This was a motel with doors opening to the parking lot. Our flight was delayed, so we arrived late (after midnight) and there were half dozen people loitering around the parking lot, at least 3 cars with people sitting inside blasting music. Did not feel safe. The overhead lights in our room did not work - we were told to use the bedside lamps instead. The TV and phone didn't work either. We booked a queen room, but there was only a small full sized bed inside. The hotel photos on the website are incredibly misleading. Definitely would not recommend.

Nice place

Our room was very nice! We made use of the microwave and the fridge. However, we couldn't figure out how to use the TV. The staff really made our stay, though. They were incredibly kind and very helpful. Overall a convenient and clean stay.

Great place to crash for the night.

Nice comfortable place. Dont expect all the bells and whistles, the rooms are pretty sparce but we just needed a place to sleep and for that it was perfect. Seemed pretty clean, and my car was safe in the lot overnight. Id look at it again if I'm back in town for another event.

FILTHY PLACE TO STAY

I checked into a room that was terrible it had a not pleasant odor the bathroom was molded made my skin crawl. So I went to front desk to request a new room only to have been given another room under the same circumstances. The bathroom had black mold, the carpet wasn’t clean nor vacuumed, the bed had burn holes in the sheets and top cover. Just thinking about it makes my body itch There were rooms that were newly renovated new blinds fresh paint etc…..and I saw nothing but MEXICANS occupied. I will never ever book with them ever again nor will I recommend anyone to stay there. ICE NEEDS TO COME RAID THERE ASAP

There was a shooting in the parking lot at 5:30 in the morning on the 2nd day. Management didn’t contact rooms to let guests know whether it was safe to come out or anything.
