Close to highway, so easy to find, however property needs to renovate the bathroom in our room desperately, and the ‘breakfast’ is only coffee and no food. Location in general is a bit seedy.

I paid way too much for what this property provided. Luckily I only booked it for one night, as I was not willing to shower in the room. From the moment I opened the door to a pitch black room, I wanted out. Then I checked out the restroom and there was what I can only hope was a cola that had been spilled and dried to the tub. I’m far from a fancy man, but I got instantly grossed out by the room.

Cleanliness was not a real thing here. Stains on the walls, shower, blankets, literally everywhere. The shower had a scream to it due to lack of pressure. The whole place felt so dirty it was nauseating but it was already so late that we couldn’t go somewhere else. Really hope they do better in the future because this is like every red roof I’ve been in. Horrible.
