Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This property was terrible. Bugs were on the walls, in the AC unit, under the beds and all over the floor. It was so bad that we left 5 minutes after arriving. I reported this to the front desk and left. I did not get any refund. No one should ever stay here

The overall outside appearance of this property was run down, the building, parking lot and landscaping. In side our room, our bathroom door would not close or shut properly. The air conditioner had accumulated a large puddle right under it, which seemingly has been causing the cheap laminate flooring to start stripping, warping and coming apart. And our entire bedding set was very wet when we laid down, the front desk brought new linen, overall not a very nice place

Stayed here for two nights and as we were checking out we noticed cockroaches crawling around from under the bed and under the TV stand. Talked to the front desk woman this morning and she said there’s “nothing she can do”, yet would still talk to the other people in the back about issuing a refund. Haven’t heard anything back though, of course. They were crawling all around our stuff so now we will have to clean all of that out. Absolutely disgusting. Do NOT stay here.

In town for Morgan Wallen concert and stayed at this hotel. It was great for what we needed it for. The room was a little banged up and could use a fresh coat of paint but it was great for us for the price.

Absolutely Not! Don’t Stay Here!!!!
It really bothers me to have leave a negative review but honesty will help you improve. This hotel should not even be open. Period. The room smells stale & old. The covers (all) smell old and dusty. The lamp shades are molded and rotted out. The leather on the desk chair is peeling completely off. There are splatter stains on the bathroom wall. There are cracks in the wall and the paint is peeling in the bedroom area. I laid my shirt over the pillowcase so my face didn’t touch it. I truly felt itchy all night. Nothing was biting me, I checked, it was just the dusky, mildew, staleness of the room. I will never stay at this hotel, or another of its kind, ever again. This was the first and last! Please spend the time and money it takes to become a safe, reputable place. It will benefit you in the long run. All the best!

Staff was nice. Facility was older, which isn’t a big deal, but felt neglected. Had a lot of air freshener smells covering up funky smells. Our first room had ac leak, floor was wet underneath. They moved us to another room. Saw two little cockroaches in bathroom. Didn’t feel very clean.
