This is not a bad place to stay. It needs some minor updates, and I'll never understand why hotels use carpeting instead of hard flooring. The carpet in my room was not the greatest. The room was pretty big, with a separate couch and two double beds. The breakfast was above average for a hotel breakfast. The waffle machine is always solid, and it was name brand jelly, so that's a plus. The sausage was delicious. It had a small pool and a McDonalds right next door. Nothing scary or sketchy. I'd definitely stay here again.

Overall a clean room my only pet peeve was that it smelled like dogs tremendously even after spring Lysol and an air freshener and still smell of dogs of which I'm allergic to breakfast was amazing staff was amazing hotel lobby and the dining area was immaculate and although they're vending machine was currently down they still did their best to provide things that you may need such as toothpaste soap and other little toiletries such as Band-Aids ABC XYZ and provided waters and sodas again was definitely not happy about the smell of dog especially when I don't own any and I'm allergic to them but all in all it was a great stay and I've stayed quite a few days this last past week and will stay again.

The property can use a lot of TLC. I was in one room that reeked of cigarette smoke, carpet was sticky, and the water in the bathtub and sink didn't go down. I had to get transferred to another room, and the staff at the desk was very nice and found another room for me. That toom was better in terms of cleanliness, and water being able to drain from tub and sink. In terms of the smoking smell, it was better, but, still I can tell smoking did occur in the past.
