The hotel and its accommodations are out dated. I arrived to the area a bit early and stopped by the hotel to see if early check in was possible. Unfortunately it was not as check in time was at 3:00pm. I was asked to come back after 3pm, so I did at 3:45pm. They still didn’t have anything ready and asked that I wait 2 hours for a room to be ready, so I waited. Almost 6pm when a room was finally ready. I had booked two rooms for myself and family with two double beds in each for two nights. Getting the rooms and only one room was ready with two beds and the other was a room with one king bed. They would be able to move us into a room with two beds for our other night. Not cool. But we decided to make the best of what was available because we had been traveling and were tired. The king room had these plastic dollar store bags as lamp covers, a ceiling tile was missing, the T.V didn’t work and the bed was broken. I go down to the office to let them know and they send maintenance to fix the problems. The T.V was just out , he replaced a ceiling tile, and tried to fix the bed with a brick and was still unsuccessful. We changed rooms to one with another king bed and that one was subpar yet we were able to salvage our stay in that room. Being that we were family we didn’t mind sharing a bed. The room with two beds was also subpar but we made it work as most of the hotels in the area were fully booked.

I was unable to check-in. The receptionist said they had had a flood and the rooms were not fit for use. I drove nearly 350 miles to find I had no accommodation. Most unsatisfactory, it's ruined my weekend. I trust I will not be charged for anything.

The property was pretty much as advertised. Stayed 2 nights there was no house keeping between the nights. Way too much noise at night, horns blowing, dogs barking, moving furniture above us. It said that they had a breakfast, coffee only is not breakfast.

So much was wrong. The room was clean as it should be. The sink was disgusting and there was dust everywhere. The toilet started back up, which was disgusting. I notified the front desk who were quick about fixing it meanwhile my husband had to go to McDonald's to use the bathroom. Come back hours later and there's no running water. This place was horrible, something off of a movie. I thought it was a prank at first but that what my husband gets for being cheap. I wouldn't recommend for animals.

Room was filthy dirty. Bed had hair on it. Tub was all rusted on the bottom. Shower curtain had blood stain. Terrible experience. Originally had a three day reservation I canceled two, had to stay one night, did not had where to stay then. Not recommend. Inexpensive doesn’t mean it has to be filthy dirty!
