I paid for 1 king accessible and we were also traveling with a small dog. We did not get a king. Was told they didn’t have a king available with pet. Then she announced loudly my room number and explained how to get to it. The hall carpet was dirty and torn. Bed was ok but pillows were flat. When I politely questioned all this was told nothing could be done.

property was old, although appreciated the rooms without carpet when traveling with our dog. They do a good job with keeping the property a good place to want to stay due to the fact that it is clean and the staff is friendly and professional.

The lobby is misleading

The lobby was nice and the rooms were decent, but getting from the parking lot to the room was gross. Breakfast wasn't great so we skipped it. There was also not much room to sit. It's in a sketchy area, but the back parking lot was walled off so it was somewhat protected. There were a lot of people hanging around the back door when we tried to enter. Hallways were dim and carpet is worn down. Bathtub was gross.
