Clean and Affordable

Checked all boxes I was looking for: clean, safe and affordable. So many area hotels are very expensive so the Pleasant Inn was a great find.

The room was spotless and comfortable, check in was a breeze and the front desk staff were 5 stars - so friendly and kind! Zero complaints. The area is not the best and parking is very difficult due to the spaces not being designed for full size vehicles. We managed though and everything you need is close by with easy access to the rest of the city.

The location is very convenient - right next to the highway, down the street from Walmart and a grocery store, across the street from a gas station and down the street from one of my friends and the neighborhood where I used to live. There's a great hibachi style restaurant right next door with great food. The rooms were very clean. We had an electrical issue with our first room after a couple of days and was moved to another room. It was a nice, clean room also, so no complaints. The parking can get really tight if the hotel is fully occupied. After the 4th of July weekend was over and people started leaving, the parking situation was much better. I would definitely book here again. The staff was awesome, from the front desk to the housekeepers. Thanks for a great stay! This was part of what made a great vacation for me and my son.
