They have done a good job on this property. While it is not on par with some nearby properties it is a great value at the price.

Terrible experience
There was no one available at the front desk and no one was answering the phone calls so we couldn’t check-in and we had to leave the property without even checking-in in the middle of the night. It was a terrible experience. We never saw a hotel without a front desk person. I would advise no one should book this hotel for their trips.

Not bad.
It wasn't a bad stay. Fairly easy to find, and close to other facilities to eat and shop. I wish them well with the renovations.

Arrived and the hotel was closed. The place looked like a ghost town, maybe three cars parked on the entire property including mine. Some random guy whom I assume lives there was smoking a cigarette by the door told me they would be back at 4 o’clock. I went to another hotel down the street that wasn’t closed. I later found Google reviews saying similar things. I highly recommend that Expedia as well as other travel sites pull this hotel from their websites.

Great for a weekend!
We stayed for the weekend for a convention. It was a no frills place to sleep and we didn’t have a stopper in our bathtub for some reason. If you just need a place to crash for a weekend this is your place.
