Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was very outdated and grungy feeling. Dirty microwave, hair and dust on the floor trim, very worn towels and sticky carpet. One desk guy was none too welcoming, the other was very friendly. It was inexpensive in comparison to other hotels in the area but as they say, “you get what you pay for “!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room had a surprising amount of open floor space, which our family greatly appreciated after a long day in our vehicle. A goodly number of power outlets, easy to access. No breakfast, but we'd brought picnic fixings with us and were flexible. The night clerk was quick and professional. Not chatty, but not unfriendly. Ditto when he also checked us out in the morning. Some guests were noisy around midnight (Sat. night / Sun. morning), and we heard some firecrackers go off in the parking lot, but that was the only disturbance and quickly ended. (I did not feel unsafe.)

NEVER AGAIN! Possibly Never CHOICE BRAND

They charge $100 deposit for "Essentials" when they have NO "Essentials". Then when I was to check out and get my $100 back they were not "in the Office" The carpets have not bee vacuumed since 1986. 15" toilets? Was this built before the Civil War? Slept OK, Music was OK, but overall this place is not worth being a consideration for anyone with expectation of a decent place.
