Our stay was nice. The room was clean. The beds were the only disappointment. They were very hard and uncomfortable. They seemed smaller than a queen.

A real pleasant surprise. This is an older hotel but it has been redone and it was an excellent job. Very clean and well appointed. Staff was very helpful.
James, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Sketchier than expected.

Pretty rough for the price. First room had pee and blood(?) stains on the sheets. Plenty of hair and dirt on the floor. One other room had a plastic bag over the smoke alarm. Front desk was helpful, but at the end of the day this felt a lot sketchier than the price would have suggested. Also: no airport shuttle, “been years”

Laine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff, rough rooms.

Always good service. Josh is usually at the front desk when I check in. Always accommodates me and my need for an outside room. On a different note, my rooms are rarely clean, always have food left over in the fridge and more often than not a toilet is not working in my rooms. Ive had to switch several times. Showers have been out of order before, heaters not working, etc. it was the only option allowed by my company for me to use on my route otherwise I would have stayed somewhere else for almost $100 a night. Hopefully the new GM can get it under control.

Room was disgusting. Not vacuumed, tub and sink were smeared with who knows what, hairs on the toilet and poop streaks in the bowl. Crumb, dirt, and hairs in the bed. Dirt streaks in the bed and stinky pillow cases. Hard to get a hild if front desk. Broken lamp, webs an build up around the heater.
