The room was fine, check in was not. They wanted a cash deposit, which I got back at check out. Breakfast was good, better than what you usually get at this type of place.

Front desk women ignored us as we waited 10 minutes to check in, being the only guests in the lobby. Puddle of water from refrigeration going down under the bed in our room. She came in and used towels and left them saturating the water under the fridge. Lastly was told buiscuits and sausage gravy for breakfast. 6:30-8 am no biscuits or sausage

It’s convenient but check in time is a minimum of 30 minutes every time we stay. Sometimes it takes an hour for an already made reservation to be processed.

Property was remodeled by incompetent workers. You can see mistakes and sloppy work everywhere. The price of the room was way too high for the quality of the room. Plus, they hold $100 extra while you are there which i believe to be unnecessary for such a low cost hotel.
