JEFF

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Convenient but it's right next to the main road and noisy. My room was upstairs. The stairs were in an unkept condition with debris all over them. An ashtray on the front porch was full of OLD cigarette butts. The lighting was poor and the lock was very hard to open. Like someone had tried breaking in at one time. The deadbolt was not functioning with the key. The carpet inside was very stained and dirty. Would not stay here again.

Neglected maintenance all over the property and in the room. No couch or easy chair. A bed, two straight backed chairs and a small table. Poor lighting. Heater worked well.

Loved the atmosphere and location. Dust on the walls and beams and smoke from nearby campfires came through and messed with my allergies.

I never saw any staff the entire time we were there, they texted me that I could not check in until 3 (Fine) and when we got there I was very disappointed. The outlets we needed to charge our phone were behind the bed and when I looked back there there was tons of dust and actual garbage, I was the dirtiest place I have stayed in a long time and was no bargain. For sure not worth the money!
