Good price for the quality
We enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and well kept. There was a lot of light outside, so it was hard to get the room dark enough for good sleep, but it was also a comfort for security. We recommend a room further from the highway. Lots of traffic noise through the night, but overall, we were happy with our stay.

Good place to rest your head
I only had two issues. The AC was kind of noisy and the room felt like it was damp. Everything had a damp feeling to it.

Would stay again!
Overall my stay was fine. The rooms are a little dated but they were clean and comfortable with good cold AC. The staff was very accommodating. Special shout out to Beth as I had a bit of a situation and without hesitation she helped me to remedy it. Thank you Beth. Easy access as your able to pull up right in front of your room so you don't have to be touring luggage far.

Place to sleep, don’t expect anything nice.
Bed and pillows were uncomfortable. Room was Ok, but bathroom light didn’t work unless you tapped on the bulb, blanket had cigarette holes in it, toilet was loose and sat weird in the floor.

Not great but is fine if you’re really just looking for somewhere to sleep. Seemed like a safe enough area. Super outdated and things definitely don’t get cleaned very often. Saw the cleaners stripping beds in other rooms prior to my check out and all they clean on the beds is the sheet. Beds were decently comfortable. Most lightbulbs were either blown or the whole light flickered.
