The ease of check-in was nice after a long drive. The room was clean, simple, no frills and exactly what was needed for a shower and some sleep. Very quiet until the neighbor enters their room, then you realize the walls are kind of thin. Fortunately, the noise didn't last long. Bathroom was clean. Being your own toiletries as a small shower bar and a sample pack of conditioning shampoo is all that is provided. I would stay here again if I'm needing an affordable spot. Enjoyable nights stay for a last minute trip. Thank you!!

The hotel manager was courteous. The room was very depressing and smelled like smoke. The bathroom was clean. My pillows on the bed were extremely dirty and downright unsanitary. They had pillowcases but one pillow slipped out and I couldn't believe how filthy they were. They were stained with dirt and who knows what and had hair all over them. I thought about calling for new ones but then I thought why bother. If this is what they're putting on their beds I doubt new ones from the front desk would've been any better. I ended up wrapping them up in bathroom towels and put a jacket over them. I didn't sleep well at all and decided to sleep on top of the bed covers. No telling what the sheets would be like. If I could get a refund I would. I booked it based on the reviews but big mistake. They really need to upgrade all bedding, pillows and beds. This was a last-minute booking and I truly regret it.
