The price was as advertised, but for a nicer hotel. The ice maker on the main floor was filthy and breakfast did not meet the healthy hype. The advertised exercise room was a converted hotel room in the annex with very little equipment. The shabbiness of the hotel could be overcome by welcoming or friendly staff.

The photos definitely make it look way nicer than it is. Our room was dirty to the point that our socks were sticking to the carpet, and the lamps between the beds didn’t work. The one across the room on the desk was about to fall apart, and the smoke detector was open and missing batteries. The bathroom looked like it had never been properly cleaned. The beds are, well, let’s just say, well broken in. They also seem to be housing some sketchy individuals who spent most of the night yelling in the parking lot. The breakfast wasn’t anything special—standard powdered eggs and some toast. The juice tasted kind of off too.

Ok Stay......but
There's a lot to consider for this facility. The breakfast is more in line with a continental breakfast instead of a hot breakfast. Cleanliness of the room was ok but not really to the standard of like facilities in the competitive market.

Someone’s Left Overs To Cuddle With
The hotel was filthy!! It’s old ran down. We got to the hotel late ready to check in at 2am, exhausted from our drive. Immediately shocked by the obvious inaccuracy of the photos and shocked by how old and ran down the building was we were so tired and it was so late we tried to just get some sleep. About to jump in bed we pulled back our covers to crawl into our bed that we just entered a new room in and found pizza crust in between our sheets. Absolutely grossed out we called and were told we had to wait for the manager in the morning. They wouldn’t even bring new sheets to us or give us new sheets when we requested. Needless to say we left the next day. We still are waiting for the “manager” to call

The toilet kept clogging even after I called them and they came to attend to it. I stayed three nights and had a clogged toilet the whole time. People sit outside their room in chairs brought out from the room and smoke cigarettes there and it’s obvious they haven’t swept up the cigarette butts in weeks.

Overall my stay was ok for the price. I would just suggest locking the latch hook as well because someone jiggled my handle late during my first night stay. Other than that, the facility was clean and quiet and the staff was helpful.

The rooms in main hotel are okay but originally I was given a room not attached to hotel and it was dirty. The clerk at desk gave me another room that was clean. They were having problems with morning breakfast setup and power to the toaster and waffle maker kept turning off. I paid way too much for what I expected.

Mediocre at best...too expensive for what you ge.
Low budget hotel for medium cost. We had to change rooms because tub was clogged and not easily fixed. Trash and cigarette butts all over the ground outside. Guests seemed sketchy but we didnt run into any problems. Management friendly and accommodating when we needed a new room. Location was convenient.

The property was OK but not a place I'd want to linger. The facilities seemed dated. Hot tub did not work. Gym didn't open until 8 a.m. Breakfast was modest and cold - apple juice didn't work.
