Beware, inexpensive place but you get what you pay for. Dirty, depressing place. Only stayed because there was no other option. Paid extra for a kitchen. This 'upgrade' included 1 coffee cup, 1 fork, 1 steak knife, 3 eating spoons (2 of which were dirty - I gave them to manager who was indifferent and didn't have them replaced; so really, 1 spoon), 2 cooking utensils in a dirty plastic cup that had a dead fly inside, a two-burner electric stove (1 heating element did not work, so really, one-burner stove), a refrigerator that froze everything, 3 dinner plates, 5 coffee plates but 1 coffee cup, 1 pan, 1 pot; no bowls, glasses, kitchen nor paper towels, knife, cutting board nor any other standard utensils. Crumbs and stains everywhere, the shelf liners were filthy and stained. Linoleum flooring badly stained, should be replaced. Bed pillows were lumpy and bedding was thin and thread-bare. Pool was murky and pool area very depressing. Grounds were equally depressing and not at all like the photos show. The good: convenient laundry (1 washer and 1 dryer) onsite, ice machine (but no ice bucket; had to use a cooking pot) Lobby looks decent, easy parking, good location, strong water flow in shower with hot water, mattress comfortable, inexpensive to stay (but you get what you pay for)

Owners/staff are not unfriendly, but are not friendly either. Hotel is old and I usually clean (I have stayed here many times) this time the room we stayed in was not totally clean. The safe did not work, nor did the “fireplace”. We usually stay here because we bring up dogs. This time we did not bring the dogs. I would not recommend to stay here if you do not have pets.
