"The hotel room was clean and reasonably priced, and the beds were comfortable. This place is a good choice.2020-03-02"
"Good location. I thought the hotel was great. The accommodations and employees were nice. The only complaint was that the hot water dispenser for tea had previously been used for coffee, and made the tea taste terrible. I recommend staying here.2016-05-05"

"The hotel had a stale smell. We were given a room far from the elevator. Local TV channels weren't available, and the reception was poor. The hotel clerk insisted it was working fine, but finally moved us to another room. The TV had similar reception problems. The parking lot lights were turned off late at night. We were disappointed. Don't stay here.2021-11-08"
"The hotel was OK for a short stay. The main problem was the pet smell, but it is a pet friendly place.2019-12-04"
"Not a great hotel. Since there's no elevator and I use a cane, getting to and from breakfast was a challenge. Spend more and stay elsewhere.2015-12-08"

"We were pleased with every aspect of our stay at this hotel. We had 3 families with 8 people, and the pool was so much fun for the kids. The staff didn't say anything when they swam before the 10 AM opening time. Great experience.2023-03-07"

"Nice, clean, organized hotel. The staff was friendly and dedicated. Stay here.2017-07-11"
"The hotel smelled like stale cigarette smoke, including our non-smoking room. The bed was hard as a rock. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but I'd suggest looking for alternative accommodations.2017-04-13"
"We've stayed at this hotel before, but this time it wasn't as enjoyable. We got a 1st floor room as requested, but the hallway reeked of cigarette smoke. We could even smell it in our non-smoking room, and the deodorizer used by the housekeeper was even worse. The room was nice and well-kept, but the bathroom wasn't clean enough; there was hair on the floor that was never cleaned.2016-06-15"
"The hotel was a big hard to find. It was clean and the housekeepers tidied up the room and kept towels stocked. Our stay was fine.2015-06-02"

"We stayed at this hotel for 10 nights. The room was great, and the employees were helpful. It was handy having a fridge and stovetop. Towels and linens weren't refreshed every day. There was nowhere for kids to play except the parking lot, though. 2018-07-18"

"This motel was so disgusting. The room was filthy, and there were cigarette burns in the blankets and comforter. There were sirens blaring all night. I didn't feel safe here. Stay away.2022-09-05"
"Good, clean motel room with comfortable beds. The continental breakfast was a farce. The bagels and mini-muffins didn't look appetizing, and there was no milk for the cereal. Worst of all, there was no coffee. Don't stay here.2017-08-29"
"The motel was clean and comfortable. No coffee maker in the room, though.2017-07-30"

"Our smoke-free room smelled like cigarette smoke. The bed was hard and uncomfortable, and the pillows were square and lumpy. We couldn't get the TV to work properly, and it didn't have premium channels that were listed. The hotel clerks were new and unfamiliar with the property, and there were no senior staff members around. We were so disappointed.2022-05-31"

"The hotel was outdated and didn't seem clean. We noticed bird droppings all over the railing surrounding the entrance, and the front door was dirty. The room was dated and smelled musty. We woke up in the morning to tiny ants all over the dresser and garbage. The check-in clerk was fine. We did swim in the pool and saw two fake nails floating in the water. Breakfast was muffins and yogurt, and the table next to ours wasn't clean.2020-08-02"

"Nice hotel. Clean, comfortable room. Pleasant, courteous staff. Nice interior and pool area. There was a little restaurant and bar, and a fire pit outside, but the path to them was poorly lit. Not enough outdoor trash cans to discard of pet waste. I really liked this place.2015-06-23"

"The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the employees were kind. Definitely stay here.2016-10-04"
"Good value. The hotel room was large and plain, but comfortable and clean. The Internet connection didn't work well. The diner next door served as the office; the clerks were also restaurant workers, so service was uneven. There were some fairly nice restaurants within a 10-minute drive. Great for a short stay.2016-08-18"
