A clean and comfortable stay ~10 min from I-77
Pros:

The bed was clean and comfortable. It was truly non-smoking, with no whiff of cigarette inside. The shower was decent. I didn't try the AC because it was late october and the temperature was already in the 50s outside, so no need for AC inside. Plenty of parking outside.

Cons:

The building is old and you can see that some areas are in need of repair or remodeling. No breakfast was included in the rate.

Pros:

The location was good for us. Was just an overnight stop on a trip. Price was very affordable. The manager was very helpful

Cons:

Our first room was not clean. It appeared clean but when we looked at bed it wasn't clean. Found hairs on the bed. Pulled back the sheet and found more under it. Manager apologized and had us look at another room. It was clean. She called house keeping and had them clean the first room again. Manager was great. House keeping not so much

Pros:

I booked a room for one adult with a pet. The pice I paid on your internet site was $71.63. When I arrived, the woman at the desk told me that I would have to pay an additional $20 for the pet. The booking was for one adult and one pet. She should not have charged me the extra $20. Also, she overcharged me for the room. She charged me $73.12 instead of the agreed upon price of $71.63.

Cons:

The agreed upon price to remain as quoted on your website.
