2/10 Terrible

Kylee

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was ok just couldn’t completely understand what he was saying. Got our room and no outlets worked. There was no shower head but the water worked. We went back down to the office to ask for another room and got it. There was a shower head but no working water and there was also a roach beside the bed. Apparently dogs are allowed and cats are not but we saw a cat in one of the room windows. We couldn’t get a refund either so $140 down the drain.

I didn't expect a resort experience at this price point, but this fell far below what it should have been. The previous guests' trash was piled in a corner and left for me to deal with. No towel, just a bathmat. Light bulbs missing. Light switches installed upside down. Popcorn spackling sprayed over switches and outlets. Bathroom floor pealing up. I booked two nights, but I didn't stay the second.

Will not return

Very noisy. On the window side of the room there is a main route one the entrance side of the room the hotel owners were very loud and you could hear them talking as their whole family lived in the motel and used the covered walkway to do their visiting and they also blocked the walkways in doing so and they even cooked their meals on a propane stove in the walkway. Not a good experience and will not return. They also charged more for the room than the quoted charge from Hotels.com.

Troubled neighbors

Check in was very smooth. The room was clean but sparse. This was a very last minute booking as I drove till I was tired and then looked to see what was available at my current location. Upon finding my room I was right next to what I thought was the teenagers room of a family and Dad was checking in on them as I arrived. All was well till about 11 pm then I heard fighting next door and the sound of someone being slammed against the wall. "The Dad" appeared at their door and one of them was escorted out to the car that was in front of my ground floor room's window. They stayed out there talking till 2 am then drove off. "The Mom" was heard saying that they have left and the rest of them should go to sleep. This left me with a very restless sleep worrying that, in anger, the other one might attempt a drive by shooting or something. I'll remind the reader that I'm only describing them as my 1st impression. I have no idea as to actual relationship of these people. I left at 6 am trying to get out, before that neighbor chaos started back up. None of this is the lodges fault, but the experience will stop me from returning.

Dirtiest motel I have ever stayed in. Dried feces, vomit and possibly blood on walls around toilet. The smell of wet shower and mold permeatedmtue air. It was well lit, quiet and in a good location. The bed was reasonably comfortable.

It wasn’t a terrible place for a last minute stay, the staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is rundown and needs updating. Our room wasn’t dirty persay but it was dingy, the blanket had holes in it the walls had holes in them and the shower was mildewy and just bleh. It was ok for like a night we ended up leaving early though. Probably wouldn’t stay here again if I had other options.

I accidentally booked the wrong nights for another hotel, so I booked this place as a last resort thinking it’d be better than sleeping in my Suburban. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

This motel was ok for a one night stay as a traveler passing through. The staff was pleasant and assisted willingly when I needed help turning on the shower. The hotel had a decent looking paint job outside but the room was very old and tired looking. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were terrible. Sometimes it's hard to tell if old things are clean but I think the room was basically clean. Appliances and a/c worked fine.

Hidden fees. I got charged an extra $20 after i booked the room. The first hour we were there i wanted to leave. I felt very u comfortable there. The shower door was shattered it was not a very good night to say the least. If i had known what i was going to be staying in i would have chose somewhere else or stayed in the car.

Not bad

Wasn't bad for the price. Great location for the event I attended. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Only thing I had an issue with was people screaming/slamming doors in the middle of the night and then again early AM. But it's not the hotel's fault if customers act that way.
