Its hard to find a cheap hotel that makes you worry when statung there because its either ghetto or dirty but i was very happy with the stay the only thing i could complain about was that the television was kinda small and like most bathrooms they have that garbage design that has one knob. Other than that the staffin the morning and at midnight were friendly. The beds were comfortable and the floor was clean unlike alot of hotels.

Courteous staff, okay experience. I realize the place isn't new but could use some updating. However, for the price, I'd say it was equal to expectancy. The mini fridge looked to be really old but worked. The bathroom light/fan was so loud it could wake the dead. Positives... USB port lamps, new flooring & TV + clean upon arrival. Hope this constructive criticizism is helpful.

Bathroom doorknob turned around and around from inside the bathroom without opening the door. Had my husband been alone, he would have been stuck in the bathroom. We had to leave the door standing open the rest of our two night stay. Black dust on ceiling near the ceiling fan and on the ceiling fan vent in the bathroom. Floor was not clean. Mattress and pillows were very comfortable.

I don't think I have ever stayed in a dirtier place. We got in super late and we had to leave very early so we didn't really have much of an option but i would never stay there again or recommend it. Stained sheets, hair innthe bed and tub. Shower had not been cleaned in years, paint peeling in tub, water dripping from the shower. Blood on the wall near the toilet. Honestly it was a nightmare. I checked for bed bugs and saw no signs. It was the only reason we crashed. Lady at the front desk was polite at check in.

The AC ran cold but a little loud as an older model, a little musty smelling. Honestly, it was really clean, the room and the whole property. It was very quiet and very affordable. In the morning, when I saw the number of cars in the parking lot, I was even more impressed because I never heard a soul during the night. All guests and staff were so respectful of other guests.

Room was rough, cigarette butts under bed, trash from previous guests. There was hair that did not belong to me or the other guest in our bed when we turned down the blanket. Light switch by door did not turn on any lights in the room….

Bathroom could have been cleaner. Towels and linens were stained. Chairs not comfortable for watching TV. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have a table with 2 chairs.
