Booked the room and there was another person in the room. The hotel wanted us to share the room. Ridiculous. They blamed hotels.com for the mix up, which we know isn’t the case. Horrible hotel. Never book here!

Solid 2.5 hotel, don’t get too excited
It’s old and dated but the size of rooms and the number of rooms available is great. Breakfast was limited but not bad. Not the healthiest options but wouldn’t expect that for what we pay. It’s a solid 2.5 hotel with good sized rooms.

From the lobby this place looks fine. However, my room was horrible. First, the decor was old and out-dated. Second, although the room was basically clean if you look closer it was not. Third, as I pulled up to my room (first floor, outside entry) someone was looking though the window which was very unsettling.

Okay in the past, but has gone downhill.
I have stayed here several times in the past, but had not been here since 2018 (have stayed here five times in all). This was the first time I was given an "outside" room facing the parking lot, and was overall disappointed with the condition that the room was in, compared to previous rooms. The wall paper is peeling off in several places in the bathroom, and the dressers all looked old and well-used. The bathroom was also extremely dark and reminded me of a dungeon. There is zero light in the shower itself, as what little light that is in the bathroom is directly over the toilet (I prefer a well-lit bathroom, particularly in the shower). Being an "outside" room, it was also extremely loud, and motorcycles and other loud vehicles were heard clearly in the room for the duration of the night. Although my experiences in the past were good, it appears as if the hotel has gone down hill in the last six years. I will not be staying here again.

Has an ok indoor pool
It's an older property and not in the best condition. Staff at the front desk seemed like they didn't want to be there. It seems like they might need a new key machine. The first set of keys didn't work and we had to get more made. One of the house keeping staff was quite welcoming and friendly but the rest of the staff were not. The pool was decent and the water temperature was great but there were not any towels in the pool area at all. The sauna appears to be not in use. Rooms show signs of age - stains on the bathroom ceiling and a small hole in the wall, etc.. Convenient location not far off the interstate. We came to town for Oktoberfest which was a lot of fun.

The pool area was nice. When we first got our keys for the room they didn't work so I had to go and get new keys. Then when we opened the door it was an overwhelming smell of milddew so we called the front desk they had no kind of air freshener. The room cleaner manager gave us rug powder. Then we found bugs in the room and my wife was not happy. We got the room for 4 people my wife, me and our 2 kids we received 1 bath towel, I whent to the front desk they said they had no towels available until the next day at 9am. I whent to the front desk the next morning to report the sink in our room only had hot water and the cold water was shut off because it was leaking and to see if we could get some towels it was about 1030am and the front desk said they had no bath towels for guests. They did fix the water but the maintenance guy was overheard by my wife as saying that he told them about the water leak last week and he was the one that shut the cold water off. I am not impressed by this place and that's why we left a day early. The front desk personnel, the cleaning crew and the maintenance people are great but the owner must only care about profit and less about the property.
