It was nice and all but the heater didn’t work and the tv didn’t have cable 😅 but other than that it was alright lol
Very friendly staff. The room was immaculately clean. I highly recommend this property. This is my third stay for work, and I will definitely be staying here again for work related purposes.
It was an easy, friendly, and reasonably priced for our needs and I would return to this location the next time I am in the area. The room was set up nicely, clean, and spacious.

The hotel allows smoking. Strong smell of pot and cigarettes. Slamming doors and loud voices. It appeared that the staff didn’t care about the general chaos. I would not stay there again. Seriously, I think a motel 6 is a step up.

Someone came to my room while I was there in the middle of the night, it was very frightening, this was the worst experience ever, thank God I am safe. They must double check who they give rooms to, bc someone will get hurt.
