Ice machine did not work. Room really could use a chair other than the desk chair. The stair at the end put you in a dirt, rock and sand area. A walkway would be nice. The room was very comfortable and clean. Bed was good. I would recommend it

Liked: Staff & service
The staff was respectful and responsive to our requests. The shower stall was too small and the shower head was not movable, so we needed to turn off the water to soap up and then turn back on the shower to rinse. The ice machine was not working. The remote for the TV needed new batteries that were replaced promptly. The pipe under the bathroom sink leaked so there was a waste basket under it to catch most of the water.

Dirty room and rude owner. WE CLEANED for 2 hours.

I am disabled and asked for a 1st floor room. Owner snapped no availability, but the parking lot was empty. Asked if he needed both vehicles info. Snaps, I'm not responsible for 2nd vehicle. Caught me off guard, normally no hotel is, but, I was concerned about him towing it. We walked in and it initially looked clean because it is tile floors and what looks like newer furniture. Unfortunately, it was not clean at all. I should have taken pics, but we were more concerned about cleaning. We left, went to Walmart to get cleaning supplies and spent almost 2 HOURS CLEANING. The bathroom was disgusting. I sprayed the walls with bathroom spray and the brown dirt just melted into the drain. Should have bought towels as some of them were so nasty. I seriously don't believe the room has been cleaned in years. The dirt was so bad. It even looked like there was blood on the bathroom wall. We went through more than an entire roll of paper towels. We didn't want to approach the owner as he was extremely rude from the start. Around 8pm that night, we were in bed relaxing before falling asleep and there's a loud knock at the door that scared us. It was the owner screaming at my husband that I needed to move my vehicle from the disabled parking. He said, she IS disabled, but he refused to listen and my husband grabbed my keys. I then walked out in my pj's argued with him, pointing out my handicap placard and my huge scars. He finally told us to leave it. Paid for 3 nights, left after 2.

Overall, very happy.

Overall, I was very happy with my stay. Things were clean and functional. The only drawback for me, personally, was the fact that the big fluffy lovely towels were heavily scented from scented laundry products. Not a good thing for those with chemical sensitivities. I couldn't use them.

Never stay here

When you can’t stay because of the hotel is not as expected. The reviews are manufactured and still have to pay, your system does not work for us.
