Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The water pressure in the shower was very poor ot took more than an hour to get rid the champu from my head the hair dryer not working
It was clean, easy check in-out. Had just what we needed... A bed, TV, Shower, a chair.... Great stop over when needing a break from the road & hamd gas station, food places & a Walmart down the road... Totally recommend. Great price for a 1 night stand.
The man working the front desk was very nice. The hotel looks nothing like the pictures. When we checked into the room the door looked like someone had tried breaking in with a crow bar. The wall was peeling off and the bathtub had black stuff all around on top. I wasn’t comfortable staying there so we left immediately.
Smelled like dog hair and mildew no bed bugs that I didn’t see but couldn’t stop itching remote control didn’t work hot water takes a while to heat up rooms needs to be remodeled felt like a crack wh*re in a sleezy hotel I left to find a better hotel within 10 minutes 👎👎👎 staff makes excuses for horrible rooms
