Soon as we pulled up to the property at 1:30 am we noticed a lot of people standing outside. One of those people walked up to the car to attempt a drug transaction not knowing who we were. There was noise and traffic throughout the night which made it impossible to sleep. Lastly the room had fleas

Easy to access A little pricey for location but still decent

The place is a dump. Not very well kept up. They advertised a "Free Breakfast"...but the only things available were bowls of Raisin Bran & Fruit Loops, warm milk, juoce, and lousy coffee. That does not even come close to constituting what a Breakfast should be. That was a very pitiful offering...The worst hotel Breakfast I've ever experienced anywhere in the world in my 80 years. ... They should be ashamed of yourselves. There was no bread for toast, or bagels, or croissants, no oatmeal, no pancakes, and eggs, hash browns, and sausage were nowhere to be seen. The desk clerk and a guy that said he was a manager were indignant when I complained and said that their claim of a "Free Breakfast" was false advertising. I asked for a partial refund of between $12-15 to cover the cost of Breakfast elsewhere, but was laughed at to my face..They said that they were just a small motel and could not afford to put out full Breakfasts like Holiday Inn and the Hiltons of the world do. Very very pathetic... I wouldn't let my dog stay there...

Overall it was a decent, secure and comfortable place for a night and the staff was exceptional, however when I took a shower, the shower head fixture sprung a leak suddenly and started spraying everywhere on to the hardwood tile which could have been a safety hazard considering there was no shower mat and for some reason, the water also smelled like a really bad smell bad which made for an unpleasant experience but I did mention it to the owner or manager when I was checking out and he apologized and offered to give me a partial refund which I refuse because that’s not really something he anticipated. The only other thing negative I would say is that it just does not feel like the safest place and I actually even had someone knock on my door at 3 AM and then come back around in an hour and knock again which was a little scary but overall, it was a decent experience and a good night sleep for the most part. I don’t know if they served breakfast or not. It was not mentioned to me on check in but but i think the comfy bed and the friendly staff went a long way toward making it and already good value. I would stay there again, but it would not be my first choice.

Disappointing

Burns in the linens traffic in and out all night..prowlers,,seems lots of young people Living on the property everything there is outdated,,we went because everything else was fully booked and just to lay our head for sleep I will not ever stay again definitely not worth the money you hear arguments all night doors wide open with chairs on porch like they live there if you like the hood well there it is! A BIG NO!! Pool small and dirty and green

Heater didn’t work at all
