Excellent hotel. However the staff had taken my credit card at check in. Then after a few minutes asked for a card to secure the stay. Not sure I didn’t remember they already had a card I gave them another. Thought I had lost the other when I went to pay at a local restaurant. Later they called my room and said they “found” my card. A mix up for sure but am grateful for them returning it. Other than that? I recommend this hotel!

Upon arrival at the property I was not greeted by the front desk personnel. The front desk employee tinkered with the computer while I stood there waiting to be acknowledged for check in. Also my AMEX Platinum and Visa cards were declined even though it had sufficient funds. Luckily another Visa card worked. Not a good first impression of the property upon check in. The hotel room floor looked dirty with shoe marks. This will be the first and last time I stay here.

We experienced a very disappointing situation. A month ago, we made a reservation for two queen beds to accommodate our party of four, as a sofa bed was not a suitable option for us. Even though we completed an online check-in the day before arrival, our room was changed to one bed and a sofa bed without any prior notification or explanation. This was extremely inconvenient and frustrating.

We arrived at this hotel on Monday night, November 25th, and it was a terrible mistake. We relied on online reviews, which unfortunately turned out to be misleading. The hotel was incredibly unclean. The bed had noticeable stains, suggesting a lack of proper laundering. The carpet was filthy, and the bathroom was disgusting. After a long drive from Arizona, we were too exhausted to relocate or request a room change. We used extra blankets to cover the bed, but still woke up with insect bites on our feet. Please do not be fooled by the positive reviews for this hotel. They are clearly inaccurate. I'm unsure how this establishment obtained a license, but I will do my best to report it and prevent others from suffering a similar experience.

The price was really quite low. Property matched my minimal expectations for that price. Beds were comfy and clean. Hallways, carpets, etc were very dated and some in bad shape. Nothing fancy, but easily served purpose of a safe clean place to stay for low price.
