    I didn't like that the water faucets were switched and my grandson got hot water instead of cold when he was going to wash his hands.Also beds were noisy as were the people in the hallway.You can hear everything and at breakfast the cereal my grandson was eating had an eye lash in it.🤷

    It was a bit cheaper than other hotels and room was clean.

    The swimming pool was full of old mattresses which was just a bit concerning.

    The staff was friendly and the check-in was hassle free. I appreciate so much the morning coffee.

    The hotel was dirty, nobody cleaned the room on those days we stayed there, we had to ask for a toilet paper, soap, did our beds. They advertise the hotel has included breakfast, but they just offer old bread and the lady who sets the bread on the shelves does not use any hygiene.

    There are not a lot of things I liked. When we open the fridge to store a bottle of water we had, there was a old milk bottle inside which means they do not clean very well.

    The room wasn’t clean, the volume on the tv kept going out, the heater/ air conditioner was to loud and didn’t want to work right, the shower was nasty dirty and the tub wouldn’t drain.

    The room was not clean we had no other choice but to stay because there was no other motels available. But the room seem like it's been dirty for days the floor was dirty the toilet looked dirty the sheets on the bed look dirty as well. The good thing was I carry extra blanket so I could cover the bed.. really disappointed in the cleaning service

    The guy at the service desk was very nice.

    There was a half eaten granola (I hope) bar on the floor, the curtains were disgustingly filthy, the shower water did not go down the drain, the A/C didn't work, the beds sounded like they were going to fall apart when my kids merely adjusted to go to sleep, the floor was completely warped, the dresser drawers would open by themselves, there was water leak stains on the ceiling, an electrical outlet was completely uncovered and wires were exposed, hair dryer was destroyed in pieces and just sitting there as if it was usable.

    Staff was nice, EVERYTHING else about this hotel was worse than anyone could even imagine.

    My husband had bad experiences with the unprofessional staff everytime he asked for something. The bed was very uncomfortable. Breakfast here is a joke. There was a waffle maker, toast, hard powered donuts and mini muffins. Was out of coffee so I ended up getting breakfast stuff at the gas station next door as well as a coffee. So much for included Breakfast here.

    They charged me $40 extra after I had booked & confirmed online stating I had a pet. $ 40 dollars extra for taxes & pet stay is excessive. Plus taxes were included online in my confirmation

    There wasn't any. They said a pipe burst so there was no breakfast, no water to brush my teeth or shower.

    The lady at the front desk when I went to ask for key after locking myself out of my room told me I am so sick of you man I couldn't believe it it was incredibly rude and incredibly disrespectful and I've never been yelled at for trying to get a key to my room that I paid for

    It was awful. 3 miniuffibs. No cream cheese got the bagels. No.waffle mix. It was terrible
