Cleanliness
4.5
Mixed but overall negative: multiple reviews mention hair, dirty floors, bad odors, rust, empty body wash and general unclean rooms; a few guests reported the room was clean or 'super clean.'
Service
9.3
Mixed reports but many positive interactions: several guests describe staff as 'amazing', 'kind and friendly' and helpful, while a few report a rude front desk incident and problems with deposit/refund handling—overall many positive staff experiences justify an above-average score.
Location
8.5
Generally favorable: noted as close to the Greenway and quiet for many guests, though some found access awkward and complained about too many handicap spots in front or being placed near noisy areas.
Room Quality
5.8
Below average: several reviews cite worn furniture, rips, peeling baseboards, old mattresses, door gaps, and malfunctioning toilets; some guests found the bed comfortable or rooms acceptable for short stays.
Amenities
7.5
Mixed: the pool is praised and available amenities are functional for some guests, but breakfast offerings are limited, a broken toaster and empty toiletry dispensers were reported.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed perceptions: some guests feel it's a good value for the price or fine for a short stay, while others were upset by a surprise $100 deposit and felt expectations weren't met.
Food and Beverage
5.5
Below average: breakfast criticized for limited variety (waffles, sugary cereals), broken equipment (toaster), and incidents around breakfast handling; some guests had no issues but overall sentiment is weak.
Overall Experience
8.2
Mixed overall but often adequate for short stays: multiple guests enjoyed quiet, friendly staff and the pool, while others experienced significant cleanliness and service problems. Many guests would consider staying again, producing an overall slightly above-average impression.

Eeek....
Pros:

Check in experience was good. Relatively quick, although the "10 minutes for a refund" was concerning.

Cons:

Sketchy. Bathroom door was locked from the inside. Finally got it open and there was a horrendous odor in there. It was noisy all night long (this is a motel and not a hotel). Barely slwpt. The body wash container in the shower was empty.. Breakfast was a waffle machine and a broken toaster for toast.

Pros:

Staff was absolutely horrible and just right out rude, the hotel had complimentary breakfast I had to leave my room that morning for a while before check out I went and got a banana and 2 little oranges and put them in a bowl and proceeded to my car the man at the front desk the starts screaming at me and literally chased me out the door demanding I return inside with my food. I explain to him I'm not taking food back to the room I had and errand I had to do before check out and I had to leave I didn't have time to sit there and eat it, he again demands I take the food inside and place it in the counter for someone else instead of me throwing it away after me handling it. For the amount I paid for the room plus the $100 deposit I didn't find out about having to pay until I arrived I really feel I should have been able to eat the breakfast I technically paid for. I will NEVER stay at this place again

Cons:

The front staff

Reasonably comfortable bed, AC worked fine
Pros:

Not much there for a diabetic. Waffles and sugary cereals were the main thing available so I had to eat elsewhere.

Cons:

Same as above

Never again
Pros:

Awkward getting in and out to and from property. Room was NOT clean well; hair in several places, bed platform ‘dirt’, baseboards peeling off wall, sheets and towels might been as old as the mattress, which was probably the original mattress from the 70’s, toilet was used and dirty, and the door didn’t shut tight and was gapped open when shut and locked …

Cons:

I didn’t like being placed right in front of the pool and having what seemed like a ‘regular’ guess pacing for hours right outside my gapped open door talking on his phone for hours … and being right at the pool access gate
