Pros:

Pool is 24hrs. It has parking and 2 restaurants.

Cons:

I recently stayed at this hotel and it’s a very basic place. The room is simple, just a bed and a shower. They do provide the essentials like soap, shampoo, conditioner, and towels, which was appreciated.

However, there are a few things that could definitely be improved. The room does not have a mini fridge nor microwave, which can be inconvenient for longer stays. The WiFi is unreliable and only works sometimes. Cleanliness could also use more attention. When checking the bed area, the back of the beds appeared dirty and didn’t seem to be cleaned regularly.

Overall, this hotel may work if you’re looking for a very simple and budget stay, but don’t expect many amenities or strong attention to detail in cleanliness.

Sketchy AF
Pros:

The ride away. We were not kidnapped or missing a kidney.

Cons:

I booked this motel last minute as our flight had been delayed two days due to snow. The staff was not friendly upon check-in. The room- toilet ran every 3-4 minutes. Shower leaked making the ground wet with standing water. Hubs bed was broke. Pretty sure sheets were clean. Hair on the shelves that was not ours. Tile floor was gritty. Lots of noise. From the a/c, the outside cars, the airport. Towels were clean and fluffy.

Nice breakfast restaurant directly connected with the hotel
The hotel let us store our luggage for few hours after checkout

Cons:

We had to change the first room as it was not clean enough
Old furniture, overall hotel looks a bit old and not properly maintained, but you get what you pay for
