It was an enjoyable stay and I would definitely stay again.
Pros:

The location was close to the hustle and bustle but still quiet. The staff was nice and easy to book day to day.

Cons:

I didn’t like that you had to go up the flight of stairs and it wasn’t near our room

A little misleading.
Pros:

Location was good. And the staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I spent almost 300 dollars on the room. Not alp of them were that high, but i was looking fot a honeymoon suite. Which they had. The pictures they had listed with the room were actual pictures. They were just a little mis leading. It was a very basic, economy room with a jaccuzzi tub in it. Had it been 150. I would have been happy. But for what i paid. I was expecting alot more. Just be careful.

Upset completely
Pros:

Over priced, don't understand why its much more expensive when paying at the property whenever you're able to get it almost $50 dollars cheaper on a booking site.also the booking site is used and purchased ahead of time lied about the room I was purchasing i didn't know until we got to the hotel and checked in that I was lied to I was told that my room was smoking one king bed with jacuzzi room for a certain price I found out after already paying that it was for a regular room non smoking no jacuzzi the whole purpose was to soak so after finding that out I couldn't afford to pay what the property was charging which was told them room rang $200 and more which I paid almost $90 dollars online i had no choice because refund wasn't a choice so I had to get a room non smoking shower they didn't have bathtubs so I paid for a room I didn't want and was lied to explained to office thinking something would get taken care of and no nothing was done even about a site lies also paid deposit and wasn't told that either and had to borrow the deposit from my daughter so I would have lost out on money if I didn't have someone to loan me the deposit

Cons:

Disgusting room, disappointed by the whole stay in general.
Pros:

The location was the only positive about this stay.

Cons:

The filth was awful. I’d actually prefer to get a full refund because of how gross it actually was.
The shower doors were disgusting.
We took our shoes off to get comfortable and the clean socks we had on became very filthy and I took picture proof for everything!
Didn’t even feel as safe and secure as I’d like because the chain lock was broke.

The front desk staff also wasn’t friendly at all.

VERY DISAPPOINTED and won’t stay again. I feel like this should be refunded or a credit to say the least!!!

Awful
Pros:

We stayed at this hotel and the front desk attendant was rude and there was prostitution or something going on and out of lobby. We felt very uncomfortable and had to leave within a few hours after checking in as we tried to ask an underage girl if she was ok. The front desk attendant was rude and told us to eff off and mind our own business. We felt they were going to give us trouble with our vehicle or stay so we left. I had to pay for another room somewhere else where we were safe.

Cons:

See above

Upgrades in key areas made this budget motel an excellent value, the best in our recent experience
Pros:

Modern shower stall, modern in-room coffee maker, good WiFi, low price, good location if you’re on the road, and well shielded from road noise.

Cons:

Bathroom was very small, although separate basin space was good. Can’t have been a non-smoking room for very long. Kid woke us up at 3 a.m. but it was our kid.
