    No secure doors or security cams. Would not have felt safe without my partner. The public spaces were pretty dirty. Our room was surprisingly clean but the carpet was questionable enough to keep socks on

    Right next to a giant gas station market for easy access to provisions.

    There was not a microwave, there were holes in the curtains, it smelled like mildew, someone pounded on our door in the morning before check out but didn't say anything or stay when we opened the door, the lobby area was dirty and not finished, there were beds and things in the parking lot.

    The check in process was easy and the room was decent. The shower had hot water which was nice.

    Needs updated, bathroom door would stick so you couldn't close it, the smoke detector wasn't put up in the room, just the hole and wire. I was a bit concerned for that.

    T.v not working the greatest, most channels were all static Our room, as advertised, did not have frig or microwave Bathroom set up poor, no counter top to put any personal items on. Hole in the curtains Hallways VERY stuffy and hot. No A.C in common areas Not enough lights in the room

    Staff was very nice Beds were comfortable Room was a good size We met the new owners, of 3 days, and they were already hauling in new furniture, so I think they have good plans to bring this hotel back to life! Many, many things need to be updated.

    The building is really run down, which isn't a huge deal. At first, it was off-putting, but when we got to our room, we were pleasantly surprised. We didn't have a phone or alarm clock, which really didn't bother us.

    The staff was nice. Our room was also nice and clean.

    l Location: not lit up very well, making it difficult to find the front door. Front desk person didn't speak English very well and it was very difficult to communicate with him. I gave him my drivers license for verification, but he continually kept asking my name. He was on the phone with someone else the whole time trying to get us in the room. We didn't realize they were 'remodeling' and the flooring in the bathroom was taped down. There was human feces in the toilet. There was no breakfast.

    location was just off the interstate. had a bed to sleep in.

    Way too expensive for a crappy room. TV picture was fuzzy, advertised a hot breakfast - putting a frozen waffle in a toaster is not my idea of a hot breakfast.

    Should invest in new towels. Need new pillows and have a couple extra available. Don’t leave half full toiletries in bathroom for next guest.
