Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Staff at front desk was kind and prompt. That was about the only positive. Room was out dated. I guess you could say it was clean but hard to say. There was a hole in the bathroom door. The AC sort of worked but sounded like it was going to blow up. Outside was kind of junky. Just random things scattered.
Our "basic" room was essentially a suite with a secondary living area with kitchenette (second larger sink, microwave, mini fridge, and counter space). The value to price was exceptional! We were very pleased! The drywall had clearly been patched in places and there was a stain on the carpet, but everything was clean and the bed was comfortable with 4 very nice pillows. We slept great!
The one thing that stuck out to us about this hotel over the friendly nice lady that helped check us out it's a very affordable hotel and a very nice hotel close to the interstate
I didn’t know you could get a clean and comfortable room for the price charged here anymore. Seriously thought it didn’t exist. It does! This is a great place to stay! Older, yes, but clean all around! Would stay here and save the money anytime. Friendly staff also. And a nice little town for a stopover Go to The Best Western for food and drink. It was awesome and a pretty cool history. Truly unique place.

Buyer beware
We booked and paid for a business suite. When we checked in they gave us a queen suite and told us to like it or leave.
It served its purpose for a quick one nighter… the TV was disappointing. Hard to navigate, very few channels and cable service kept freezing. All HDMI connections appear to have been disabled too. Other than this, decent. Check in clerk was super friendly.
This is a nice affordable hotel. It's a mix of travelers and local workers. We've stayed there twice and it's a good value. The restaurant is temporarily closed, so check if you need it before booking.
