Disliked: Cleanliness
The room looks like it had recently been renovated but gave a dirty feeling since messes hadn't been picked up up during renovation, ie paint spots on the floors/bedding. Also had dirty towels hanging behind the bathroom door from the previous guest. The staff we did encounter were polite and accommodating.

Worst hotel ever

Arrived after 4pm, room was not ready needed to wait. The room was filthy and stunk. The tv had direct Tv and inly 1 channel worked, front desk came to check it , he couldn’t fix it and left, also there was a plastic bag taped over the smoke alarm and when I mentioned it he did t seem to care. We then told him we were not staying and wanted to cancel and get a refund.

Stone age stay

Listing indicated that there would be laundry facilities, but the very rude desk attendant declared that there were none. There was no elevator for those of my party that had accessibility needs. And the customer service agent was condescending and misogynist toward our female party members who did breakfast was also dried out and or stale

Pictures aren’t recent.

The room was so dirty. The carpet needs to be cleaned. Dirty behind end tables, bed, desk. Bathroom was ok but could tell it needed vacuumed. Space under the door. Overall it was terribly dirty.

When we arrived the room wasn’t even clean. Beds were not made, there was a super weird bike sitting in the hall and every time we walked by a guy would creep out his window. Definitely not the safest place to stay!

We were in town for a dance weekend. This place is all we are looking for. It was easy to drive to and from venue. The room was clean, truly non smoking. Needs some areas of fixing, but nothing that was an inconvenience. Breakfast was simple, and good. Located next to shopping and eating places. The price was good. Safe place.
