Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We did not have an animal but we were put in a pet friendly room that stunk of dog. The carpet was filthy. There was a stain on bottom of bed that smelled of animal urine. The bathroom light/fan was falling out of ceiling and making god awful noise. Pictures werent hung on walls, just sitting on floor. Pictures from interent did not match what it really looked like inside. It stunk of stale cigarette smoke everywhere in hotel. So disappointing for the price. Front desk clerks did not even look up and acknowledge anyone walking in and out. Very impersonal. I was on the road for 12 hours that day and just wanted shower and sleep but felt dirtier and more tired when i left there. I have left a complaint on main website and of course no response. Ridiculous for that price!

The hotel was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The building inside looked a little tired. The carpets and tile, as well as the plumbing fixtures were old. Also, at check- in the staff had to be summoned by phone. That took a few minutes. A gentleman that arrived after us may have had some frustration trying to figure out the written language. I showed him the phone and to push zero. I am unsure if he was successful in securing a room.

It was just ok...
Check in was easy. Noticed the pool was out of service when we arrived; that was disappointing. Bathtub had hair in it but the room was otherwise clean. Ice machine said not working and ask for ice at front desk. Front desk said they didn't have ice. Breakfast was minimal, but we were aware of that. There was a sign saying there were strawberries and blueberries for the waffles. We asked and the employee said they hadn't had those at all while she's been working there. We also had to ask for silverware to be refilled. Location was convenient--easy off/on to the interstate. And, it was quiet. The bed was hard and not comfortable. We won't stay here again.
