Disappointed! This oil well was a DUD!
Pros:

The TV worked great. Nice and quiet atmosphere. It was close to where we needed to go in the area.

Cons:

Early check-in was an extra $25; obviously the room was ready, but opted for regular after 3pm check-in; the men's restroom in the lobby looked like it had not been cleaned if a while. My room was missing toilet paper and did not realize until I had to go later in the evening. I had to go to front desk and ask for a roll. The Kleenex box looked like they stuffed 3 pieces of tissue in it, then box was empty. there was only three small bath towels and shower-floor towel on the tub; yet there was threatening signs that customers will be charged if they dirty the white towels; sign instructs you to use the colored towels, yet there were no colored towels provided. The fridge was dirty. The shower made a loud squealing noise. I will never stay here again!!!!

Gold star
Pros:

Always my go-to. They have the best staff. I fill a room, when I move in I bring my own bedding and cover every surface in stuff. Housekeeping simply refills my toiletries, towels, and cleans the heck out of what they can. I really appreciate how careful and considerate they are. Sometimes I bring my small dog, they have great areas to walk her and are very considerate of giving her space. Literally right down the road from family.

Cons:

Rooms are starting to get a little run down, worn out. Needs a bit of an update on plumbing and little things, seals in doors, towel racks hooks in bathrooms. All cosmetic nothing to do with housekeeping.

All-in-all, it was a great place for the value and I will stay there again.

I was there three days and can't say enough about the staff -- super friendly, helpful, and just great people on all shifts. The pool was sparkling and the breakfast area was well-kept.

The towels were a little thin. :-)

Pros:

The convince to my grandson graduation

Cons:

Refrigerator not working, light bulbs not replaced,no shower curtains had to ask,for on,towels old dingy and scratchy,sprinkler hanging out of celling, property had tarantulas need to ensure things are kept away as much as possible they need extermination professionals to treat the property side walks need to be cleaned of the bugs which the tarantulas were feeding on my 75 year old sister was traumatized by seeing these large spiders, and said she will never stay there again,so I will have to drive 16 miles father for her not to be afraid. THE property can be good with more attention to details, the breakfast was horrible 😫. Concrete drive was all broken up pool was nice after the bugs were removed,however it was hard too enjoy cause the staff let there children use most of the evening. IT COULD BE A GREAT PROPERTY IF SOME ONE CARED. The entrance is pretty however. The staff did the best they could do with what they had to work with. The owners need to visit there property I have owned many properties and I always visited them all sometimes unexpected, to see if my managers were on Job I expected alot cause it matters when people spend there money especially a good night sleep
