What a sketchy dump!
First, at the entrance of the hotel was a gauntlet of sketchy young people sitting around smoking. I guess they did not see the "no smoking" with 25 ft sign. Or probably just didnt care. This hotel has three floors, no elevator. Since I'm a few months out from knee replacement surgery, of course our room was on the third floor. The first room we were given: photos below. The beds were unmade and the cover of the ac was on the floor. We were offered another room, again on the third floor. As for breakfast, nothing was left, let alone replenished. The carpet was filthy throughout. To make matters worse, it just happened to be our anniversary and we we on a road trip. If it wasnt for the fact that it was late and nothing else was available close, we would have been out of there!

Look elsewhere
We stayed two nights, the first room smelled so bad we asked to be moved the next morning. The second room was a bit better but was also smelly. Seemed to come from the A/C units. Breakfast was basically granola bars but the coffee was pretty decent. The staff were nice and accommodating.

Don’t believe the photos or the description!!!
Just needed a clean place to rest for the night while on the road & do a load of laundry. Laundry room was out of order. Place looks NOTHING like the photos. Hair all over bathroom floor. Musty odor. People who seem to live there are out front smoking always. Breakfast was wrapped sweets and granola bars. Definitely will not return here.

Do not stay
This was not a pleasant stay, the whole building smelt like it had water damage and each room was filthy, nothing was cleaned besides bedsheets. Carpet was ripped up, bugs flying through the broken screen, and paper thin comforter.
