Freddy was the desk agent who checked me in after a grueling 11 hour day of driving. He was friendly, considerate, and helped me feel less stressed just checking me in! The room was clean. Bed was super comfortable. Highly recommend!

Kiersten

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Wrote down and told us the wrong room number which led to us being locked out at 3am, then couldn't find anyone to help us. Requested a late checkout while checking in, was informed it would be 20.00 which I agreed to and we could check out at 1pm. Staff began knocking and calling at 10am (check out isn't until 11am). I reminded them we requested a late check (SAME guy calling was the guy that gave us the wrong room number and I had already requested the late check out from) he said again it would be 20.00. I said that was fine. Got my card statement today and they charged me 50.00. We travel for work and stay in hotels weekly, worst services I have EVER received from a hotel.

Breakfast menu was fresh however the choices were limited to sausage patties somewhat hard biscuits gravy and eggs. The staff was friendly and the room was clean but the tub / shower could use some renovation. Around where the drain was looked a little worn.
