Found cockroach on air conditioner, hair all over the bathtub, fridge didn't work/ice over, bedspreads stained (hopefully washed). The place was run like a Red Roof Inn or Super 8, but charging Holiday Inn prices. It may have turned me off from the brand for good, why risk running into an independantly owned hotel run like this if they aren't held to Holiday Inn standards. I'll stick to Hamptop I guess, terrible.

I like the fact that the hotel was located near the interstate. I did not like the fact that my room was located near the lobby and so I could hear people talking in the hallways and walking around while I am trying to sleep.

Dirty shower and bathroom. Had left over used cups from last person who stayed in the room before. The housekeeping staff pounded on the door 6-7 times at 9am until I got to the door. Check out was at 11. It pissed me and my partner off when we were trying to sleep in.

Everything was great from checkin to checkout. We only stayed one night but if we are ever in the area again we would most definitely stay here. The front desk manager was very accommodating which made the experience even better. An added perk was the shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion were all Dove which was amazing we have never stayed anywhere that had Dove. 5 out of 5 stars. Overall great experience here.

On checking in we were given a room and keys only to open the door and find it was already occupied. We also reserved a king bed but they were not available. The toilet tank cover was smashed and glued back together and possibly the tub too
