A pleasant check in and check out, staff were very friendly. Nice touch with the free breakfast, it looked like repairs were going on beside the elevator. The shower was horrible, as you can’t turn the shower head on without getting yourself wet, it’s the way they made the shower door, on the one side it doesn’t slide, there’s no other access to turn the shower head on. Location was good, but the neighborhood is a bit dicey, nevertheless we did walk to the Circle K Convenience store, both evenings we stayed, so it’s not that unsafe, but…

I had a good stay

Seems a bit old and outdated. However it was very clean, comfortable enough, inexpensive, and I love that they had body wash and shampoo built into the wall so there was plenty instead of having to use the tiny bottles. The body wash actually smells really good too. Also doesn’t hurt that it had a pool, hot tub and warm breakfast in the morning. Great hotel and has what you need it’s only lacking quality is it could use a make over that’s all!

I think the bed (box spring) in my room was broken as it was creaking and the bed was a little bowed. Didn’t have time to complain. Maybe they will read this or someone can make a complaint.

Front entrance was small, parking lot small, second floor hallway was uneven. Carpet felt like it was laid on top of old flooring. Rooms were nice but small. Renovated bathroom appears to have been done quickly sacrificing quality.
