The outside of the property had trash in the parking lot and a dirty baby diaper in the middle of a parking space. The noise from the highway was unbearable and someone was outside of our room talking ALL night.

Car was broken into while parked at the front door with supposed security securing property. No one called me or informed me until I walked back into building after seeing my windows bust. Prior to that 1-2am couple faught and arguing in the next room. Paid for 2 non refundable days. Asked for contact info on corporate or franchise number no one seemed to be knowledgeable of any of that information. Asked about previous deposit returns that were charged and never received. Knowledge of that remained still to this day unresolved.

The hotel was an ok place to stay. The room key didn’t work when I first got there, which was frustrating. The front desk assistant seemed unaffected by my inconvenience; she didn’t apologize or anything. The same thing happened the next day after I went out and came back the key wouldn’t work. The staff didn’t seem to be concerned about this. Seemed nonplussed. No coffee in the room, which was a disappointment. There was coffee in the main lobby that was tepid and weak— Better than nothing but barely. I asked the front desk for a blow dryer and was informed I had to wait until 11 AM for the manager to arrive, as blow dryers were locked up in her office. So that wasn’t a great impression. The hotel is just OK – – a no-frills place for lodging and underscores the phrase “You get what you pay for.” Keep your expectations low and you won’t be disappointed!
