Average and clean

Good little spot right off the main Highway with lots of dining /restaurants around. A tad expensive for the room and amenities but used my hotels.com cash to cut the price.

Extra hold

My fiancé smokes outside and an extra hold was put on my room because he smelt like smoke after smoking outside. I wasn’t informed of this extra hold until I checked out and the room didn’t smell like smoke and not once did he smoke inside. Besides that our stay was good except for the tornado that tore thru the motel Next door

We were disappointed that the pool and hot tub are closed, and didn't know that before booking. Other than that it all seems fine. Haven't been to breakfast yet so can't comment, but I'm sure it will be fine as well.

Trip to Texas

It was nice, but they didn't give us a room on the top floor as I had hoped. Again I know its about availability but due to that we had people running around above us til 11:30 first night. It got better the next 2 nights. It was comfortable for the most part.

We booked specifically because of the indoor pool and hot tub for our sons birthday. When we checked in, we were not told it was closed and when we went to get in the pool, there was a sign on the door. When we asked the clerk, she said “yeah, sorry”…so disappointing.

Get the pool fixed.

The ladies at check in were very sweet. They made check in pleasant & fast. One that was training & one that was the trainer. However, I’m leaving a review because of the hot tub / pool. We stayed here a year ago and the pool & hot tub were closed down. Now, a year later they were “up & running” but the water was so cold that your body literally hurt after being in there for a short time. The paint was peeling off the stairs and what had been peeled up was laying all over the place. The hot tub itself didn’t even turn on. I’m only leaving a review because one year later it’s still not fixed & the entire reason we pick this hotel over others in the area was because it had an indoor pool & there was bad weather forecasted. It wasn’t even worth to additional cost.
