A place where when you have nothing allows for cheap and affordable place to stay even at your lowest, for that I'm most appreciated of this Hotel and it's staff. Though lacking in some areas if you have no where else to go this is a warm and safe if in doors to be for an relatively cheap and fair price

Well light parking. Room was a little dirty and there was a hole in the sheet from a cigarette burn. The person working was super helpful! Brought towels and pillows to the room and our remote didn’t work and he brought up a new one.

Do not recommend

Definitely a budget hotel. Terrible ventilation. My room smelled like pot whenever I would enter. If you book here, they ask for a deposit when you check in. Be sure to get it back when you leave. One positive, they do have cameras in the parking areas.

The person running behind the front desk was awesome. Loved that they upgraded me to a 2 room suite because they ran out of rooms that I had booked. No charge for that. Breakfast was ok. Need a few more choices. Room was great.

Noisy. Motorcycles racing back and forth under our window afternoon and night. Tub was open to the sleeping area rather than the bathroom. No closet or hanging space. Bed was comfy. Breakfast included waffles and biscuits with sausage and gravy.
