Staff was not professional. The woman who checked me in was talking to her son on the phone the whole time she was checking me in. Bathroom had old toothpaste in the sink. It had obviously not been cleaned. The toilet was broken. Couldn’t even use it. Breakfast was awful. They were out of virtually everything. We got tired of waiting for someone to replenish the food and ended up leaving and going to McDonald’s. Probably the worst motel I’ve ever stayed at.

The bed was comfy. The breakfast was yummy. And there was even a small koi pond out front. The Cons: after it rained, the pool was very cloudy. Like it needed chemicals in it. And after you got off the elevator to the 3rd floor, there was a weird smell. You couldn't smell it in the room or even downstairs. Just in the 3rd floor hallway. I would stay here again.

Receptionist seemed annoyed that we were making her get off her chair to check us in. Didn’t receive housekeeping after 1st night. The morning breakfast area was clean and well stocked. Overall a pleasant stay!
