Desk manager was surly and not helpful. Room was starkly unfurnished. There was only one nightstand and lamp. No chair, table or desk. Edges of carpet were dirty and unvaccuumed.

I was very happy with my room and the condition of the hotel. I slept well. The check in was fairly easy. The new hire was friendly. The free breakfast was really meager.

Dirty and Uncomfortable

The room was VERY musty, damp and dirty. There were stains on the top bed spread, there was mold/mildew in the bathtub shower corners and everything had a damp sticky feel. The pillows were tiny (like couch decor sized pillows) and uncomfortable. Our AC unit was so loud it was difficult to sleep and woke me up almost everytime it kicked on (and I'm a VERY sound sleeper; military base). The breakfast bar was more than underwhelming. Would defintely NOT recommend staying here.

DO NOT STAY HERE

The room was moist. It smelled like mildew. The carpet and tile were damp. The bedding was damp. I asked to switch rooms they said they were fully booked. These rooms are a biohazard and they should not be rented.

The property was nicely remodeled. Checkin staff (owner) acted short, rude, like he could care less about greeting his paying guests. Bed spread was stained, no frig or microwave.Breafast was a joke. Would not return or recommend.

The sink drained very slow, took hours to drain. We washed up and brushed our teeth with the bathtub faucet. We were not aware that there would be a pet fee of $30.00 per dog per day.
