    Very retro property meaning it’s all original and very outdated but at least clean and friendly in our one night experience. Decent value with no real complaints.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Outdoor pool was clean. Breakfast is basic: cereal, bagels, toast, premade breakfast sandwiches. That was fine for us. Only thing that was strange was that the day after we arrived and went out for the day, upon our return, we realized our room was tidied up. Not a big deal but after one night is not the norm I’ve experienced at other hotels.

    The most unfriendly staff! Took $200 in case of incidentals but couldn't say when the money would be returned. Not even a sliver of soap in the room was given to wash your hands. I would NOT recommend this place!!

    My wife and I were traveling and having the time of our life. Staff couldn’t have been more rude…completely changed the whole vibe with a hostile and negative attitude for no apparent reason. I understand people have bad days but I suspect this person has a lot of them. I think people in the hospitality business should know when employees or even owners are less than kind to travelers … I would not stay here again!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It's not fancy but it does the trick. Stayed an extra day because I thought it was a good deal. Lots of extra pillows was nice. I would stay again.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    We were not aware ther was a $200 deposit expected for each room booked. A lot of the things in the hotel had price tags, inferring that if damaged they would charge you to replace the items. We felt like we had to be extra careful not to touch anything.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Coffee was remarkably good, but no fruit for breakfast.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was an ok stay. The room could've been cleaner and the breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. But for the money it was fine.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    DO NOT STAY HERE , it is an old supper 8 very old! Had half of the room go black, Called the front desk they didn’t answer. Had to call the reservation number that I had to get them to answer the phone. He knew exactly what the problem was, but didn’t tell us about the situation before we got into the room.. then we had a mouse in our room. It crawled up the phone cord about 6 inches from my head before the mouse saw me and took off. We saw the mouse several times after that. Then at the nighttime I had the mouse crawl on my bed when we went to check out I thought they might compensate me in someway for the mouse, and they did not. I was quite upset with the whole situation.. the breakfast I wouldn’t eat it and there were homeless people in there helping themselves PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE!

    Also charged $250 for incidentals that doesn’t get returned to card for three days. Told this after booking room and can’t get refund.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Really good for the cost

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Exactly what I was looking for! Safe and clean spot to sleep.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The room was clean, the bed and pillows super comfortable. Really nice outdoor pool!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The property is aging, but well cared for. It was clean and exactly what we expected based on other reviews and the price.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Old style, non-chain, motel. Clean, friendly staff, large rooms. Good continental breakfast.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Started only one night but it was a good stay. No issues and good location close to stores and restaurants.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Place was rundown overall. We booked a no smoking room but the whole hallway smelt like smoke. Old carpets, old bathtubs. Just felt dirty to us.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Good morning. Good afternoon. Great service.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was a decent price for a night stay. It was clean. I don’t like that they pre charge for any damage but it will get refunded. The description said queen size bed but it seemed smaller than a queen. Breakfast was ok, not a lot of options. Not much lighting in the room, felt very dark especially with the aesthetic of the room. Very dated.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    We had bugs coming out of our sink, they tried to handl eit quickly, but they kept coming back. The armchair in our room was filthy. This was the lowest acceptable room I could have stayed in. I should have checked out.
