The staff was very friendly and helpful. We wanted an inexpensive hotel for a good nights sleep. That’s what we got. Could smell pot outside and it lingered in on those who were smoking it.

I'd like to start off by saying that both Tim & Jamy who took care of our check-in and the majority of our stay! They amazing! I've never met such hard working, kind, quick to respond and nicer people! They never turned away from doing their best to make a guest happy! Kudos to them! As far as the hotel itself, it could use some up grades, maybe an elevator for guests & a bigger parking lot. My room was clean, beds comfy, but one of the curtain drapes were missing some hooks, at least 4-5. If it wasnt for Tim & Jamy and their patience & kindness

My room was dirty, towels had stains, bathroom walls had feces smears, no hot water, room smelled very bad. Curtains and lampshade had stains on it. Lock on door didn't work well. I did not sleep well cause of it I checked out a day early. They wouldn't give me any kind of refund or apology. Expedia should be ashamed for suggesting this room to me next time I'll try Orbitz or trivago

The outside and inside were somewhat run down. There was a musty smell. The bed and the bathroom were clean. We did not care for the breakfast choices. Got up and left as soon as we could. Hotel was not completely terrible but would not stay again.

Property description was totally misleading and should be fined for false information. Property was run down. It smelled. Property stated 5 min WALK to ISU. FALSE. It also stated room service. FALSE. Not even a vending machine. Did not stay at this property felt unsafe. Area was gloomy and so was the reception area. The receptionist was the maintenance man.
