Certain staff members were great and they would make great managers of this hotel. The current managers really need to take responsibility and step down and resign. Andy is aJeyill and Hyde mentality personality! He is intoxicated will on the job, swears a lot and is quick to call the police on people and have them kicked out! Days that he is sober he is decent to deal with. The management is been watched throwing peoples mail away!

This was a tired hotel that could use some significant maintenance. However, the price was good, pets were free, the internet worked well, the bed was comfortable and the checkin agent was helpful. If you can't stand to have a lower quality room, this isn't the place for you. But for the price and location, we were satisfied with our stay here.

After several hour drive, we are hoping to get in and have a nice clean room and bed to sleep in. Floors were dirty. Bathroom was dirty. TV didn’t work and the noise from the highway and lights from the parking lot made it almost impossible to sleep. Would not recommend this property.

Clean. Comfortable bed. Had a good quiet sleep. A bit run down. Plexiglass at reception desk and signage in room regarding keeping the deadbolt and latch closed for safety wasn't reassuring but all went well. Pool closed for maintenance.

We had 2 rooms and it is close to Lost Island and restaurants/shopping. The good: I thought the beds were comfortable for simple platform beds. AC worked. The room was tidy and simple. In both rooms the sinks leaked, there was duct tape on the pipes. Our bathroom wall was dirty and I saw a few small bugs in the bathroom. The other room, the walls had some sticky crap on them, it was gross. I heard some guy complaining to the desk anout the duct tape on his shower head. No breakast, probably a good thing. For a cheap sleep we were ok.

Plastic mattress covers

Bed was great black out curtains awesome.shower hot. Bed was super comfy except for the plastic mattress cover. Sheets wouldn't stay on bed and I sweat from the plastic. I suggest they spend a little more for the waterproof mattress covers that are quilted . The mattress will be protected and sheets will stay on I just took it off and sheets stayed on I was cool and slept great

Staff was friendly and helpful. Only issue was the partying and fighting in the floor above me. Guess the police were called and the managers were mad about that! Seemed like dogs were fighting in the hallway or just being loud. But if the managers get mad about the police being called, I definitely don’t think they would care about it if dogs were being noisy in the hallway.
