  • The hotel was near a major expressway.
  • Old rooms, dirty bathroom, needs upgrades.

“I would not rate this room as a moderate. No wireless internet, dirty room and bathroom, needs remodeling and upgrades.”

  • In the middle of construction.

  • The inside pool area, it is great for kids.
  • The bathrooms need some work. They didn't look clean to me.

  • The staff was wonderful and took an interest in us.
  • The wireless internet connection was spotty at best.

“Great location to highway. Very friendly staff; the night workers were interested in why we were in town (looking for apartments) and took the effort to recommend places that we could check out. They remembered us every night. We only ate breakfast once, which was enough for us. Unimpressed with the dining situation.”

  • I liked the ping-pong, shuffleboard, hot tub, and very close to the expressway to get places.
  • I didn't like that the shuffleboard sticks were broken, too smoking going to elevator at nighttime, and bathroom wasn't as clean as it should be.

“If you like to party, this is the hotel for it because of karaoke. Not a family unless you going during the week. My son loved the games in the pool room and that was a plus. I wish we had a fridge in the room.”

  • There was nothing I liked about this hotel.
  • Everything.

“This place was run down and old. It is in need of some major renovations. Our bed was lopsided and warned. The bedding was old and dingy; they were no longer white sheets. The TV didn't come in very clear. The bathroom was really small. The pool was on the 5th floor right above you and it was in bad shape. The restaurant over looked my order after waiting over an hour I found out that they had not even started it yet. Then for Breakfast, I ordered my eggs over medium and they came back over hard, she reordered them and they came back the same way. I think they need to find a new cook. I would not recommend this hotel for anyone.”

  • Easy to find.
  • Some guests were too loud after 9 at night.

“Rooms were clean, workers were friendly, food easy good, service is good.”

Cleanliness:[2] • Staff:[5] • Location:[6]

  • Very convenient location.
  • Poorly maintained. Shower operated poorly. Thread bare towels. Furnishings need replacement.

“I would not recommend this hotel. Very poorly maintained. There has clearly been very little investment to make this hotel comfortable for guests.”
