the staff were super helpful, they allowed me to check in a few hours early (with a call ahead). parking was not a hassle and getting to my room was fine, but it was noisy at night, the door to our room was worrisome as you could hear and see on the inside but on the outside it looked normal. in all honesty i probably would stay again there is absolutely nothing better (i know there’s worse).

Rhonda

Disliked: Amenities
Room smelled very fresh. At our location (room 105) it was very noisy with people. The room was situated in front of three handicap parking spaces where we couldn't even park our car but others parked there to unload at all hours of the night. The door had a gap even when locked and the roar from the highway was always audible. The coffee was flavorful but ended at 9:00 a.m. Hotel situated close to a waffle House, an Asian restaurant and a taco stand that made delicious tacos.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff is friendly but the room is not very clean and very stuffy since the ac unit does not work. Though it was reported and the “exchanged” the unit but it’s replaced with one that seems to be in worse condition. I tried asking for a different room with a working unit but seems more a hassle as they just offer to “fix” or exchange it instead. Though the room is non-smoking but the door is not very seal so people smoking outside will come into the room. Also there were a couple little gecko that showed up. The mini fridge in the room does not really work either but at least there’s a microwave so if you need to heat up food and get the room more hot and stuffy, it will get the job done.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was given a double room although the facility was pretty empty. I’m traveling alone so the double room was no benefit to me with smaller beds. The photos of the rooms need to be updated as they are highly deceiving. The room was extremely hot and took hours to cool down, the sheets smelled and there were flies in the room.

The staff was quite friendly checking in and out. Gave me some nice ideas on places to go/things to do. The room itself was a bit daunting. Needs updates and better up keep for sure. My room never got serviced the 4 days I was there. This was a last minute trip...was grateful to get a room but I wouldn't return.

It was decent. There was hair in the bathtub so that freaked me out a bit. Probably wouldn't stay here again but it's good if you just need somewhere to crash for a night for a cheap price.
