Computer Glitch @check-in
Was unable to check-in for over 40min due to computer failure & keycard machine malfunction. A good hotel, easy to find, right off hwy exit, CLEAN & excellent rates. Do not stay if you are a light sleeper as interstate traffic noise is loud throughout the night. Otherwise, a great stay w/a well maintained pool, patio, playground, dogrun & grounds.

Very dirty.
The hotel is run down. The room was very poorly cleaned if cleaned at all. I honestly dont think the bathroom was touched at all, just replaced the towels from the people who checked out before us. The only good think about the property was the big playground for my kids to play on.

No frills
An older property in serious need of an overhaul. That being said, the room was a decent size, bedding was comfortable, hot free breakfast. An OK cheap stay just off the interstate.

Good Stay
It was a good stay. Beds were comfortable, best shower in a hotel ever I think. Right off the highway and close to plenty of restaurants.

Outside below average, inside better.
The building is run down and the entrance was hard to get into. Road Construction everywhere. The inside was pleasant enough. Nothing to brag about. The lock that turns on our door didnt work for extra security. It seemed like this place was a location that construction workers on powerline works stayed. There was a lot of tractor trailer trucks in the parking lot. On a better note the breakfast was nice. Waffles, real eggs, sausage along with the usual continental breakfast items. I more then like would not stay hear again.
