Surprisingly Nice for the Price

This was very affordable hotel so I thought it might not be great. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and cleanliness of the room and staff. Would stay again if ever in town.

The rooms are very outdated and worn. My rom was not very clean. Coins on floor and chewed gum on floor between bed and middle night stand. Breakfast area not taken care of as garbage overflowing and tables not getting wiped down. Staff that checked me in was in pajamas. I will not return

Terrible hotel

The hotel room was terrible. The bath tub leaked with smelly moldy water, the towels were stained with the i think was feces and finding clumps of random hair on “clean sheets”. The entire experience was terrible. Do not recommend.
