Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is great and the staff was helpful. We didn't spend any time in the room, other than sleeping so it was wonderful not to pay high prices. However, the actual room was not very attractive, updated, or even average quality, etc. The room was "worn," including everything in the room.

The hotel was an absolutely great value. Nice clean simple room, and the staff at check-in was super helpful. I left really early in the morning so really didn't have much of a chance to see what was around. There was a few convenience stores for quick snacks and a short drive away was some fast food restaurants

Staff was great.. very warm outside those days and the A/C was perfect always kept me nice and chilled. Shower was set up kinda funny no tub but always had hot water with good pressure. Towels were very gross not even close to white stains on all towels. Cable and Internet blah picture was blurry internet was shotty at best. Beds where comfortable, all and all nice stay if your not looking for anything special. I probably will choose some place else next time..
