Nice staff but roach infested
The room was clean and cozy at first until we got little viators. There was roaches all over our room. The staff was nice and comfortable.

The staff is pretty kind but the room and the conditions of the hotel was so poor, in front of my door was trash, holes in the wall of my room and If you have a breakfast there you should know that this ends until 9 and not 10 how it says in her ticket for breakfast

It was disgusting and I walked out and got a room at another hotel. Unfortunately I had already checked into the room and so I had to forfeit my payment. The doors seemed like they had been pried open and they didn’t close well. It smelled terrible and the bathroom was in terrible condition. Missing tile and paneling.
I opened the makeshift closet and four roaches crawled down the door. I took my bags and walked out. I know it was a cheap hotel so my expectations weren’t high, but I honestly feel like this facility should be condemned.

Many roaches in the room. Very gross. Didn’t even stay, decided to drive right back home instead. Would not recommend just because it’s cheap.

The gentleman that checked me in did not say one word to me. The place is being painted all of the windows are plastic over. You could not see out of the peep hole in the door.The inside was not clean. The air vent was open in the bathroom with no cover. The bath tub was rusty. Will not recommend
