Theresa

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Outside access doors open all night. Tiny square pillows (3 on a king size bed) Lights not working at all. Room half remolded lol...not even fully painted. Mold on showerhead...rust on ceiling. Hairs in the bed. Literally not a coffee cup to be found anywhere or coffee pot. NO HEAT in rooms so you cant even sit and watch tv. Property is barely lit. Ceilings are falling in the halls. Room doors barely shut and you can hear everything... Honestly no tell motel would be a better description and it should be 1/4 of what they charged. Shame. Its a beautiful property.

We had a non smoking room that smelled really bad of cigarettes and weed. The hall smell was overpowering. The room is dated but I can work with that. There was cigarette burns in the counter and the bedding. The price was good but I would never go back.

No frills but good value

Nice size room with a separate couch for TV watching and desk for those in need. It was a "no frills" motel with no breakfast being included. The room was a bit dated, but clean with no cigarette smell in the air (it was a no smoking room). We recommend adding a bath mat and bar to the bath/shower to make it safer to take a shower. We also recommend adding a TV guide to each room to assist with navigating the various available channels.
