More for Workers, Less for Travelers

The stay was acceptable, but I would not choose to return. While the hotel has been updated with fresh paint, it still feels dated overall. It appears to cater primarily to work crews, as evidenced by the numerous construction vehicles on-site. There were also several guests sitting outside their rooms in camping chairs, smoking, which made the atmosphere feel less comfortable. Additionally, the room would benefit from a thorough deep cleaning. The front desk woman was very kind and professional.

Wet catpet,

We arrived late and the room had a terrible smell. We turned on the ac hoping that would help. After unpacking we got ready for bed and discovered that the carpet was drenched. The next morning we told the front desk clerk that the floor was soaked and were told that all the rooms were like that because of the air conditioning. We had a second stay scheduled on our return trip and tried to cancel it but the hotel wouldn't cancel our second stay. They lied and blamed hotels.com for not allowing the cancelation. Hotels.com spent three days trying to convince the property to cancel our next reservation, but they refused.

This is a playbook of what a budget hotel is to be like, clean, comfortable, well maintained, plenty of tv channels, a nice pool area, (I didn’t use) nor did I go for breakfast. I spent 2 nights and I wish other hotels in budget friendly price range would be like this Quality Inn!! Definitely a first choice if in this area.
