Bathroom too small and need some renovations. Bedding is not up to hotel standards they use bed covers as comforters.
Room was dirty. Fan had so much dust on it we were afraid to turn it on. Bathroom was also dirty. Too much noise from the neighbors.

One night stay
Couldn’t figure how to turn on tv. Remote didn’t turn on tv or adjust the volume. No instructions. No tissue in room. Coffee maker didn’t work and office didn’t open until 9 and we were heading the road. So no coffee before our drive. Hotel needs some updating
The property was old, but thats ok. Our room had no working AC, the tv didnt work and the shower over flowed into the bathroom. I tried to change rooms but there was no one at the front desk and tge second time i went, it was closed.
I stayed here based on reviews and it was a miserable fail. It's obvious that the reviews are fake. Yelling all night long from a family who obviously lives on the property. The room and bathroom are very dated and the bed was not comfortable.
Occupancy was low when I stayed (maybe 4 occupied rooms) They stuck me in a room that had the vending machines and an overflowing trash can right outside the window. My request to move to a quieter room was accommodated, but came with an upcharge of about $30! The garbage cans and dumpster were overflowing with trash with a run down RV in the middle of the parking lot. I did find the staff at the desk friendly and apologetic about my experience at check out.
Came in and the ozone machine was working so the air quality was horrible. The floor was dirty with the beds had pet hair on them. The toilet looked like it hadnt been cleaned in a month. Over all i felt more like a fugitive rather then someone enjoing their vacation. I would not recommend staying here.
