Melissa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff was wonderful but the rooms are very dirty. Walls have food and greenies all over. Bathroom was in serious need of some TLC and paint. Hallways to upstairs and downstairs are in some very poor condition. Walls and doors need to be cleaned. 2nd floor ice machine had chew in it.

The Mexican restaurant is outstanding and my room was ultra quiet. Very pleasant and comfortable stay
Laura, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We were only there to sleep, so did not use the other amenities. Room condition was okay. The bathroom was pretty run down with rust visible on the vanity. The pictures look much better online! The bed was comfortable, so that’s a plus.
Addison, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Staff were really friendly. However, the property is lacking. Very outdated. No elevator. Stairwell door to get to up/down was jammed so had to go around to other side in order to gain access up and down. Rooms were stale and being was old and worn. Air conditioning had difficulty keeping up.
2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The hotel didnt feel clean at all, splatters on the wall/door, no mattress protector on the bed, small bug (not BB) on the mattress and the AC wasn't working. Wasn't great...not terrible but not great.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location & customer service. Rooms need a good cleaning and possibly an update on the beds & couch mattress. Room was missing a microwave.
Debra, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay for child entertainment!

I loved the room, besides the bathroom. The bathroom seemed permanently dirty. I loved how spacious the room was and the bed/pillows were amazing. It also smelled a bit of weed down our hallway not that that was in your control.
