Pros:

Very pleasant owner! Apartment size fridge which was perfect for us. Good size room.

Cons:

Bed was a bit lumpy. Outlet was behind the bed so hard to access for the bi-pap, however plenty of outlets on the desk.

Ok place if you if don't have anywhere else to go, but it is rather dark and dingy for a hotel.
Pros:

Location was good, easy to find and not far off the highway.

Cons:

When I first saw the place I thought it was closed due to the condition of the outside. The rooms were a little better than the outside but not what I was used to at that price.

Pros:

Location and the in room coffee pot.

Cons:

It was sketchy as heck. I was hoping leatherface didn't show up in the middle of the night. Lawn hadn't been cut in weeks from the looks of it.

This is a wonderful place to stay for business or leisure. I’ll definitely return.
Pros:

The room was clean and close to everything I needed. And the bed was incredibly comfortable to sleep in. And the air conditioner worked amazing. There’s so many good things that I can’t list them all. The most important was how friendly staff and management are.

Cons:

I can’t think of a single thing I didn’t like.

Cons:

One way in and out. And late at night we were locked in. Black mold was in our room near the window and carpet was wet in places near the outside wall. No sprinkler system in the rooms.
