Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The floor in the room was so dirty it left my white socks black. The room was dusty and the bed skirt dragged on the dirty floor. The property is an old motel and still feels like an old motel. I would never go back.

Not worth the price.
Front desk personnel was awesome. Room was dirty: walked barefooted 30 seconds. Feet were black. Bathtub had a strange color…. Bedcovers had holes. Second day we were told there was no cleaning service for the room, no reason given…. $12 a day for parking???? It’s a motel set up where you park outside your door!!!

The Samsung TV remotes work completely differently than a standard remote. There were no instructions and the front desk attendant was unfamiliar with them so could give no information on how to use it The maintenance man had to visit my room to show me how to use it. The small fridge did not work properly.
