Great price. Rude front desk night shift worker.
Pros:

Price.

Cons:

Tv in room couldn’t change channels. When trying to call to front desk had no dial tone. Went downstairs and woman was rude but changed batteries in remote. Tv still couldn’t change channels. Went downstairs again and woman appeared to be sleeping at the desk. Told her the TV still didn’t work and phone wasn’t working. She was extremely rude and said we called but hung up on her. Told her phone had no dial tone and she showed us her phone call log. Asked about the tv and she said she didn’t know what to tell us. Asked her to note both issues.

in and out. Perkins next door!!
Pros:

Close to where I needed to be. Got what I paid for, which wasn't much.

Cons:

Cigarette holes in my bedspread. Minimal pillows, stiff basic bed, thin walls, thick dust in shower air vent. lack of outlets. No USB charging ports. Antiquated TV and remote. No coffee in the room. One ice machine on the main floor, I was on the 5th. Paid little, got little

Average value. It would have been better if room was non-smoking as requested and bathroom had fan.
Pros:

Staff contacted us about when we were expected to be at the inn. Staff was friendly and got me checked in quickly. Liked the location.

Cons:

My room was non-smoking but I still could detect the cigarette smell. The bathroom has no fan. There was no bucket to get ice. Vending machine could use more variety.

Dirty, trashy ppl around and not welcoming at all.
Pros:

What did I think of the breakfast? There was no breakfast. Coffee only and I dont drink coffee.

Cons:

Didn't honor reservation. Gave it the person in front of us. So we had to get a suite and pay more. Lady at desk was RUDE. Refrigerator was wobbly. Door had been busted into and there was no deadbolt, just broken wood. LOUD, ppl screaming and talking loud until midnight on both sides. Loud music outside the parking lot until 11pm. No breakfast or any food at all.
