I like to sleep with 4 pillows i could have asked. And the shoer was not working real good. I was tired and i had another 8 hours of driving in the morning
This hotel is perfect for an inexpensive stop to sleep. No frills, just beds and a bathroom. It has always been clean, though there is sometimes damage to a wall or door frame that needs to be done.
I arrived very late, but I was greeted and felt comfortable. I was obviously tired and the front desk attendant asked me if I needed anything. She informed me where to park and the time breakfast was ready. It was perfect because I needed to leave at very early. The breakfast area was very nice and there was plenty of room to seat. It was a nice stay.

The overall condition inside of the rooms was bad. It definitely needs an upgrade.

The breakfast was marginally OK. Waffles with no butter or margarine. No fresh fruit. No bread, toast or muffins. No yogurt. No hot cereal and only sugar coated dry cereals. The hot drink options were, however, very good.
The room was adequate, however the space was run down with lights that didn’t work or flickered, an outlet that didn’t work and paint peeling in the bathroom. Also the bathroom door was damaged, mended with tape and didn’t close correctly or lock.
I spent the night in room 160 with a friend. We got a room with two beds. My friend chose the bed closes to the window. in the morning he woke up with bug bites on his arm. His friends happened to spent the night in the same room and also said they where bed bugs.
It has been the worse room ever it smelled really bad the heater didn’t work the beds were uncomfortable the kids got itchy all of the body. I really would like my money back
