I prepaid for 3 nights and left after the first night. It's an old motel located in an area where the few restaurants they have close at 8pm. It seems that many local workman stay at this place. This is not a place I would recommend for a single woman. Furniture and everything in the room is old. I moved over to the Courtyard by Marriott and was much happier. I did not feel safe at the Pleasant Inn.

I paid in advance for 3 nights and checked out after the first night. The place looks better in the pictures. Room is small and old. This neighborhood is dead after 7pm and there is limited dining choices. Everything was closed by 8pm. This was a motel and I would not recommend it for a woman traveling along. There is nothing but businesses in the area. I checked out and went to the Residence Inn by Marriott which was ten times better.

The property was nice. The employees were nice. I stayed two days and after the first night they replenished towels for me and threw the trash. The walls are thin so you can hear the neighbors. But other than that it was nice. Clean place to sleep. The room is not big and no microwave.

It's good. The only thing that I can complain about is there no microwave on site. With those price to stay wish there was a microwave to heat up leftover from restaurants that we ate at.

Room was clean but bed was way too soft. Housekeeping knocked on doors before 9. Staff wouldn't give us a lightbulb for one that was burned out and had to move rooms. Lots of restaurants nearby but none for breakfast.
