Perfect stop to sleep and shower. Clean, staff was very friendly. Shout out to the staff that cleans the rooms. Came back and they actually folded the extra blanket we brought from the car. Thank you again for a restful stay.

What an unsafe dump

Filthy place inside and out. Felt incredibly unsafe based on residents and area. One day my key card wasn’t working so I went to the desk and they only asked what room I was in and reactivated it. Didn’t ask who I was, no ID check, nothing. I could have told them any room I wanted to enter. Scary! Room walls were filthy, outdated, outside area unkempt, whole place smelled like weed. If my stay was longer than 2 nights I would have left and moved to another hotel. I felt like I was staying at a crackhouse. Not worth it to try to save a few bucks. Go somewhere else and pay for safety and professionalism.

The room was great. They have the necessities. The only problem was there was a chair that was not cleaned. It was so dirty. But overall if you are looking for something to stay for the night. It's mid. It's a hit or miss I guess. I didn't also stay for the night.
