Place is more like low rent apartments. No ice machine, no vending, rooms are outdated (even though remodeled) more than half the rooms are lived in full time.

Full disclosure: There is room for improvement, and they are fixing the place up. Their price, courtesy, and professionalism more than made up for a noisy toilet (just kept the bathroom door closed) or the iron burn on the carpet. They are renovating a few rooms at a time, and I will be happy to stay there again next time I'm in town.

I paid for room and continental breakfast but when I checked in the two ladies at the reception told me they stopped serving breakfast last week. The ladies were very nice and welcoming so I did not want to argue, since it was obviously not their decision, but the owner's. The toilet in my room began backflowing, not very nice. On the other hand, the rate was cheap, and I just needed a place to sleep for the night, and I did.

You get what you paid for, wasn’t expecting much but me and my wife slept so comfortable and water was nice and hot, only complaint was that I couldn’t find the remote but I was only there to sleep. I would stay again in the future.

When we arrived at the hotel about 6:00 pm the lobby was locked and there was a note saying be back soon. When we checked in the room was dirty. There was hair in the bed. The bed itself was so uncomfortable I didn't sleep at all. The bathroom was dingy. Throughout the night people were yelling outside the door. Not a good experience at all.

This was a low rate motel so I knew it wasn't a 4 star but it was way more ghetto than I thought. It had roaches and I wasn't even given a fresh clean towel or soap in the room. I had to ask there desk clerk for it as they did not have it provided up front. The bed sheets were not cleaned even and I had to ask them to please replace. Overall, I am very dissatisfied with the grounds, housekeeping and overall cleanliness. The staff were nice though

One of the worst hotels I have stayed at in years! Between trash in the room, no toliet paper, TV inoperable, potholes in parking lot and breakfast that was a complete waste of time plus it did not start until 8:30 AM.

This is the most disgusting place we have ever stayed. >Lousy door lock. Only a dead bolt and had to shove on the door to get it open. No night security latch. >No ice machine. Had to buy a bag of ice from the store down the street. >Poorly maintained parking lot. Huge pothole in center. Car up on blocks behind strip mall but in motel area. >Almost abandoned strip mall in front. >No access to pool except through lobby and lobby locked many times during the day and nobody there. >No door on bathroom. >Dirty threadbare carpet. >Stained couch. >No remote for TV. Maintenance brought one. >No coffee maker. Ditto above. >No chairs at kitchen table. >Stove was not plugged in. Had to crawl under sink to plug in. >Nobody in office at check out so could not try the breakfast. >Telephone would only work from one jack near couch. >Paint residue in sink from painter. >Entire area was littered with cigarette butts and dog poop. >Smokers outside made lots of stink.

While this is an older property, it is neat, clean, and well maintained. I felt very safe here. The staff was wonderful. When we asked about a place for dinner, she said there were several within walking distance; what did we like. After a short discussion, she suggested a Korean Restaurant. Great food. We would definitely stay here again.
