This was a very comfortable room for the night. Efficient air conditioner, comfortable bed, no complaints about the room. They don't start serving coffee until 7:00 but that's a minor inconvenience, a nice place to spend the night on a road trip. Safe for people and dogs.

The state of the room and bathroom is horrible—hair, mold, yellowed towels, and a bad odor in the room suggesting it isn't being cleaned. It smells musty; they really need to either renovate the entire hotel or hire a better cleaning company.
