Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Multiple reviews report bad cleanliness: rooms smelled of urine/dog, used soap in bathroom, roaches reported and general dirtiness; cleanliness is a clear negative across stays.
Service
10
Mixed but generally positive front-desk interactions noted: several guests described staff as kind, professional and helpful and staff attempted to address issues; however there are repeated complaints about pet charges/deposits despite paperwork. Overall staff responsiveness is the strongest relative aspect in reviews.
Location
10
Consistently mentioned as convenient, close to the interstate and quiet; multiple guests cited location as a primary pro.
Room Quality
3.8
Rooms reported with significant issues: bed uncomfortable/hard, TV/AC/locks malfunctioning, missing kitchen sink, odor problems and some reports of roaches—room quality is below expectation.
Amenities
4.2
Amenities lacking or problematic: no breakfast/coffee for guests, missing phone in some rooms, kitchen amenities incomplete (missing sink), and general outside/outdated property furniture noted.
Value for Money
4.4
Multiple guests complained about unexpected pet fees/deposits (some charged $20–$30 and had deposits retained), combined with cleanliness and room issues, resulting in poor perceived value.
Food and Beverage
4.5
Frequently reported absence of breakfast/coffee and no on-site F&B offerings mentioned; this area is underwhelming for guests.
Overall Experience
6
Mixed overall: location and helpful staff are positives, but pervasive cleanliness, room-quality problems, unexpected pet fees/deposits and limited amenities produced an overall mediocre-to-poor stay for many guests.

I was charged $20 for my service dog. I also had my tool box stolen out of my truck
Pros:

No breakfast.

Cons:

I was charged $20 for my service dog. Even after showing paperwork they still said they charge $20 for all pets regardless.
