Guests say
Guests appreciated the location of the hotel for its proximity to various attractions, though some mentioned safety concerns in the area. The service, particularly from the staff, received positive remarks, highlighting helpfulness and politeness. However, many reviews pointed to significant cleanliness issues, with complaints about dirty rooms and maintenance problems. Overall, guests found value in the price, but the poor condition of the hotel detracted from their experience.

Anonymous, Dec 2019
Pros (+) Location and price was perfect for us. Nice and clean.
Cons (-) The deodorizer smell was shockingly strong when we first got in. We aired it out and it was okay. We left for the evening and when we came back, there was a powerfully strong smell of skunky weed (marijuana). Maybe that explains the deodorizer? Or that could've been by an adjoining guest; I dunno. Breakfast wasn't available at 6:30, which is unusual for a weekday.

Pros (+) Location was good, staff was friendly. Comfy bed and pillows.
Cons (-) Parking was real tight. Mustard on the ceiling, blood or something on the back of bathroom door. Carpet really dirty. Wi-Fi really really slow

grandpal, May 2015
Pros (+) Enjoyed the TV
Cons (-) Water on the floor of the living area and I had to clean it up as "Staff" couldn't get it right.Shower head was clogged with calcium build up. Shower curtain had large hole on shower head side allowing water on the floor and toilet when we showered. Parking lot was being sealed with hot tar so the smell permeated the area.

Pros (+) The TV lineup was okay
Cons (-) The towels for the shower were literally two different colors. Off white and not so off-white. There was a silver fork in the air vent of my air conditioner. Room was generally Dusty and stuffy

Pros (+) Staff helped us out tremendously in properly accommodating our group. The hotel was convenient.
Cons (-) We reserved 2 rooms for 3 people, but the rooms were really for 2 people. How could 3 adults sleep in 1 king sized bed. I assumed that the reservations took that 3 people were staying per room, and I was expecting a soft bed. Luckily, the staff was able to move one of us to the only available room with a sofa bed. My wife and daughter slept in the one king bed, but I felt we shouldn't have.
