Parking lot could have had more lighting. Upon check-in I was given a key to an unclean room. Staff happened to be in the hall and seemed shocked. He immediately went to the front desk and got key a for a different room while I went to the car to get my luggage. He checked the second room to make sure it was clean and ready for a guest, and it was. Three small bars of soap but no shampoo, conditioner, or lotion. This place could use an update but it was fine for what I needed. The price was over half what other hotels in the area were charging. I guess I got what I paid for.

This is a cheap, no-frills hotel. we did not get any information about anything when we checked in (pool, breakfast, parking etc). There is no elevator here, so if you are in need of an accessible room, make sure you reserve for that...I did not ask for that on the reservation, but that was my fault, and we made the 2nd floor room work.
