Pictures DO NOT represent rooms. Outdated like 1965 , outdated. Broken, smelly completely rundown. Hotel shuttle drivers are not friendly, but get the job done efficiently enough

Everything excellent, except that the walls are "motel 6 thin" so any noise from neighbors is easily detected (woke up at 3am due to a neighbor's snoring; loud enough to slow down getting back to sleep).

Was generally okay for the most part. The room smelled of cannabis upon arrival and was told I could get room service on whatever day I asked. I asked twice and they never came to service the room even after reminders to the staff. During my week stay the room was not serviced once.

It’s not fancy, but it’s clean and functional, and what is functional is beautiful! The bed was very comfortable and the room was very quiet despite being near the airport. I especially enjoyed the shower as the shampoo, conditioner and body wash were clearly marked and easily accessible and the floor of the shower was textured to prevent slipping. I rarely find these things in hotels. Lite who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. The grounds are pretty and well- maintained. I would stay here again!

Bug problem

There were ants EVERYWHERE. I am trying to get the ants out of my luggage right now. We noticed them when first on the bathroom sink. It was too late to ask the front to change rooms because my son was already asleep. When we woke up this morning they were in the shower, in the coffee maker. I am unpacking at home now and there are ants all over our clothes. I have video of them in the room but only got the two pictures. I want my money back.
