The hotel is in need of renovations. The room was fine. The location was in a convenient location. I’m noticing that so many hotels are price gouging that why we chose this hotel because it was not too overpriced.

Helpful Staff

This motel was what we expected and paid for. It’s outdated and the carpet had a smell. It served its purpose for our one night stay. We arrived an hour and a half early and our room wasn’t ready. But we were in a hurry to get dressed for a wedding. The front desk lady sent three workers to clean our room for us. They had it ready in 15 minutes. This was above and beyond, and greatly appreciated!!!

The first thing my husband and I noticed when we walked into our room was a distinct unpleasant smell. Enough that we didn't want to stay there more than 2 of the 4 nights we were supposed to stay. Also it was very noisy because of carpet being removed from the hotel.

Other than the lady in the front desk, it was very rude at first, but she had to warm up to me. The bathrooms are all clean very well however the rooms are dated, and the floors are tile which proves an issue when moving around, barefoot

The furniture could have come from Goodwill. It was battered and dented. The chair was dirty and I was afraid to sit in it. Worse yet, the room had an odor of dead fish. I complained to the front desk their solution was to hand me a can of Febreze. When I asked for another room and was told that there were none. They told me that I would be moved the next day. The room I was moved into was next door and smelled just as bad. Needless to say, I did not stay there for the second night. Fortunately, I was only billed for the night I did stay and even that was an overcharge. This is barely a 1 star hotel. My recommendation - Do not stay here!!
