Got no sleep because I am deathly afraid of snakes and was worried one would get into room. It’s not everyday you find a
Pros:

Location

Cons:

There was a live snake on the 2nd floor next to the vending machine!!
The furniture was broken in room. Carpet was so dirty it turned my white socks brown. Pillows need to be replaced. Desk chair had no vinyl left to it, need to be thrown out.

It was ok.
Pros:

It was easy to get to when school wasn’t starting or releasing and it was close to the main drag

Cons:

It smelt like pot and mold on the 3rd floor the beds felt like a literal rock I hurt so bad I couldn’t really sleep and I’ve slept on some hard beds in hotels before without problems and the doors don’t fit the frame well enough to keep the hall light from bleeding in horribly and with the amount of room that was in the actual room it’s self they could of made the bathroom bigger so you could actually use the bathroom without being basically standing on the toilet.

All in all a decent low cost option.
Pros:

Location was good for our short visit. Facilities were clean.

Cons:

A little outdated, There were no USB outlets in the room. The corner had room for at least another chair for when at least two guests were there - desk chair was not enough. Jacuzzi was not functioning.

Pros:

Good amenities: breakfast, fitness center, pool. Spacious hotel, nice lobby and dining area. Quite location

Cons:

The jets in the hot tub didn’t work or were just very low powered, the water in the hot tub wasn’t as full as it should have been and not as hot as a normal hot tub temperature. There was not a vending machine with anything but canned soda, no snack or water available to purchase, had to drive to the gas station down the street to get water.

Ok for a night
Cons:

Never saw the free breakfast advertised. Was not told about it at checking, so assume there wasn't any. No outlets on both sides of the bed to charge phones. The outlets were loose and hard to keep anything plugged in.
The granite counter top in bathroom was falling down, afraid to lean on it brushing my teeth.

Overall it was a good place to stay.
Pros:

It was a convenient location and the room offered adequate comfort and needs met.

Cons:

We had to bring in all of our loaded vehicle contents for security and the outside entrance was not secure. The lock on it seemed to be either broken or non-functional.
