Upon arrival I was greeted by a women who could barely speak English. Once I checked in everything went through about 5 minutes late she tells me I have to pay a smoking fee of 150 dollars and told me the money would be released after I leave I told her that I called the day before and the guy said there’s no security deposit so she got a attitude and called the manager and he confirmed and agreed with me she automatically thought I smoked (judged me) once I got to the room trash can was full and there was a dirty wash clothe on the refrigerator so I took it to the front and told her the room wasn’t cleaned properly after further inspecting the room I would recommend bring your own cleaning product and sheets room was dusty the shower had built up water residue the knob did not turn so I had to figure it out the toilet seat was yellow towels dingy sheets wrinkled I went to the local Walmart brought new sheets the lady who works on the weekend costumer service is horrible PARKING so there’s about 20 rooms with 8 spots to park if u don’t get there before night time u will be paying 45 to park every night also no help with parking near by no blow dryer no iron or ironing board. It’s a small mom and pop hotel the location is excellent but if u plan on spending time in the room i recommend you spend your money else where

A small room, good enough for two people - no frills. TV very limited and problems with screen, close captions and audio. Great location. Microwave, coffee machine at the check in desk. A bit noisy due to vending machines,

Yellow water in the bathroom. That must be the reason that they don't provide cups. No iron. Nobody in the office to get free filtered water, coffee or tea.
