Would recommend staying there they have new owners and they are very nice
This hotel was horrible. I checked in and immediately when I got my belongings in my room, I seen it was INFESTED with roaches. It is very run down, holes underneath the sink. Do not recommend. You get what you pay for it for sure
As soon as we pulled up to the lodge someone was getting arrested we had attempted to talk to the front desk and he was very opaque on the situation didn’t care really at all, on the way out I was given dirty looks just walking away from the building, not the best feeling or energy to this place at all. Didn’t get my money back and didn’t even stay the night because my safety felt at risk more than once in 5 minutes.

Disliked: Amenities
We found 3 roaches. Hair dryer didn’t work, no biggie on that, the room smelled sooo bad and was moist.
It needs work, very old paneling door jams are tore up from matinee fixing it many times, people passing by outside banging on glass/ no security!! Lets people sit in cars and play their car radios all nite loudly/ no security!
We arrived around 8:30 am even though checkin was at 3:00pm they let us xheckin early. A little extra fee. Not bad worth it as we drove 8n bad weather all the way there. I took a couple hour nap. We were already to go sight seeing and do my business in which I came for. Thank you for your help.
Water was red when first turning on the shower. Loud garbage pickup ~4:30 am Saturday morning. Room smelled musty (like old 70s wooden paneling) but looked clean. Nice river view at the back of the property.
This hotel was supposed to be all newly renovated rooms. It was not! The rooms still had the old 70s wood paneling walls and old 70s stained furniture. Old stained rickety bathrooms horrible uncomfortable beds and this thin bed cover that was more like a sheet than a blanket. Not surprisingly I was attacked by bed bugs on my stay here. Got bit all over and had to leave my luggage outside when I got home so I could clean and sterilize everything one at a time before bringing back in my house so I didn’t carry bed bugs in my house.
