The hotel was undergoing renovation during our stay, but carpets in the available rooms were not all that clean and there were stains on the bedding.

The stay was very accommodating, friendly, and happy. The motel was average, but appropriate for the price. It needs a good deep-cleaning, especially where the baseboard joins the floor. The pool was empty, and there was green, thick water in the hot tub.

This property (unknowingly) was under major renovation. construction was ongoing, our room (when assigned) was still dirty, unsecure and the window was broken, open & unable to close. We LEFT without staying, yet they still refused to refund our payment. Finally after MANY phone calls they refunded HALF of it.....pitiful.

The hotel was very dirty. The website said there was breakfast offered but when I asked about it we were told there was none offered. The hotel was very run down and I would have left but it was to late to cancel my reservation.

Its connected to a little casino. The rooms are not in very good condition, uncomfortable, and dirty. My wife and I walked into our room and before we could set our bags down, walked back out and told the front we arent staying there. Very poor quality and cleanliness. The front desk was not very helpful with anything.

It's a Howard Johnsons and it has character. Super easy access to the I-15 and walking distance to groceries and fast food.
