Disliked: Amenities
PROS: Nice water pressure, air conditioner cooled the room, large room, comfortable chair & bed, nice people. Not terribly run down for its age but it is showing its age. I like easy access to the room. CONS: Advertised breakfast was a joke. Luke warm coffee, packaged sweet bun, and orange drink. The air conditioner was very noisy which made sleeping difficult. The entry door I used had bird droppings on the handle. I would not expect the nest to be moved but I would have expected them to clean the handle and the pile on the step. All-in-all their regular price is fair enough. I would not stay there at the holiday weekend rate again.

The owner was very friendly and gave us good directions to the honor band concert. Nothing fancy but very comfortable. The towels and sheets were bright white and smelled fresh.

The manager and her husband are sweet and very helpful. The room is solid with a very comfortable bed, a fridge and a microwave. Good deal for the very good price.

It was a very basic room. Air conditioner work on high only. Towels were old and dirty. Parking lot was a mess. All in all. It served our purpose for a one night sleep. But get breakfast somewhere else.

One of the best places we've stayed during the past 6 months of traveling the country. Now, it really depends on which building you stay in. We couldn't stay in the south building at all due to some water damage, but the staff was very kind despite our complaint and promptly put us in the north building in a lovely retro room. Completely quiet, large, comfortable and everything worked great. Actually incredibly rare features for cheaper places, about 100 hotels and none of them had all of those features. The only thing about this place is the north building didn't have outside doors to the room. Would probably stay longer next time.
