The room was clean but we couldn’t escape the smell of the hallway.
Pros:

The room was clean.

Cons:

The hallway smelled so bad of cat pee, weed,and cigarette smoke. The carpet was disgusting with stains everywhere.
My husband also had a fall in the shower where I had to call the paramedics to help him, and we did not hear one word from the management or any of the staff to see how he was doing.

Pros:

-

Cons:

I am very disappointed with my stay at this place. The room was extremely dirty. It had clearly not been vacuumed, the towels were dirty, and almost nothing in the room looked clean. Everything smelled strongly of cigarette smoke, making the room very unpleasant to stay in. Even after leaving the hotel, all of our clothes still smell like cigarettes. The room itself was old, unattractive, and poorly maintained. It was uncomfortable and definitely not worth the price we paid. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. It was one of the worst hotel experiences I have had.

Room was pretty big and clean, bed comfortable, very clean linens , bathroom clean too.

Cons:

Outside the room was bed smell, in the hall and everywhere outside the room. When you close the room door its pretty good . Big space with perfect air condition and fridge. If i need in future i could stay there again.

For a short stay on a budget, it will do if expectations are low.
Pros:

Right off the highway, very easy. Plenty of restaurants around. 10 minutes from a Walmart.

Cons:

Needs "updating" e.g., carpeting has stains and tears. Vomit smell in hallway downstairs. Cigarette smoke smell on 2nd floor. Urine smell in stairway going from 1st to 2nd floor. Key Cards kept losing their programming requiring a trip to front desk to get it reprogrammed. Broken shelf in bathroom reported on 1st day of stay ... never repaired. No housekeeping by default - needs to be requested for each day. No coat-hangers in room
