No one was at the front desk and there wasn't any breakfast our first morning. There were broken bottles in the parking lot. The pool and hot tub were out of order as well as the soft drink vending machine. We will not stay here again.

I would not stay at this motel again it’s very loud at night I watch people break into a car the motel smelled like weed throughout the whole building. People were sitting everywhere in parking lot in lawn chairs it was just very odd for a motel. I’m assuming that people live there on a normal week and that is why it has more of an apartment feel.

They're trying really hard to make a nice property, but the pool and spa were both closed, the cleaning materials used in the public areas made me unwell, and I couldn't get sleep my last night due to the stuffiness of the room and feral children running in the hallway. There's a good beginning here but they have a way to go.

Staff did what they could but they booked us in an occupied room. Second room was full of tools and apparently being remodeled, third room the TV didn't work. Promised a rebate, but they were gone by morning and that never happened. That aside, it was remarkably clean for a budget hotel. Once they get management figured out it'll be a good place to catch some zzz's

We stayed here one night for a concert. The lobby & outside of the building looked nice. The hallways to the rooms had a lot of areas that needed fixing, mainly paint & replacing trim. The room smelled almost barn-like. The floors were damp from humidity, which also made our clothes damp. The tub drain was plugged so the tub filled immediately when the water ran.

Good value, but the pool was broken, AC was extremely loud, beds were nice, bathroom was very dated, cleanliness was above average, breakfast was average or below, there was very loud and disruptive tenants in a nearby room, and halls smelled of marijuana. Cleaning staff was very friendly and accommodating.

When I arrived, I was check into a room that really did not meet my standards. I went back to the front desk, told her my concerns and she spoke to the manager. the manager showed me a different room and then went above and beyond to make sure all of my needs were meant. I would not have stayed had it not been for her! She was fantastic! It just goes to show that if you take a positive approach with management and give them a chance to resolve the issues you have, you just might be surprised at how well they do. I would give the staff, especially the Manager at this hotel an A++
