Multiple reports of bedbugs, live cockroaches, stained sheets, hair and food buildup, mold and water damage — overall clearly poor housekeeping and sanitary conditions.
Service
9
Front-desk staff repeatedly described as friendly and helpful; a few housekeeping lapses and an unhelpful staff interaction noted, but overall the desk service was a highlight.
Location

Several reviews call out a good location with food choices nearby; location is one of the consistent positive points.

4
Rooms reported with holes in ceiling/floor, stained walls, rusted door frames, broken bathroom door/lock and very poor room condition overall; one mention of overly soft beds causing back soreness.
Amenities

Pool described positively (heated, clean); other amenities mixed — breakfast and some facility upkeep are poor, but the pool and basic offerings provide some value.
Value for Money

Some guests noted the price was great, while others felt the condition did not justify the rate; mixed perceived value overall.

Great service, poor building conditions; dead bedbugs and live roaches found
Pros:

I liked the girls at the front desk, they both were very friendly during my check in and check out. I liked the pool, it was heated, clean and the light inside was nice. The outside atmosphere at night outside is laid back. But that's all I can say nice about my stay.

Cons:

I did not like that I had to switch to a 2 bed queen room, due to my 3rd floor king room having dried bedbugs on the ledge of the picture hung above the bed. And there was a lot of mold and water damage to the ceiling and floor of my 2nd room.. so the roof must have a leak somewhere. Not very healthy to breathe in.
Housekeeping... For as busy as the hotel is, it shouldn't be so dusty. The bedding in the 2nd room was stained up, still had black hairs on it and I found some build up of hair and food along the bed frame and behind the bed, against the wall.

My uncle and aunt stayed in another room on 2nd floor which had a live cockroach crawling on the bed. They ended up sharing a room with their son, because there were no more rooms open. I didn't take pictures of the hole in the ceiling, or the hole in the floor by the AC..

Pros:

No one really bothers you at all.

Cons:

I had to step out into the hall when housekeeping was out there and asked them for extra towels, and the guy looked at me and said just dial zero on your phone. There were no phones in the hotel room.

The room was disgusting. I had to ask for a different one, that had bed bugs and smelled horrible. I didn’t sleep. It was nasty.

Disgusting, dilapidated, unclean hotel with dirty room, broken doors and dirty sheets,
Pros:

Not much. The person working at the front desk was really nice and really tried to help us. However the help might have actually made it worse because the room on the first floor he moved us into was a disaster, but it was already past midnight and we just needed to sleep.

Cons:

This is a long list. To start with, the walls in the room were stained and in really rough shape. The door frames were missing paint and rusted. The bathroom was dirty, the tub was stained really bad. The one bed, the sheet were dirty, like they had hair and dirt in them, as if they were never changed from the last person, just remade. I felt like I had to sleep in my clothes due to the sheets. The shower had good pressure at least. The bathroom door you can see in the picture the shape of the lock. We did not try to close it, but it closed on its own and got stuck. It took two of us to try to finally work it free so my daughter could get out of the bathroom. We then tried to leave it propped open, so could not even have privacy in the bathroom. Look at the pictures at the condition of the room. If a single person would have gotten stuck in the bathroom, the only recourse they would have had was to break the door worse than it already is. The breakfast was horrible, nothing like trying to eat still frozen or very cold eggs. Based on the condition of this hotel and the condition of the room, you should not charge more than $25 per night, and that is even generous as you must not be paying a cleaning crew at all, or if you are, they are ripping you off.

Being that I was there for a work situation that day was tolerable, but nothing to brag about
Pros:

The biscuits and gravy was fine, but they need to change the menu for a different days of the week. The location was perfect for my situation.

Cons:

The sink and bathroom facilities needs to be remodeled
