The room was well worth the price. Everything was clean overall. The only things I have to say that aren't worth 5 stars are that my room had some mold around the jets on the face of the showerhead and that there was a dirt stain on the fitted sheet of the bed. Also, the one interaction I had with someone at the front desk wasn't bad, but wasn't inviting either. I would stay here again because the quality for the price is worth it.

A bad night

Old food in drawers, no bedding for pullout couch. The chairs had food crumbs on them. The floor did not look clean. I am done with Choice hotels, I thought I would try them again, I was a frequent user several years ago.

Given a Dirty Room at Midnight

Took 20 minutes at midnight to check-in. Didn't provide me a receipt because their computer was broken. Couldn't run a credit card for incidentals. Finally got to my room and IT WAS A DIRTY ROOM. I had specifically asked for extra pillows in my booking so obviously they didn't bother to do that as well. Took another 10 minutes to finally get my room. Ridiculous.

Great rooms, good breakfast. Nice quiet outdoor seating. Staff seems to work with looks of I don't want to be here attitude. We arrived at 2:36 to see if we could check in for 3:00 lady working said I could do it at 3...as we were already in the building I asked to use the restroom and no TP or paper towels. I asked the lady politely and she says oh they are busy cleaning the rooms...I replied so I have to wait...I then see a different worker going to the supply closet and asked him for TP...all this with 90+ weather outside. Also booked 1 night with pay in person option to pay in Cash they would add a $100 deposit...so card it was

Disgusting place! Do not stay here

It was awful!! We ended up leaving because the room was so disgusting. The floor was sticky. It was 80° in the room because the air conditioning didn’t work. The shower head was broken. The paint was coming off the cabinets which my 1 year old keep picking up and trying to put in his mouth. The main door has a gap and is loose. Awful! Just gross and awful
