My room had mold in the shower, the restroom was very stinky when we arrived, and the light wasn’t functioning well by the sink area. The beds were TERRIBLE quality, you can feel EVERY single spring. I traveled 16 hours to stay a night and I was not satisfied. Hopefully it can go better for everyone else.

The room was okay, it had a smell to it that wasn't great, but we were there for one night. There was loud banging most of the night and some one was running back and forth for hours at night and in the morning. The man in the office was awesome though; very kind and professional.

We had a bad time at this property. The room had a funky smell. The bathroom looked dirty. Yellow splashed stains on the walls the shower head pressure was terrible. The floor of the shower had air bubbles under it and felt unsteady and unsafe. Shower curtain had stains on it. The sink faucet sprayed water everywhere and made a mess. The mattress was so uncomfortable and very old. Wall plugs are loose. The hangers are rusted. Pillows were terrible. Thin walls could hear lots of noise from other rooms. Would not recommend to stay here.
