Not to shabby I guess

It was alright, clean for the most part. A little old, at least the room I stayed in was. I was I room 30. But we also were late to check out and they were lenient. The second day they weren’t and kicked us out but that’s my own fault. We stayed up late so we ended up waking up late. But overall it was cool.

It reminds me of a motel. Very noisy Room was clean but the bathroom just looked old the toilet had a push button on top was green did not flush well. The parking lot was small and a hump that hit the car really hard it would have been nice if it was smooth.the guy got us early check in that was nice but no personality not wanting to help, would say it’s close no input at all did not want to be bothered The good was they had free coffee in the check out area. Maybe a 11/2 Starr not impressed at all for they money you pay I would have rather paid a little me for a better hotel

I wasn’t allowed to cancel my booking last night or this morning it wasn’t even a option on the Expedia site and then when I tried asking Expedia they said it was the responsibility of me and the hotel but when I contacted the hotel I was told to go through Expedia to cancel the booking so I was just being lied to by both parties I had to cancel because of bad weather

Great stay, great price

I loved everything about my stay. The front desk staff was so friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean and comfortable. It was quiet enough for me to get good rest. The bed was big and comfy. The shower was perfect. There was plenty of parking. The prices were super reasonable. I would 100% stay here again!

Pretty affordable, decent place, for needing a roof over your head passing through town, with some sight seeing. The remodel looks really good. Easy and friendly check in
