This facility claimed it was smoke free, but it smelled like cigarettes. Parking was a challenge on one of the nights.

Disliked: Amenities
Water pressure is great and my room was clean. There was an issue with the window not closing so I heard a lot more noise than normal. There was also an annoying constant clicking sound coming from the ceiling but I had the top floor…hard to sleep through. Everything else was ok…can’t expect much for $97/night

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room door lock was damaged. It was very difficult to lock the door. The problem was when you forced the door to lock you would also need to exert a lot of force to unlock it and might even end up getting locked inside the room. I brought this up to the front desk and asked for another room since I didn’t feel safe sleeping with only the top latch in place because that can be unlatched. The Hispanic guy said he all rooms were booked and couldn’t help me. He didn’t offer any discounts for the inconvenience. Also there were ants in the bathroom. In addition the room smelled musty and the appliances were old. Won’t stay there again.

Was in town for a funeral. It was alright. A little dtaed on furniture but it was clean. Fyi each room has a 200.00 refundable deposit. Not bad but we had multiple rooms and wasnt aware they would have that charge initially. All in all it was alright.

In terms of affordability this is the best you’ll get for this price point. They try to “act” like a real hotel in terms of towel service, customer service etc. parking is free. Breakfast is the same everyday and is ok. Pancakes, hash browns (overdone) scrambled egg and sausage. No fruit or veggies offered. Cereal and juice available. Orange juice tastes a bit off. Our room was big and spacious with a full size fridge that had leaked water inside fridge. Beautiful property with lots of lush green landscape and a pool. You need to request house keeping or your room will not be cleaned. You can ask for additional towels at the front desk. Our room had a slight smell. And the back of the property where the parking area is smelled as well. The deposit was a bit high 200. Anthony was very nice and let me know checkout/room went smoothly. For a two star motel I highly recommend this property for long term and short term stay.

Area around the hotel seemed a little sketchy. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Shower had zero pressure and lighting was dim around the bathroom sink which was actually located in the main area (kinda weird). The room was a good size. I could tell the room was updated but also knew it was an older hotel for sure. Breakfast was a nice surprise and very good. Probably wouldn't stay here again just because there are better properties in the area in the same price range.

The property has a lot of rooms - parking is tight and the area around the hotel seemed a little sketchy. The first night I stayed in a third floor room and you could tell they tried to update but it just seemed "older". Bed was comfortable and the room was a good size with separate living area. Shower had very little pressure so that was a downside. Lighting around the sink area was pretty dim as well. Breakfast was very good and a nice surprise! The second night I stayed, I was in a ground floor room and it was in much better condition than the third floor room. Again bed was very comfy, the shower was a little better. Probably would not choose this hotel again but it was okay.
