Not the best but Melinda made it worth the stay

Roaches in my room which smelled of weed so strongly that I had to leave the door open, the AC unit on high and the bathroom ventilation on for hours. Melinda was excellent as she provided a cleaning product that cleared the weed smell after being applied. A can of disinfectant helped as well. Melinda was always making sure to check if anything was needed during my stay. She also helped with getting my brother's room ready as it hadn't been completed when expected at 2:30.

Stay away - Hotel of Horrors

This place must be shutting down because the owners have definitely given-up on the upkeep. I should have known when I checked in during the daytime and the lobby was not open. I had to check in at a window. The lobby was never open. This is a one-night stay and I almost left that same night. It was horrible! Here is the bullet list of reasons: > Weird smells. I brought in a scented candle to burn. > No working heat and temps in low 40's that night (owner brought in a portable heater that night that did the job) > Stained pillows & bed linens - you don't want details, trust me! > Only 1 cheap flat standard pillow per Queen bed > No extra blankets plus I really didn't want to use stained blanket on bed so I had to use a small fleece throw blanket i brought for a Christmas present. > Two cheap thin towels and no hand towels at all. > The only sink was clogged terribly with hair! The only good thing was there was hot water when I took a shower and that was a welcomed blessing. If I have to be in that area again, I'm not staying here or at any other hotel in the area.

Terrible Management - Cancelled During Hurricane

I booked to escape Hurricane Milton. I couldn't make it there the first night of my stay, they called me, and I could not promise I would be there that night, as I was helping other people. They then cancelled the rest of my booking, without telling me. Then I was left to fend for myself, during a hurricane. In talking to management, it was obvious, there was a language and cultural barrier, but I did not expect there to be a humanitarian barrier.

Clean but no frills.

The room was updated and clean, the AC adequate, a little humid. Advertised as having a microwave but there was none. There was also no WiFi , which was not divulged at time of check-in. As with some other chains, there is no coffee in the lobby, no toiletries. Next door is a Starbucks and Waffle House with internet and breakfast.
