The staff was awesome in accommodating our needs and answering any questions we have. As for the room we were staying in it’s clean, but there’s stain on the mattresses, sheets and blankets has a smell to it. The bathroom is clean but the toilet is sinking down on one side. The floor in the bathroom near the shower feels like it’s going to crumble down to the lower level of our room. Aside from these issues, everything else is alright.

Rooms were dirty. There was cat poop on the second floor stairs. The bathrooms were moldy and there was a dried up red stuff beading on the bathroom wall. The shower water was greyish when we initially turned on the shower and some black debris that fell out of the shower head. There was random screws and dirt above the standing fridge.

The location is in a cut where it's kind of secluded which is nice for peace and quiet and kind of being away from everything but very convenient to 41 where you can just jump on and off the highway. It does have a somewhat full size refrigerator, stove top and small sink. That is very convenient. However, the AC and heating units look ramshacked. The runes look like each one had a crime scene in it... We had a change from run room to another because the first one didn't have a mirror in it amongst other reasons, but the no mirror was a little creepy. Second room however was much better. It did have a mirror and everything worked even though the air conditioning unit screamed when you turned it on and utilized it. Not a horrible place to go but not the best. Definitely somewhere in the middle as long as you're not super picky.
