For starters, the area this place is in and the appearance of the place makes me carry an extra mag for my pistol just to go downstairs to the truck. Room smelled like marijuana, bed linens full of cigarette burn holes, room not cleaned well at all. Bed was also very uncomfortable.The morning after the second night I woke up with pain in my left arm and chest, severely itchy and had a total of 8 bites on me. Searched the sheets, pillows, floor and such and found a pretty large wolf spider…likely what bit me. I was going to say something at checkout but couldn’t ever find anyone that worked there….I put the key card on the counter and left. The 2 days following my stay I spent in throbbing pain in my left arm with swollen welts all over my chest. Tons of Benadryl and ibuprofen and a few days later the welts are finally going away. I will NEVER stay here again.

Good for the money

It was a good price, the staff that I encountered were nice and responsive, it’s close to I-40, and it was quiet even though the highway is nearby. I didn’t have any issues really. I just wish the mattress was more comfortable and that the blanket was thicker
