Econo place to stay. For those who are no frills this place is great. Checkin went smoothly even though I was early by a couple of hours (only because I had a deluxe room that was already available). You may not be so lucky. The continental breakfast was about what you expect, which is to say you shouldn't leave hungry. Overall, I would stay here again.

Basically the hotel was good. They didn’t remake the coffee in the breakfast room but the food offerings were very good. The soaps were tiny but the hot water was great. Not having Roku at my home the TV was hard to figure out. All in all I would definitely stay there again.

Underwhelming

Poor breakfast. Really not worth even going to. General run down look of the property. Terrible TV; not cable, only antenna; only got 3 channels which appeared to be all religious. But staff was friendly, good location. Good price, but you get what you pay for. Will not be back.

I stayed here recently and found it to be an excellent value for the price—a case of getting more than what you pay. The hotel is nice, clean, and affordable, making it an excellent choice for budget-friendly travel. The only thing I noticed was that the staff didn’t seem very talkative, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. For the cost, it exceeded my expectations!

Room was clean and the bed comfortable, but in desperate need of an update.... there is a table and chair for a computer, but nowhere to plug it in, and not many other options for other devices (phones, etc).... Breakfast was rather sparse.

The pictures featured on the ad for this property were deceptive. It showed beautiful hot springs which I asked about and found out they were not near the property, they were 45 min away. The carpet in our room needed vacuuming but the beds and bathroom seemed clean. The Staff were all very friendly and nice. The reviews were all good for this property but I was not impressed. I don’t need anything fancy on my road trip, but I do expect a properly cleaned room and a bit better than this.
