The place looks good from outside but inside is pretty run down. No carpet in room, just a basic room for sleeping I guess. Door to side parking lot was always propped open with rocks with people constantly coming & going. Almost felt like a homeless shelter for women with lots of unsupervised kids. I wouldn't stay there again.

When I tried to plug in a charging cord in the wall, it kept falling out. The socket wasn’t too secure.

everything was as expected except for the breakfast: subpar with waffle batter being different every day: - too thick or too liquid when too liquid it was unusable and staff took a long time to clean the waffle iron

Budget hotel at best
We made a reservation for a king room with a sofa bed for 4 people. Front desk employees were friendly. Room was small, but sufficient size. I'm almost certain that our non-smoking room used to be a smoking room, because it definitely had a faint smell of cigarette smoke, and the entire hallway around our room had a strong cigarette odor. They didn't leave us any sheets, blankets or pillows for the sofa bed, and the sofa bed mattress was dirty with food crumbs. My husband went down to the front desk to ask for blankets. Around 40 minutes later, we called down since they hadn't arrived yet. When they did finally arrive, they brought us 2 sheets and that's it. The bathroom was pretty bad. I considered not using the shower because it was gross. The shower had mold and the shower head was all rusty. Housekeeping really needs to spend more time on the shower. In the morning, our bathroom smelled strongly of pot, so I guess our neighbors must've been enjoying their morning smoke. I'm really not sure how this place has decent reviews. It wasn't the worst, but it definitely fits into the budget hotel category. I would not recommend this hotel and will not stay here again.

Cleanliness is key
Our stay was Brief, but just like any other time we've stayed there, we've had great service and clean room. The bed was not comfy but that is the only complaint.

Horrible door locked behind us and we say around waiting for a couple hours for them to get in which they couldn’t. So we stayed in another room with none of our belongings or wallets all night.

I would not stay in this hotel again. I walked into the room, one pillow case purple stains all over the pillow case, one bed was gross, and the bed frame looked as if someone had wiped their boogers all over it. Felt like i needed to wear sandles in the shower. The door didnt lock properly. When I checked if someone could easily break into my room. They can. I shut the door and pushed slightly hard and th3 door just opened wirh easy when it should be locked.

Stayed in Room 242 which is at the end of a hall next to a heavy fire stair door that was broken and would not close. Makes anyone on that end a target for break-ins or burnouts. Will follow-up with the fire department. This is not ok.

Meh.
Was charged a pee fee at the hotel. Then they weren’t even aware I had a pet, although I booked that I had one! Then they switched me rooms. We didn’t check the room until we got back late that night/next morning and see they gave me a room with no tub. I was pretty upset about that.

It was so so, a little pricer than what it should be. Had to go get breakfast elsewhere, low stock and not much to choose from at the hotel's breakfast bar. Room was dirty, maybe reused sheets from previous guests

We left some items in the room, called that day after checkout (since we aren’t from that area) and they said they had our items and would mail them to us and we gave them our address. Never received anything so we called again and was told that our items were not there and they cannot mail them to us and that’s not something they do. Sounds like staff is stealing.

Room had a disgusting mold smell. Water was leaking out of the refrigerator all over the floor and had absorbed into the TV cabinet, likely causing the moldy smell. It permeated my clothes and cpap machine. Breakfast offering was some gross eggs with liquid pooled in the bottom of the pan, and sausage gravy and stale biscuits. No real protein offering.

The walls were pretty thin - it was noisy had to use ear plugs to sleep- this property has homeless living there, and probably working there. Many do not speak English. All were courtious though. Also expedia told us our price for the 3 nights was a certain price and our price went up every night. What's with that?
