Cleanliness
4
Mixed reports but overall poor: multiple reviews mention musty smell, dirty walls, crumbs behind TV, shower drain with hair and general lack of cleaning despite a few mentions of clean rooms.
Service
8.5
Generally positive: staff described as helpful and friendly and provided support on short stays; single report of unresponsiveness at checkout lowers a perfect score.
Location
9
Consistently praised: excellent/perfect location for travelers and well-lit parking, convenient for short stays.
Room Quality
4
Below average: complaints about flooring coming up, signs of water damage, stale/musty odor and an unappealing bed in one report, though some found beds comfortable.
Amenities
5
Limited: handicapped amenities noted as needing improvement and no consistent mention of positive amenities; minimal offerings for a comfortable extended stay.
Value for Money
7.5
Perceived as inexpensive and acceptable for a one-night stay; reviewers note 'you get what you pay for'—good price but quality is modest.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Minimal mention: lack of breakfast noted (one reviewer listed not having breakfast as a pro), suggesting limited F&B services but no strong complaints beyond that.
Overall Experience
7.5
Mixed but service and location boost the stay: convenient and safe for short visits, but cleanliness, room condition and occasional noise reduce overall satisfaction.

Hotel needs improvements
Pros:

The location was perfect for where I needed to be.
The parking lot was well lit at night.
It's a cheap place if you're just looking to spend one night while traveling. I would say you get what you pay for, but the next hotel we went to was the same price and a completely different experience.

Cons:

The photos they list on the website are very misleading. The room did not feel clean at all and had a very stale musty smell upon arrival. The flooring was horrible. You could pull up every tile. It was almost as if there was a lot of water damage to the room. Every night, the parking lot was full, so they're making their money, just not putting any of it back into the hotel. The walls were dirty, things half wiped off, and a lot of dirt and crumbs pushed behind the tv area instead of being cleaned. I'm glad we brought our own blankets and pillows because there was no way we were sleeping in that bed. The shower drain was backed up upon arrival, had to pull out someone else's hair to clear it. Check out day, and I wanted to speak with someone, rang the bell 3 times, and no one came.

Ok
Pros:

Location. Price.

Cons:

The sink was plugged up. Used to wash and the water did not go down until the next day. Brushed teeth spitting in the tub. Felt like I was camping. It was a motel and right outside our door 2-3 people were talking from 10-pm to1:00 am and very very loud. Hard to sleep with that going on.

The place was dirty and run down.
Pros:

The beds were comfortable.

Cons:

We booked 2 rooms. They were far away from each other which made sharing things difficult. The place was really run down. One room had a bad odor. Both rooms had outlets that only worked on one side of the room. There were hairs in the bathtub and on “clean” towels. There were stains on the ceiling in one room. The breakfast was just cereal. There was a person sleeping on the floor in the check in area during the breakfast hours. It was quite uncomfortable as a guest.
