Cleanliness
4
Multiple reviews mention dirty rooms, stains, a refrigerator described as dirty, a smell like corn chips and requests that rooms be cleaned better — overall clearly negative for cleanliness.
Service
7.8
Several guests call staff friendly and note easy app check-in, but there are complaints about communication (deposit refund not issued, front desk explanations, some customer service issues and a non-English-speaking rep) — overall mixed-to-positive service.
Location
9
Many reviews cite a very convenient location near the interstate, stores, gas stations and food; a few note loitering in the parking lot at night, but location is consistently praised.
Room Quality
5.5
Guests report problems: wrong bed type, lumpy/uneven beds, small pillows, noisy fan, no/low hot water and residual smells — room quality is notably inconsistent.
Amenities
5.5
Amenities are limited or inconsistent: several guests report no breakfast (coffee only), missing cable/entertainment and spotty signal; some features (app check-in, occasional free breakfast) are noted but overall amenities are underwhelming.
Value for Money
8
Multiple guests state the property is "right for the price" or note good rates and availability; despite issues with cleanliness and deposits, many feel the price and location make it good value.
Food and Beverage
5
Frequent complaints about no breakfast (coffee only) contrasted with an occasional mention of free breakfast — overall F&B is lacking or inconsistent.
Overall Experience
8.8
Mixed experiences: many guests highlight friendliness, safety, quietness and convenience and say they'd stay again, while others report cleanliness, noise and deposit/refund problems. Overall leans positive for budget travelers given price and location.

Pros:

Lots of people were loitering in parking lot at 1am. I left as I did not feel safe to park there. My car had stuff in it as I was in process of moving. Did not want to risk dealing with broken window in the morning.
