The staff was very nice. The bed was comfy and clean and the bathroom amenities were nice. But the place smelled like rotting mold, old smoke and mustiness. The bathroom door had a complete a hole through it where the doorstop was. It was good in a pinch, but I wouldn’t want to stay more than one night.

Overall our stay was great. The place was clean and the staff was friendly. Only complaint was linens. Our room was booked for 4 people and it only had 2 towels. But when I asked housekeeping for more towels they gave them no problem.

The entire hotel smells of smoke and I’m a smoker! I can’t imagine what the non smokers think. The lobby is unlocked all night so anybody can come and go as they please. It’s clear that they aren’t receiving any support from corporate. The employees are wonderful but they can only work with what they’re given. This could be a beautiful hotel with the right investment.

I accidentally booked at this location, but stuck with the choice since it was so late in our travels that day. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The front desk clerk was very kind and offered several options for a late check out. The beds were super comfortable. The cleaning staff were friendly too. Great accidental choice, I would definitely book again!

Don’t Do It
Hate to give negative reviews, but this hotel is dirty, drab, and disgusting. Hole in the bath towel, chipped paint on the door, stopped-up sink, dirty finger marks on the bathroom door, peeled off chair “leather”, unfinished ceiling repairs, fruit flies on the breakfast bar, so many turn-offs. Front desk staff were cordial, though.
