Great Stay

We travel extensively and have stayed at many hotels. We grabbed this room last minute on a holiday weekend. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much, but this place was great. It’s super clean, roomy, not transient and a little tucked away. The owners take a lot of pride in their property and the price can’t be beat. The pool was clean, the room was one of the largest I’ve stayed in and housekeeping came every day to freshen room and change towels.

We stayed in room 115 there was roaches and ants. The tv would not shut off. The shower had no safety rubber it was very slick. If it was not 11pm and we drove 11 hours we would have left. We will never stay there again!

The staff were very rude. The rooms that are showed on the website are definitely not what you walk into. Seen black mold around the fire alarm in room, pubic hairs still in the bathtub and the top comforter on the bed looked like it hadn’t been washed or was stained. It worked for the one night we needed but will definitely not be booking here again.

First room was flooded with water and the lady at the desk knew about it already and did nothing and kept trying to check people into that room. 2nd room we got smelt heavily like mold and it had an air humidifier in it that was apparently broke and started throwing out pieces of plastic. Also there were tweakers fighting in the parking lot for most of the night.

I would say the floors hadn’t been cleaned in 8 months or more. My son spilt something so I wiped it up and my wipe was solid black. The whole places smelled like mold and mildew. They have had bedbugs at some point in time because the stains on the pillow cases and sheets showed that. They didn’t even have the decency to throw those away. The Wi-Fi didn’t work the entire time we were there. The staff at the front desk wasn’t friendly either. She gave me an attitude because I had to come back twice because my key stopped working. 0/10 do not recommend.

Disgusting. Bodily, bloody fluids on both bedspreads in the room as we entered. Management did not offer to move us in spite of plenty of rooms available. We slept in our clothes on to of the comforter. Coffee in the lobby late to be made on both morning we were there. Way overpriced for what it is. Do not stay here.

Just okay.

It was okay. The room was good for the price. We had to wait around 15 minutes for someone to come in to check us in to our room. He snatched things out of my hands and tossed them back. I didn’t love that. Overall, the stay was fine, however we won’t stay at this particular location again.
