You get what you pay for - a cheap place to sleep
Pros:

The woman who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. Beds are clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

Very worn out and in need of sprucing up and repairs. Evidence of prior insect issues. Dead bugs trapped in the picture frame! Hole in the door, water damaged bottom on the bathroom door, frayed carpet. Just really needs to be redone. Not just the lobby.

Pros:

The staff where very nice

Cons:

I checked in friday evening and I did see renovations going on but it didnt bother me. What bothered me once I got to my room all I heard was the dog that was across from my room barking nonstop until 9 30pm. I did go down to see if my room could be switched but there wasnt other king rooms available. Then my husband came back to the room after visiting good friends and went to take shower and the water was not working. That when I decided to check out it was past midnight and go somewhere else.

Arrived very late and the front desk check in was easy as she could see how tired I was! Breakfast was nice and early. Lots of choices as well. Room was comfortable and clean. Easy access to get back in the highway as I continued my journey.

We survived and it was convenient.
Pros:

Location and value. Was easy to book.

Cons:

Didn’t realize was under construction. Ice machine was told on floor below and was not working when we went to get and had caution tape around it.
The hotel was packed so they do a lot of business. The breakfast is good.
