    There are roaches and fleas. Not in every room, but a lot of them.

    It’s close to the road The whole place smells like smoke and random people keep walking around. The bathroom was not clean. The toilet was not clean. You can see visible dirt, the room keep lacking itself. And a whole smells overall very dirty and the place is old.

    The woman cleaning the room next door was yelling and cussing on her phone so loudly that I could hear her conversation clearly. The bed was lumpy and the sheets and blankets looked like they had been used and just pulled back on the bed. The sink handle to the hot water fell off and the water never got hot, barely lukewarm. The toilet was shaky and you had to hold the handle to flush it completely. The tub was dirty. There was still hair in the drain and tub left from the prior people. The water never got hot.

    Location There were police at the hotel initially when we arrived. The room was disgusting with garbage left in thr bathroom, the TV was not worrying, which i called the front desk and his response was "Sorry they're nothing i can do. " so we didn't have TV the whole time. Also thr phone had no cord and had to use my cell phone to call the front desk. Lastly there were people "living there" which were sketchy individuals and smelled like pot the whole entire place. Of and the cops can AGAIN that night! It was awful!!!!!!

    The location is perfect. No fence. Many people are able to come to this location and not pay for a room and party do illegal drugs in the open like the stairs

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was the graduation week and our booking that we booked 3 months before cost us $90. Immediately after cancellation their relisted our room for $260. Total scammers. Their phone number they list is a cell phone number that goes straight to a voicemail. Avoid.

    Many unsavory characters out at all hours.. doing drugs and drinking. Woman screamed profanities at 3am at another guest. I had a few creepy men roaming around the door of my room. I felt like I was going to be assaulted and robbed of my belongings.

    Quiet Found bed bugs

    When I got there in the lobby. I had an issue with my checking in. When finally checked in and in the room I couldn't get the TV to program to watch some TV. Also when trying to use the microwave I found a plate of food. From a previous guest. To me the room was halfway cleaned.And it smelt like heavy smoke in this non smoking room.The room looked like nothing what the picture was on the website. The only thing that was convenient was it was close to where my husband's appointment for his procedure and close to the interstate to go back home.

    Defend for the price. Great location and staff is always friendly. They don’t do a small breakfast or even coffee

    Fairley close to where we needed to be. We arrived after 9p as we stated. There was a handwritten note on the door that our reservation was cancelled since they didn't have any rooms for us. Why make a reservation if you don't honor it? They put us in a room that the TV didn't work. WOW not only did the TV not work but the heater did not work, and the wall socket was scorched black. The tile floor was covered with throw rugs since the floor had buckled and was cracking up as a result of a ceiling water leak in the bathroom. They moved us the next day to another room. Interesting that there as a sink in the bathroom, that was located between the shower and the toilet, and no mirror! How are you supposed to see your face when you want to shave? The coffee machine in the room was missing pieces so you couldn't make any coffee. The heater and TV worked in this room. Management gave us an extra night at no charge, woo hoo. This operator should be required to bring the facility up to far better standards then what it has been allowed to operate at. Room 134 was our original room.

    several gaping openings around door

    I don’t like anything because when I came to check in they have sold my room. I hate this hotel. I paid the room rate before I came but they sold my room. We couldn’t find any room in the middle of the night and looking around They canceled our room without notification.

    I made a reservation and when i got there it was sold out. Tbe clerk was rude. That i made a reservation and no rooms were available. The clerk was ruxe and walked away while i was talking...

  • Engine customer May 2026

    It was good as far as cleaning and maintenance goes, but they can’t help the people who choose to stay there, and it was a decent experience overall, but it would have been better if the other tenants weren’t outside acting like they had no sense. Kinda uncomfortable being around them.

    Beware… any favorable reviews of this establishment are most likely posted in a fraudulent attempt to overshadow the negative reviews. The room smelled of heavy cigarette smoke, the walls were dirty, fixtures look like they hadn’t been dusted in over 8 months; stained comforters and carpet; spider web in the corner; thin mattress on one bed. The heating /AC unit had very dirty coils and there was a mold stain on the ceiling. The microwave was missing its turn table and the refrigerator needed to be defrosted 6 months ago. Not sure of the safety at the location either. We were awakened at 2 am by someone shouting. Really check ALL the reviews before staying here.

    Room cleaned after I reached the hotel and kept me waiting for 15 Minute for cleaning even though it's pre booked. Toilet seats were dirty and not cleaned even after informing the team. Coffee machine was utter waste, the disposable cups were old and blackish spots in it. Coffee was horrible. Waste bin should be cleaned by us. They won't do it. Towels we need to replace each time by going to the reception and ask. It was a horrible stay here.
