My room just smelled like smoke bad bad. The bed was massively squeaky. The red chair and lamps looks like they have been in a smoking room for 10 years.

I was hit with a million fees upon check in. Granted I should’ve read the “fine” print before signing my invoice. I booked online & went off what was posted online. Lady at the counter was bothered by the fact that she had to provide a service & it took her away from her phone call….it’s clearly just a pay check to her.

I stayed at this property because it was for a work stay and it was close to my job location. It wasn't bad. They had breakfast most mornings. But the walls are thin and you can hear others around. I would say it was okay

There was pretty much nothing good about this place. Did not feel safe, could hear people having sex all through the night and morning. Could hear everything from many rooms. Dirty bathroom, looked like it had been cleaned but just needed to be completely replaced a few years ago.

Not a great place
Definitely get what you pay for. Pictures on the site dont match what you get. Definitely thought we would be robbed. Parked under the light in the lot because i thought the car might get broken into. Flys in the room, carpet gross. Everythung was sticky to touch. The "blanket" was just a sheet. Room and hall smelled like smoke even though it was non smoking. Constant noise from the room next door from tv, to stomping around and people banging on the doors.

Children on the second floor.
After we check in, noticed that the room above us had children and they were extremely noisy and stomping around very loudly. Went to the front desk and the man at the desk wasn’t helpful, I asked him to come and listen to the noise, he didn’t. We left and went and got dinner, came back and the noise level was still the same. He told me that no one was in the room above me. He followed me to our room, #116, heard the noise, and left. 10 more minutes, I go back to the front desk and there is also a lady there, they finally move me and my husband to a room on the opposite hallway to a king room.

I booked my hotel room 3 months in advance for 2 adults and one child for a room with two queen beds. (Plus we had our pet) When we arrived today they did not have any double bed rooms. They didn’t have any extra cots or roll away beds. They only had one-bed rooms available and tried to tell me that was the room I booked. I showed him my email confirmation that I booked a standard room with two queen beds. The man at the desk wasn’t even sorry. He only said there was nothing they could do since all the other rooms were already occupied. After driving 13 hours to get there from New Orleans we had to find a different hotel for that night. Worst booking ever.

A little slim on the bedding.
The place was fine. Breakfast was good. My only issue was the bed had one sheet and a very thin cover (that was thinner than the sheet). When we got to our room someone had the air conditioner on full blast and it was freezing! We actually had to turn the heater on in mid-May. With the thin sheets for covers we were cold all night. Obviously I should have left the heater on longer, just seemed odd to do that when it was warm outside. Really need to get some type of comforter or duvet or have blankets available in the room.

Beware of the staff.
They allowed us to check in early but we couldn't go into the room, which was ok since we were only staying there because my daughter was having surgery. Once we finally got there the front desk staff acted like we were bothering her, even though we already had a key and didn't need her help for anything. The room did not have a coffee pot so when we got up at 5:30 am we went downstairs to get a cup from the lobby. A different front desk staff was there but she wasn't any friendlier. She started telling us that the free breakfast wasn't available until 7 am. I informed her that I didn't want any of the food, I just wanted coffee since the rooms didn't have any available and that I was going to take my daughter some juice up. She got nasty and told me that the juice wouldn't come on until 7 am. There is no vending of any kind on the second floor where we were. She could have explained about the juice nicely instead of being rude to me. I would not recommend anyone staying here and if you do, just beware. The Waffle House next door has really nice employees and good coffee if you need some. Because you certainly won't get good coffee there or be treated well. The ladies that were there when I checked in were really nice though.

Everything was really great. Affordable, friendly staff, easy access, room was clean. Only thing I marked less than best was because of the toilet. Until i figured out what position to put the flusher lever in, it would run. I alerted the staff of it at checkout. Even with that, very good stay, i will definitely return if I ever need a hotel in that area.

There were 2 stains on one of the beds. Carpets really need to be cleaned. I spilled something and when I went to clean it up, the towel was black from the carpet.

Area was kinda shady, but still was suitable. Rooms were decent. Had two beds in the room, but only one set of towels. The toilet seat was quite small, so be careful! Overall, I would stay here again for one night.

Get what you pay for
My adult aged son and I chose this hotel because we had such a comfortable stay at an evobolodgr the night before in Dalhart, TX. This one though is not anything like the former. It was fine but not as nice and the vibe felt strange. It’s off the beaten path but yet still close to the freeway which was great but it’s surrounded by liquor stored and bars making the area feel somewhat shady. The room was way too cold and the ac was broken and there were no towels in our room but the concierge was accommodating when we asked for a few. We checked out before breakfast was available. Parking is free, on site and lit up. This overnight cost around $100 with taxes and fees. For the price you get what you should expect. That’s the best way to sum it all up.

NIGHT CRAWLERS HOTEL!!!!
The shower was HORRIBLE, no holders to hold on too. The wall above the shower head, looks like mold. We stayed u almost night, leaking toilet. People talking all night, the people above us were walking all night. Looks like people live there, I get it, Hard times for allot of people. Was very upset, normally we stay at the Super 8. However, there rooms were very high when it came down to prices.

Nice stay! Comfy beds! Bedding on the beds had holes due to smokers although I was in Non-smoking room. Bathrooms are decent. My only complaint would be the fire alarm going off in the middle of the night due to the smokers.

My review
I was very pleased with the stay overall. My wife is a chef so we were disappointed with the breakfast they were serving. The room it was clean nice comfortable mattress but I had to get new sheets because mine had burn holes from the smoking rooms and I had a smoke free room. So if I couldn’t smoke in my room and I would have to pay a fee why would I have holes on my sheets. I also had a very dirty toilet and seat as if it wasn’t for my wife bringing our own cleaning supplies I would have moved to another room. Would I stay there again yes

I was disappointed in our stay at this property. It was billed as a non-smoking room but there were cigarette burn holes in the drape and carpet. The room had a slight odor but the hallway was overpowering with the smell of cigarettes. I reported all issues with front desk immediately after check in as they collect a fifty dollar deposit on credit card. Fortunately they have refunded the collected deposit on my card.
