Beds were comfy...

The staff wasn't very friendly or happy to help. It seemed like we were inconveniencing the staff while in the breakfast area. The room was okay for cleanliness but the hotel as a whole was pretty dirty and smelled of cigarette smoke. The outside doors were not actually locked so safety was a bit of a concern. The breakfast was not ideal and we would have booked elsewhere had we known the breakfast would be less than desirable.

Good for the Price.

Very friendly staff. Fresh painted room. Room was clean and has some updates. Lights are on a timer and continue to go off without constant motion which was annoying. Convenient location.

Wish I'd Booked Somewhere Else

Stay was disappointing. Staff seemed annoyed at request for more towels. Didnt pick up trash or change sheets. Room smelled musty, had to buy air freshener spray for the 5 night stay. First room they gave us had a broken AC so they had to move us to a different room. People seen in back of the hotel area were seemingly doing drugs. I'm not a particular person and most things I can simply accept and adapt but this stay was just disappointing. The pool was absolutely foul. At the time of my booking it said it had a hot tub, but it does not.

Don't think I will stay again on return trip

The front desk clerk was very friendly but ai specifically asked for a room in a quiet part of the hotel and he told me he had, but 2 men kept me up all night talking. Hotel rooms are numbered crazily making no sense. Carpets were full of crumbs and stains. Shower dripped all night snd bed was awful with a huge body dent on my side.

Not Secure

It was good. The facility was old. The back door was not locked so anyone could walk in and the lights in the back parking lot weee not working. We have had vandalizes min the past because of low security. With the words right up against the Inn, it is just a matter of time.
