This property needs some serious updating. The homes behind the hotel are concerning, witnessed several people pull into the parking lot, walk back to the house and come back rather quickly to leave. Doesn't make a good image for the hotel. Breakfast was very limited and didn't taste very fresh. Bed linens were dirty and very wrinkled.

Check in was easy, but parking was terrible. After check in we went to our room to only was it not as described it smelled terrible of mold and dampness. Is was musty and gross. When we went to ask to be moved was told no other rooms where available. It was 330/4 am so we where limited on options at this point. The beds where absolutely disgusting there was what looked like blood stains , the sink was dirty. After waking up we all felt sick from the musty room. While getting ready to pack up a cleaning person walked right in!! No knocking or warning just came right in the room while we where showering and getting ready. Absolutely would never recommend, had we had time I would have canceled and booked a different place.
