Pros:

No breakfast- just bananas on the counter. Hall smelled like marijuana and cigarette smoke. The pictures looked better than real life.

Pros:

Was going through the area on business. Area had several places to eat nearby. Room was clean. Nothing fancy but a clean decent place to stay the night is all that I needed and this fit the bill. For the price a great place to stay. Did not have a chance to check out the breakfast as I had to leave before that opened up. Will stay here again when in the area.

Pros:

Location is easy to access. Condition of the property was generally poor. Bedding did not appear to have been changed. Mattress was visibly stained on sides. Carpet needs replaced. Limited breakfast offerings. If you can afford to pay a little more for a better stay, I would recommend.

Pros:

I went to take a shower and it looked like the fan it there was about to fall out of the ceiling and when I got into my room the tv wasn’t working and instead of them coming up to help with it or fix it I had to figure it out myself
