"The staff was great, I'll start with that. And this place has so much potential. The TV works. The AC works well. The actual hotel could really be very nice - some of the architecture is really cool. But it is not a place I'd book a 2nd time.
I can't speculate as to why certain things are the way they are, if it's finances, the clientele, or the care/concern of the actual owners, but there are just a lot of things about this place that are lacking.
There were only two small bath towels in our room that in my opinion were questionable as to whether or not they'd even been laundered. Like I was not sure if I was cleaner before or after my shower. Were they clean or is the owner just not willing to pay the extra for bleach to use when laundering the towels? I don't know. But I had very little confidence in the towels and all the linens in general. There were 3 pillows on the bed, with really not-very-clean-looking pillow cases. And the pillows themselves were misshapen and probably quite old.
There were a lot of people loitering around smoking, including one of the housekeepers. And at one point it smelled like pot outside our door. Our room, a non-smoking room, smelled just like any old hotel room that's been smoked in since 1960.
I hate to make a bad review because making people less likely to book it won't make the owners have more money to invest in this property, but they really need to try harder."
"Parking was right behind the hotel and was free. Breakfast was a $7 coupon for the coffee place attached to the hotel. This basically covered the cost of a breakfast sandwich.
Hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. "
"Staff was friendly, rates were good for the room I got. The hotel is older, but the room was clean…I had a Non-smoking room, but the room still had an odor of smoke, I didn’t ask for a different room because it wasn’t a really strong odor but was obvious that it had been a smoking room at one time"
"The staff was great and check-in was a breeze. The room was large and serviceable, but there were stains in the carpet, the bed covering, and one of the large towels. The room was mostly clean, though, and had no ill smell…just well-used and a bit out-dated. The treadmill in the fitness center was in disrepair and there were multiple boxes of AC units being stored in there. The hospitality made this a 4/5, otherwise it was a 3/5."
"This is a Motel, the lobby was sparse, the stay noisy some concern on security - deadbolt on door was difficult to latch. - door allowed outside noise into the room. Our room was next to motel lobby - it was loud all night. Bed slightly uncomfortable. There was a dirt race track nearby that was very loud Saturday night, suggest not staying there weekends due to the noise. Hotel next door was same price point , had free breakfast and usable lobby."
