I regret trusting the reviews.
Pros:

If you don’t have other option stay there. The beds were comfortable and staff nice ish. However the floor was filthy like had never been cleaned and the were left over of soap in the walls of the shower like look even darkish color. The AC was broken and even though we requested a non smoker room the room stinks to cigarette.

For the price we paid it was not worthy. Better stay in Motel 6 or other motels. I think the good reviews are from family or friends from the owners, because even the pool is small not at all like the picture, but after seen how the floor of the bedrooms were I would not advise to get in the pool either only them know when and how they cleaned.

Cons:

Comfy beds.

sub-standard for the price
Pros:

Inferior accommodations for the price charged. We were stuck at 1AM after 8 hours of flying to find our pre-paid reservations at a local Ramada Inn were overbooked. Found this one at a much higher price. On arrival the room was spartan with no tissues, very noisy bedframe, noisy refrigerator, TV that needed front desk help every time it was turned on, overnight noise in adjacent rooms and parking lot.

Too many homeless and drug users around the area or on the parking lot. Did not feel safe. But inside the room very clean.
