Thiefs !!
I booked the hotel on Expedia.com, and they charged me $200.70 for two nights, and when I got to the hotel, she charged me another $175 saying they didn't get any of the money from Expedia, and she would have to charge me... so , I paid $375 for a two night stay in a one bedroom small room ... $187 per night... room wasn't that great for that amount of money .... I don't understand the way this works with Expedia... I thought the amount I paid online would cover the reservation, but evidently not... it was a rip off ....

Good to sleep and go. Don’t suggest late check in.
Good place to sleep for the night. The only complaint is that they advertise can check in 24 hours a day and when we got there just after midnight it was very uncomfortable and clear the wife was Very annoyed. I apologized several times for coming so late but thought it was ok since even the office door says they are available 24 hours. The husband was very pleasant. They provide a to go bag breakfast. No pool but we weren’t looking for one. We just needed to rest before getting back in the road. Shower head is very nice.

You get what you pay for but we expected 4 1/2 stars because of the ratings, and got terrible breakfast, filthy bathtub with hair in it and the stopper for the tub was loose floating around, the bed was terrible and the pillows were not good. It was ok and I think they are trying to do good but there’s a lot of competition in the hotel business and there’s some things they need to correct.
