Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I recently stayed here for a night. It is in a prime location and so convenient. The pricing is also very reasonable for the area, and the service and staff are truly great. However, I feel the rooms can be maintained more cleanly. Specifically, the flooring in my room had old, noticeable stains that made the space feel less clean. Rest everything felt good about the stay.

The parking lot is not very bright, the only thing is a place of location because there are always people living long term, I do not like it since it is a hotel in passing, but some things do not. Apart from that, there is not much surveillance, much noise, apart from that everything was clean for me, 2 important factors, clean room, good parking or place, location, a little worrying was not relaxed for me, since we had a motorcycle trailer and camperack.

The old man at the front desk was horrible rude and downright mean. I had already booked and paid nnd couldn’t lose my money so I stayed. I had to clean for three hours use my own sheets and towels and it still was uncomfortable. I was offered drugs every time h went outside the room. If was the worst hotel experience u ever had in my entire life.
