Aaron, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

There's really nothing I liked about this hotel especially tell me I was going to take 5 to 7 days to get my deposit back on my card which is ridiculous

Nice cheap staycation spot.
LaTricia, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Bed comforter and mattress had a number of mysterious stains.
David, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

First, the email address confirmation had the property's location about 5 miles away, so we had to "Google" the property to find it. The air conditioner would NOT cool the room. And showers from other rooms flooded our room through the walls and bathroom door casing. We couldn't leave fast enough. On the upside, the ice maker worked great!
Robert, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

It was convenient to get to the National Park. Our air conditioning did not cool the room
Joy, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Rooms werent clean, inside smells like mold, dirty toilet paper, flies in room, our bed sheets were dirty with sand and dirt, stayed 4 nights and couldnt get refund to go somewhere else.. i wanna say paranormal activity were in the happenings as we had drawers fly open and bottles of Gatorade were flying off the entertainment center.. room does not come with a bible either. Do not stay here.
Alaina, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Air conditioner leaks water on the floor inside. Shower was dirty. Floor was dirty. Exhaust fan in the bathroom didn't work people arguing in the hallway
Dean, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

We didn’t even feel safe enough to stay here, we left after someone kept watching us and waited outside our door!!! We didn’t even go in the room! We only needed to stay here one night to sleep and got it because it was cheap and every other hotel was almost 200$ for one night. Trust me pay the 200$ for any other place than here!
Mauricio, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Just the right room for the right price.

Just a quick get away for overnight date night.
LaTricia, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Had to ask them to change sheets and I haven’t received my deposit back yet
Dorrel, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Even though the price is temping, do NOT stay here. Our room stank of smoke. There was paint peeling off the walls, and the hallways looked like a warehouse or jail. The bathroom was moldy, the floor was cracked and uneven, and the area and hotel felt dangerous. I left the hotel before even sleeping here because I was concerned my car would get keyed. There’s not even anyone staying here to begin with, and the parking lot was mostly empty. I think everyone gets the idea that this hotel and neighborhood are both beyond saving. Now all we need is for the hotel to go out of business and get demolished for everyone’s good. Do NOT stay here whatever you do.
Anna, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

**DO NOT STAY IN THIS PLACE** The whole place smells like a strange mixture between drvgs and vomit. The door didn't close from the inside and not to mention the bathroom, which was full of mold. The shower had white particles that we didn't know what it was about. We were only there the time necessary to find a better place to stay. We would NEVER go back.
Celeste, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

When we first got to the room it was fine until we opened the fridge to find mold growing in there. After that i proceded to take a shower only to realize that the walls had curly little hairs all over it. I took a washcloth and wiped down the walls the white washcloth then became black. It makes me wonder if they clean how they are supposed to or just do a quick reset. I underatand this is a cheaper establishment, but its still unacceptable.
Nicole, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I asked for a second set of sheets to lay on the bed because i was pretty sure mine were dirty and was told they didn't have any but they had large towels I could use. TV remote didn’t have batteries and my shower didn't get warm. Otherwise friendly staff, easy check-in and convenient for the price.

Staying here for work, has been relatively quiet. Staff is freindly and courteous, building and grounds are clean. Room is spacious and beds are comfortable.
