Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When I got to my room it smelled like mildew and cigarettes. You can see the wall warping from the water damage. When I asked Abby for a refund he stated the manager would be in the next Sunday morning. When I called the next Sunday morning, the employee told me the manager would not be in until Tuesday. I still have not received my refund for a room I did not stay in. They had a kids party playing music and stated they would end by 11 I was there for an hour and a half the music did not end till after midnight. Very poor service here I do not recommend

The property is under construction to be fair. Otherwise it would be a very convenient hotel location. Great friendly staff. Air conditioners are old and omit a damp smell if you have allergies.

Upon arrival, we saw this facility was under construction. The room pictured online was nothing like the one we received, very misleading. It was not clean, had an odor, and was such a bad experience that we chose to not stay at all. Unfortunately all hotels in an extended proximity of this were booked, and we ended up driving home after the event we were attending in the area.
