While the gentleman on duty was extremely nice and welcoming, there was nothing else good about this place. In disrepair and questionable in all regards. The carpet was damp, the paint peeling, mold, and overall sketchy. If you can afford the extra 30 or 40 bucks, do yourself a favor and go with a known HOTEL chain. Lesson learned: I will never look for “a cheap place to crash” again.

It was very affordable, convenient to 75. Frig and MW provided. Personnel was professional and helpful, they came to open the office within minutes after ringing the bell. The beds were comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. The facility was older and though clean, fixtures were rusted. Wall unit and frig were noisy. Could hear TV and clear conversation from adjoining room. TV was in room, but no remote. Ice container and plastic liner provided, but couldn’t find ice maker anywhere. Overall, I got what I paid for. A good night’s rest and shower, a frig to keep my ice chest contents cold, but no frills.

The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff was nice. But rooms have adjoining doors (which you can lock) which leads to no sound insulation. The guy in the next room to me started screaming at 2am. When he stopped he turned the tv on all night long.

Not a five star hotel by any means but a five star review due to friendly helpful staff and clean room. Rooms and property are a little shabby and very dated, but for the price the place is comfortable and staff fully serviced the room each night. If I come back to the area I will stay here again.

It's a 1 star hotel but no one told them that. They operate their little place with pride and hospitality. For the price, it can't be beat. Unfortunately, I've paid twice as much and received half the quality. I'm definitely going to be staying here again.
