Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Very uncomfortable beds. Strange musty smell in the room. For $20 more we could have stayed at a much nicer hotel. This was more like an apartment complex for borderline homeless

Decent hotel, but had I known about the high pet fees. I probably would’ve stayed somewhere else.
Pros:

Comfortable bed, good water pressure, night staff was pleasant, big parking lot.

Cons:

I was charged exorbitant pet fees for a very dirty room to charge that kind of pet fee and they’re obviously which ridiculous $20. Perfect pet was way too much. There was pubic hair on the toilet the refrigerator was dirty, and there was blood on the pillows, lots of hair in the tub.

Pros:

Staff was accommodating with our early check-in request and were friendly and professional during the entire process and stay.

Cons:

I'm not sure who it was, but our room phone rang at 1:00 AM. We were asleep and by the time one of us got up to answer it, it stopped ringing.

Not suitable
Pros:

Price was good for a few hours sleep. Inn had charm.

Cons:

Off the beaten path, too far from interstate. Area was a bit sketchy. Doors to room could use repair. When I told the desk " remote batteries low warning on TV" seemed like lack of belief, sent desk clerk to verify remote worked after batteries replaced. Bed was uncomfortable.

Dirty and one step up from a homeless shelter at best.
Pros:

The only thing I liked was the location

Cons:

The property was so disgusting and dirty that I couldn’t even stay there. The person at your front desk barely spoke English and couldn’t answer the few very easy questions I asked. As I arrived, there was a shoeless man sitting in his wheelchair smoking a cigarette right in front of the entrance. He appeared to be very down on his luck. Guessing that’s why he was staying at this property in the first place. Overall it was worth cancelling the reservation and absorbing the cancellation fee of $107 to NOT have to stay there. Worth the drive back home!
