I was charged an extra $10 for a non-smoking room. I honestly do remember there being an option for smoking/nonsmoking. Furthermore, unless you are staying in a casino, most hotels do not offer rooms for smoking.

This was the absolute worst experience I've ever had. I booked 5 rooms for myself and others. The 2 couples that should have had king size beds waited over 3 hours for a room well after check in time because the rooms weren't ready. Then they didn't even get king beds, they got two double beds. I admittedly made a mistake and booked the other 3 rooms as smoking rooms. Instead of accommodating those people and switching them to non smoking rooms I had to cancel those room and pay an additional $30 for non smoking rooms. Only to have 1 of them be a smoking room anyway. The person at the front desk when all this was going on was absolutely a nightmare.

I was getting a room. The staff person was arguing with the guest. It went on for 20 minutes. All the gas won’t was the paper showing a refund staff finally stopped arguing the gas melt marijuana in his room, and he just wanted another room after all the arguments. My room was OK at the time I went back to next week to stay there. I was given a room on the second floor and I had asked for the first floor because I had to have a hip operation and it’s hard for me to walk up and downstairs steps. I was putting a room that was smelled like marijuana. I called the front desk. Staff said he did not have any other room available in which other people had walked in and canceled the room because he was being so rude and hateful to them I went and got a thing Lysoland sprayed and sprayed and sprayed. I was not very happy. I felt like it was a little bit of discrimination last week. He gave a man a room because she smelled marijuana, but he would not give me a room each day that I came in my key wouldn’t work. I went down and asked them to re-it each staff member every day. I had to walk up and down the stairs, three times before my key would work that is very unacceptable to me. I think they need to fire every one of them for being rude and hateful to me. I would never go back to that place again and I will get in contact with the owners to let them know how bad their place is housekeeping didn’t know what they were supposed to do in the rooms. I asked them to change my bed.

I will say that the front desk staff is some of the best people I’ve had to work with while also not having a good time. My room had 3 places where there was blood on the baseboards, bathroom and in the shower. The television turned on but there’s little to no service, but I had my phone so I scrolled. The room smelled of smoke although they did do their best to renovate and make it pleasing. Here is where my issues really started…there’s no security on the premises and there’s people going around banging on doors asking for money. The second morning I woke to a woman screaming outside my door with her dog and still no security. Between the people drinking in the parking lot, the ones sleeping in the lot and those going room to room looking for money I found the premises to be unsafe and without present security it’s too easy to get out of hand.

This hotel was okay, but I probably wouldn’t stay here again unless I absolutely had to. Requested a non-smoking room & if the smell of that unit was a non-smoking, I could only imagine what a smoking room would smell like. Honestly, the smell was the worst part. Room was okay. Bed was comfy, shower was nice, but it’s a small room & even smaller bathroom. No ledges in the shower to put razor, rag, etc while taking a shower. Breakfast was okay. Decent options, but it wasn’t hot. Staff was okay. I checked in a little after 3 & my room was ready. Took a little bit to get checked in which is fine. Hotel clerk got into an argument on the phone with a third party company in front of a lobby full of people so that was odd. But he was nice to me. But it’s in a safe area with lots of other hotels around and good dining options. Solid 3/5.

Absolutely DO NOT choose this hotel. The room looked fine when we checked in, apart from bug guts on the walls. Then we pulled back our sheets to find toenail clippings, holes, & stains (makeup & black grease stains?). Housekeeping obviously just remade the beds rather than change the sheets between guests. When we went to the front desk, we were given a new room...Which absolutely REEKED of cigarette smoke. When we went back to the front desk, the (I assume) owner was very irritated & rude, telling me there were no other rooms available & that wasn't a smoking room. I highly doubt any of that was true. My child did NOT want to get back in the toenail bed. I suspect most of the many good reviews on Expedia are fake. Other guests were extremely loud and the smell of weed was seeping into our room. Breakfast was dismal with signs posted that you may not bring food back to the room?? I've never seen such. Choose one of the many other hotels located around this one.

Desk clerk person charged me a deposit in excess of room cost because I booked online. The room I was sent to was not ready. I had an appointment so was gone for a couple of hours. Returned, bed was made and room appeared clean. The room was smaller than expected. Bed did not have a conventional box springs. Looked like a black, plastic box. Made the old spring squeak sound. The breakfast was fair. Gravy was cold. It was pretty clean and safe.
