BEWARE: All Expedia rooms are on the 2nd floor and they have NO ELEVATOR. In every other aspect, it is a very nice hotel. Wal-Mart across the street. Taco Bell next door on one side and McDonald's on the other. Lousy coffee but an otherwise good breakfast. But my husband is a cardiac patient and the lack of an elevator was a serious problem.

The overall property and room were dated but clean. Upon checkin we noticed there were hairs in the bathtub and on shower walls. When we reported it, the staff was quick to clean the whole bathroom. We were disappointed that the television in the bedroom did not work, the staff could not get it working and did not offer to replace the television or the Direct TV modem so that we would have a working television. The hotel was booked at very low capacity, so there were plenty of possible subsitutes. The check in staff was excellent and very helpful.

Nice property, rude staff. Pets allowed does not mean pet (or service animal) friendly.. When I checked in the receptionist was sure to be vocal of that fact that she will have to change my reservation to another room since she saw a dog in my car when I pulled up. She then tried attaching an $88 (EIGHTY EIGHT!) dollar fee to that until I provided prof of my dog being a registered service animal, which was reluctantly accepted with an eye roll. As I was in town for a wedding I requested a late checkout which was granted with another eye roll. Yet exactly at 10am, which is 1 hour before check out time and 2 hours before late check out, and although I had a do not disturb sign on the door, a housekeeper comes walking in unannounced as she was told by front desk the room had been vacated The property itself I found to be very nice. Clean, modern, nice patio area and good breakfast. The “hospitality” workers however, could benefit from a workshop or 2 on hospitality
