The room, there was spot painted and not, then you cant close the door to the king room, the air flow sucks even with the fan on. It just looked sloppy for being remodled. Very disappointing.

We enjoyed our time at the property, it was nice clean and the breakfast was good! The front office staff was pleasant and informative. We thought the beds and linens were extra comfortable! The only problem we had was with the tv, we could not cast or stream any app. That was unfortunate but overall we would stay there again😊

Repairs needed and better cleaning

Rooms were dirty with actual garbage. TV didn't work. Toilet clogged in multiple rooms. Mold in bathroom. Lamp rusty. Celing falling down in bathroom. Hair in drawers, and not the ones from your head. Hair in sheets.

The property was in major disrepair in all areas of the building. The hallways smelled like cigarette smoke. The worst was both beds sheets were full of random hairs. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until my child was husband were already asleep. I hated to wake them up to move them to another hotel. If it wasn’t for this we would have left. We wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone.
