On the up side, this hotel was clean, safe and rather pleasantly furnished. It is readily apparent that improvements are being made to the quality of the rooms and building. Unlike Motel 6, our room included a small refrigerator, microwave, hair dryer, iron and ironing board that one might expect in a pricier hotel. The owner/manager was friendly and helpful.... More

Our initial impression was quite negative. There were dirty, smelly towels left in the room. While in the lobby the next morning, another guest was commenting on the same problem. They have tried to make things better. There is a faint smell of fresh paint, and the tubs have new tile enclosures. But the door frames show decades of water... More

When I stay at a hotel in this price range I don't expect perfection or luxury, but I do expect a clean room and a safe place to sleep. This hotel hit the make on both counts. Like other reviewers have mentioned, you can tell they have been doing some remodeling and are improving the hotel. I was very happy... More

We stay here from time to time when we travel to visit family. When we first began staying there they had some issues as others have mentioned. With each subsequent visit we see good changes and improvements with every new visit. They have clearly put a lot of money into the place and it is showing. I think all the... More

Definitely an older hotel, but it was clean and you can tell they are putting money back into the hotel and remodeling. Great service and for the price you can't beat it. Will stay there again when I'm in the area.

This is an older hotel, but it is clean and a great value if you aren't looking for perfection. Staff was friendly and the owner mentioned quite few things he is working on to improve the hotel. Will stay there again if in the area.

I would never recommend this hotel to anyone. It was NASTY! The Owners or managers were extremely RUDE. Because we stayed 2 nights, instead of changing the sheets they just turned them over. Used the same sheets. The rooms were unclean the service was the worse that I have ever seen anywhere. Please save your money and sleep in your... More

I did not sleep at this hotel, but I did consider this hotel for an event (reception), as it would've allowed for out-of-town guests to have a nice place to stay at the same place as the event. The photos looked really nice, the hotel rates were low, and in online talks with the manager, he offered what seemed like... More
