There was a domestic incident hapening for more than 30 minutes in the parking lot outside me sliding glass door that management should have resolved alot sooner to protect the peace of the other tenants and the integrity of the hotel. The towels/wash clothes are very dingy and should be replaced.

Arrived at the property, noticed a lot of sketchy people walking around the parking lot police patrolling the parking lot. The staff was friendly and helpful. Got up to the room and the room smelled like mold and stale cigarettes. The room was clean for as clean as it could be but the smell alone Made you feel uncomfortable that the door coming in to the hotel was falling off its hinges and the people walking around there looked like they were on drugs or something. I felt so uncomfortable. I actually slid chairs in front of the door. . in the future, I think I’ll just continue driving.

This was not a good hotel, the hotel on the outside that you can see from the road it looks fine. The hallways smell like pot, the rooms are not only outdated but not clean, water stains on the ceilings, show ceiling fall apart, stains on the chair the room, broken arm rest of the desk chair, hair in the bathtub, mattress so soft. They have security in the parking lot at dusk to watch the cars. Since it is a pet friendly hotel, there is dog poop all over the grass, the hotel provides plastic bags Conveniently placed, but the guests are not using them and the hotel staff is not cleaning it up. There was a random hotel laundry basket with wheels outside the property. The staff was nice and friendly.

I have never left a bad review, but this hotel was awful. Our room smelled like mildew and old smoke. The bathroom was dirty and needed some repairs. The other people staying there seemed down and out and all in all it was a pretty depressing stay. The only positive was that the man at the front desk was very nice.
