Nothing spectacular about this spot, but it's (relatively) inexpensive; the staff is cordial (but not over-friendly). Good spot for a quick staycation or a rendezvous 😎 .
Sands inn is always quick and quiet. Their service is always polite and they will speak with you about any concerns. The rooms are kept clean & they have many options if you have a big family.
The Sands hotel is a quiet place to stay without any traffic coming in and out but the rooms are very small. I would recomend it to people being clean over all.
Definitely Recommend Friendly Staff and Peaceful ✌
The Owners or Staff in the Office were really nice and Accommadating, they let me check in early with an additional $20 dollar fee but i get it. Its Business and ivwas ok with that because you get your deposit back. Thank you. I will def come back for another Fun NighT lol :)
It doesn’t worth the price i was charged. Very old and gross.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Our room didn’t have a normal size door, so you feel pressured to enter the room, the room just let you feel cheap and not welcome feeling. You can hear almost everything from neighbors, and we unfortunately had very bad neighbors for first few days, there were yelling and arguing all the night. Got headaches due to bad sleep. We won’t stay there again
