What is shown in the pictures is not what you get. Room smells, is dirty, and there were cigarette burn holes in the bedding. The area is not to great either. Would not stay here again.

Important features all good but no frills

The room was spartan, no closet to hang your clothes, no coffee pot, but the important things a good shower, good toilet, good heater, good king sized bed, large refrigerator, microwave, and good large screen tv were in excellent condition so I was content!

MERCEDITA

Did not feel safe. On our first stay, there was a scuffle and shouting next door in the middle of the night that lasted for a long time. We gave this place another chance. On our second stay, a car alarm went off in the middle of the night and the police made an appearance. But their questions were not about the attempted car break-in but of another nature. We will not be returning.

Don't stay here

Showed up a bit early and tried to check in. Wouldn't let me check in early which I understand but then offered to let me check in early for $100. I waited and when I finally was able to check in the room was a disgusting. Used condoms all over the bed beer bottles and cans everywhere.i asked for a refund but they refused. Then they made me wait and told me they would get me another room. I paid for a king size bed and ended up getting a room with a full size bed. I'm usually pretty understanding but this was the worst experience I've ever had. Made me wait after check in time and then downgraded me without offering a discount or refund.
