Don’t stay here
Had to wait 30+ min to check in as there was no one at the desk. My first room had no hot water and a non working fridge. Moved to a new room. Worse fridge. Towels dirty. No microwave in room. Have to go to the lobby for that

Great place to stay for concerts at Wind Creek
4 of us rode up for a concert at Wind Creek, booked two rooms for one night. For the price is was great, rooms were nice. Just getting lost in the parking lots was fun for 4 motorcycles trying to find the way out and back to the room.lol! Very comfortable rooms for the price!

Not great but definitely will do it again
Well the place itself is not so bad Drove in from NYC. Checked in. Was disappointed that the room didn’t have a microwave nor a coffee maker. So I couldn’t heat up some leftovers i brung with me. Second as my family and myself showered and used up the towels and left for the entire day upon returning was expecting a clean room and fresh towels nope that was not the case. My keycard wasn’t working and the room was as i left it in the morning. Breakfast was what it was waffles toast bread cereal muffins coffee the juice machine wasn’t working. I complained about the dirty room and asked for towels but none was issued and was given some excuse as to why things are the way they are. Long story short. I would definitely stay there again knowing what i know. I would prepare more better I mean. Its affordable. They have a nice swimming pool. And plenty of space for the kids to run around and play. If you can adapt to everything i mentioned it should be a pretty good getaway. With lots to do and see in the surrounding area.

this hotel was dirty, you could see under the door, the tub and sink had cigarette burn. the odor was horrible. We felt like this used to be a nice hotel but has lately been used to house homeless. Would not recommend to anyone .

This is a great hotel. My only complaint is that the room didn't appear to be as clean as it normally is when I stay there and it smelled like tobacco. It was a non-smoking room. I haven't experienced this before so I think It was a quick room turnover. I will continue to book this hotel because it's really a great place to stay.

The pictures that you see are NOT what you will get. Shower valve was inoperative, TV did not work, carpet was dirty and had an odor, bed had no mattress-was box springs only with sheets & cover, vanity sink was disgusting-fiberglass sink was stained badly with cracks and damage-long overdue for replacement. Complained first day, no repairs were made. Front desk couldn't do anything and when I called for manager she told me I got what I paid for and hung up on me. They require $75 damage deposit-I'm supposed to get that back and still waiting. When I was checking in front desk clerk was on the phone yelling at someone and also hung up on them. Learned that half of this motel is shut down because of electrical problems. Don't stay here as all of the pictures you see are not what you will get!! Also fiberglass bathtub was small and stained.

Not satisfied
We have stayed there overnight multiple times. This time was terrible. I wanted a king size mattress and did not find out until I checked in that I was upgraded to 2 doubles which is NOT what I wanted. Only 1 light worked in the room. The remote for tv did not work. I was greatly disappointed on this visit. I am considering looking for another motel to stay at.

Scary!
Room door would not unlock. When unlocked was supposed to be a smoke free room and smelled like an ashtray. Vending machines didn’t work. Came from 4 hours away and found out that the new room wouldn’t lock. Switched to a new room and left for the concert. Missed the first band and had to get my granddaughter medicine for the allergy. Came back after the concert to find out that the key cards that worked earlier no longer worked. Suspicious! Tired and wanted to sleep only to have a women knock on the door waking me and my granddaughter at 1:30 am. Looking for someone named Craig. Unfortunately, my daughter is with us and rented a separate room. She is afraid to fall asleep and can’t afford a different hotel. I loaded my Glock 20 and told her to call me if she needed me. I’ll never trust you again. This place is filthy if I didn’t say so already. We refuse to eat the breakfast and are taking measures to secure our doors. Thank goodness we are only going to be here for a few hours. 👎👎👎👎👎

the place is not bad the problem is that although the rooms say it is not a smoking area they smell of cigarettes the bathrooms in the rooms were clogged and there was no one available to uncover it I had to uncover it myself later I discovered that more of the people who clean the rooms smoke inside it that's why it's the smell of cigarettes in the towels and sheets thanks

Dirty carpet
All in all, I feel I got what I paid for. However...the carpet was absolutely filthy, I put a towel in front of the sink to stand on & wore flip flops when walking around, otherwise my feet got black & I do mean black... The room itself was OK but in need of repair & upgrade. The tub had a very slow drain which backed up water to over my ankles during the coarse of my shower. My door wouldn't lock the 1st morning after check in. I let the front desk know & they said they would have housekeeping look at it. Hence, I had to take my valuables with me that day which was an inconvenience. Once I got back in the evening, the door was locked but my key wouldn't open it. 3 trips to the front desk didn't fix it & the maintenance guy had to be called. He arrived quickly & fixed this issue for which I was very thankful. In addition, front desk staff were friendly & helpful. The bed & pillows were very comfortable & the TV worked great! I get that it this is no frills place to stay but ultimately, the condition of the carpet was unacceptable & unless this was rectified, I would not stay here again.

This shouldn't be listed on Hotels.com!
Run!!! This business was the most rundown and so unprofessional!! After charging us for a bed that was meant for my Autistic grandson, they never put into the gross room. When asked for them to resolve it, they did the following: Said "nothing I can do until housekeeping comes in the morning". "Pay for another room". "Call the person on our wall". Best one yet was "pack up and go somewhere else." Mind you this was at 9pm.
