  • The white ginger soap smelt awesome. But the views and the quality of room was A+.
  • They need a floor monitor didn't care for the plates and trays on floor by doors.

“The room was great cozy and had a great view. The TV dated the room to the 90s and also wallpaper in the bathroom. I would recommend if gonna charge bucks for water get something beside nasty tasting aquafina. WiFi should never be charged!”

  • Staff was nice.
  • Filthy, dirty, disgusting room.

“We choose this hotel due to the proximity to my Brother-n-law's house and the fact that they allow pets. The hotel is way past due for a renovation. The staff was nice and helpful, but the room itself was disgusting. The carpets and walls were filthy, the curtains hung halfway on a broken rod. I felt so uncomfortable sitting on the chair provided that I covered it with a clean towel. Honestly, I have never been so grossed out by a hotel room. I would chose the Motel 6 down the street next time for sure.”

  • The bed was very comfortable and the sheets were nice!
  • All of the channels did not come in.

“I was nervous about this hotel because of the reviews I had read on here, but I was pleasantly surprised. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone! The free continental breakfast was good too!”
