Employees were nice but problem was I never had a Key for my room since their machine was broken. I had to wait for them to open for me every single day! And sometimes they were busy with other customers, I had to wait so it was not a good experience. I also wanted to stay an additional 2 days and was not offered any discount for the inconvenience or for booking multiple days already. I don’t know but not having a key to my room is reason for some sort of compensation don’t you think ? I don’t think I’ll be returning here to be honest, I wish they would have at least giving me a discount or something.

I would not stay here again. Friday night was ehhh. At 3am on Sunday morning we woke up to what sounded like our shower was turned on…come to find out, the ceiling was pouring water. I went to the front desk to let them know. The lady at the front desk just stated “I cannot do anything and the manager is not here but he will call you” I still have yet to get a phone call in regards to having anything done. We ended up having to leave the hotel at 3:30am to drive home (back to Arizona) which was not the original plan but it was what we were forced to do. Tried to call the hotel at 11am like the front desk lady said to do….got nothing but put onto an immediate hold. I would never recommend or stay here again.

Decent place to stay, not the fanciest place you can get but a great location and dog friendly with no pet fees. Overall it’s a you get what you pay for hotel. No bugs, outdated room but all of you don’t plan on spending a lot of time at the hotel it’s a good option.
