Photos must be from 10years ago or something because our room was an absolute abomination. Molded bathroom walls, shower head covered in stone, there was a hole in the wall under the shower head where water was coming out! Toilet seat broken, cabinet door fell off, definitely wasn’t cleaned because I stepped into something sticky on the carpet, and I found a bottle cap on the floor right next to the chair… do not come to this filthy and stanky crack house. I can’t even call this an inn or motel. At least the front desk person was nice. Which you have to call every time because the office is always closed and nobody is there. Avoid this place at all costs. I wouldn’t stay here even if you’d pay me to.

The property manager was friendly and very helpful. The property was okay for the price but we did kill 1 cockroach in our room. Hopefully they get pest control out there before it becomes an issue.

It’s a good value

The hotel was clean and cozy, but it was a bit dated and the tv didn’t work, however it was a good value for the money.
