The bathroom tub was a bit stained. There were a significant amount of roaches that came out. The mini refrigerator was dirty as well. I think if you focused on this a bit more you could be a much more successful Inn.

And make sure you don’t book ride wrong date accidentally. I tried booking a room last minute and did not realize it was for next day check in so when I got there I tried to explain that I had just booked it before I got there but the person was rude and no customer service and no attempt to help so I had to book again on the spot and they refused to refund the day I booked accidentally.the person told me to call Expedia so I did and tell me they’d contact the hotel since it’s up to them to issues the refund. So basically this hotel will keep your money and it’s DEFINITELY NOT WORTH what I was charged .you can fund a better hotel for a decent price don’t stay here !!

The property is right next to McDonald's and 711. The 7 runs right in front of the property so if you need to get around town, there's the bus. The staff is always so kind to me and housekeeping is on point with their tasks. I love it here
