Pros:

The pet area was fine. I did not make it to the gym.So I have no comments. The first room I was in did not have a working electrical outlet in the bathroom and something appeared to be wrong with the air/heating system, making it difficult to breathe. After deciding, I was not going to stay the entire three days, expedia reached out to the manager at the property and was told that I could not get a refund for the third day. No real explanation given by the property manager. A staff member who had worked there for quite a while informed me that the property had been closed for 8 years but was under new management recently. I would not recommend it as a place to stay until all the upgrades are made.

Pros:

This is an old hotel and you can tell, because the rooms have an old musty smell. There was very little toilet paper and tissues. We had to go get it from housekeeping. I would not recommend and we will not stay here again.

Deceiving Pictures!
Pros:

Our stay was okay, but the pictures online certainly make this hotel look nicer than it is. It immediately looks a little sketchy when you drive up. The room was fine, though it smelled musty. The floors were absolutely disgusting— they were dirty and had hair everywhere. They clearly were not cleaned. Everything is just pretty run down. For $65 however, it served its purpose.

Pros:

You get what you pay for and this being the lowest in town.. very much lack of care. Dirty and outdated. Thick black hair on bathroom floor and in sink. Room smelled very musty. AC didn't cool down room. Refrigerator didn't go cold even on coldest setting. Wasn't comfortable to take shoes off on floor or using the shower. Crazy to see any exceptional reviews on this property.

Pros:

Property is in desperate need of upgrades. Common areas and rooms are dingy, unkept and appear that little attention to them as been made since first opening of the hotel.

Breakfast choices were very limited.

Very disappointing.
