s a really old place and it’s suited for out of state workers.
Mladen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy to get in and out
William, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The property is comfortable, but the reception is poor and front desk staff are often rude.

Celeste, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

It was hard to drive to the hotel and it's in a rundown area of town. There was a massage bathtub but the area around the jets looked disgusting. The breakfast was good in a nice room on the third floor.
