The front desk manager, Pete, was great - Very friendly, helpful and conversational. The room was nice and was remodeled but did show some chips in the paint. The beds were comfortable and not worn out. Unfortunately, a lot of outside noise filtered into the room from the parking lot but overall it was a nice place with a bit of nostalgia.

Definitely it the cleanest of places I’ve stayed. As always with traveling my intent was not to be holed up on a room the entire time… so the bed was fine and the tv and mini fridge worked. Water pressure and hot water was good and I guess that was all I needed.

The property is pretty run down but we had no other choices so were grateful for a place to stay. Room was clean, bed was comfortable and staff was friendly. Bring a white noise machine - walls are very thin.

Strong urine smell, swamp green pool, black mold in bathroom, horrible rate capitalising on grad weekend even though not full, sketchy folks wandering area, premise not secured with access hallways for guest only being able to open for anyone. We only stayed because we were desperate for a hotel & it was super expensive & not even safe & clean.
