Amazing
Posted on Dec 22, 2025
Really appreciated the politeness of the staff, perhaps owners, at check-in and the following morning. The room was well cleaned and very comfortable. The heater didn't work but it's not the only hotel I experienced that issue so maybe there's a reason. I slept wonderfully, and while it was just moments before 11, I was extended an extra 30 minutes for a late checkout. I would check back in there any day of the week.

I liked management and staff. The shower had immediand hot water. Thumbs up. Breakfast. Thumbs down. Frozen waffles and fruit loops was about it. For the price the place is reasonable. Location is excellent with a nice supermarket across the street.

When entering the hallway it had a strong odor of mold and mildew as well as in the room. I would highly not recommend it.

Booked the room at the last minute because of my feeling sick. We got there at a reasonable time and all I wanted to do was lie down. I felt extremely ill and I didn't want to deal with the grouchy, short and arrogant desk attendant or her nasty looks or attitude. All I needed to do was lie down but due to no information regarding their security deposit of $50 we had to sit and add an application to my phone. After downloading the app and exchanging $50 in cash with my girl we paid the deposit and got our keys for the room. We grabbed our stuff and headed to the room and upon entering that room we were overcome with the smell of moth balls and a strong disinfectant smell. OMG, it was so strong it was sickening. Not what we needed or expected. Not happy about the service or the room and we haven't seen their idea of breakfast yet. God help us and hopefully that will make up for the terrible service and attitude from a horrible employee. If not this is a total zero hotel and should not be able to deal with happy go lucky travelers.
