If window faces highway it can get noisy. Hotel smells of smoke in hallways and seemed to detect a hint of urine on the first floor. No coffee maker in room. Elevator broken "for foreseeable future." Despite issues, stay was better than expected, did not hear any noisy guests. Improve your amenities and replace carpeting.

Did not like it at all! The whole hotel smelled like marijuana and in the reception area someone was passed out on the coach. The room was not clean. The bed sheets had cigarette ash and found a blonde hair on it. There were webs under the tv console and handprints on the ceiling above one of the beds. Walked right out and stayed somewhere else. Don’t stay unless you want to inhale second-hand marijuana smoke and sleep on a filthy bed.

Geen fijne plek. Kamer was erg slecht, hele rare lucht hing er en vies. Gelukkig kregen we een andere die wel wat beter was. We hebben geslapen en zijn de ochtend gelijk weer vroeg vertrokken. Ontbijt stelt ook niets voor. Er is niet eens thee, alleen koffie en super zoete sap.

Eh.....

We asked for a no smoking room. We did not get.that. the entire floor smelled of smoke and pot. Breakfast was fine. We really did not eat here. There were no screens on the windows. It was WAY more expensive for what we were getting just because of the event going on that weekend. Will not go back

Very heavy smoke smell is embedded in everything, even though we had a non-smoking room. We had to keep the windows open all 3 days we were there, and the windows on the third floor did not have anything aside from the glass itself (no mesh). This meant bugs were able to come in and we suffered a lot of mosquito bites. Upsides: staff at the front desk were great and we liked that breakfast was included.

We did not stay at this motel because they did not have the room described on the Expedia listing. We got a double bed instead of a king. We changed our reservation.

The hispanic cleaning ladies were very nice...but everything else whas terrible, the man at the reception desk was so rude and mad most of the time, i got bitten by bed bugs all across my body. The fist night a mirror broke because it wasn't well atached to the door, and i went to the front desk to get help and they gave me a broom and a dustpan to clean it myself. I stayed three nights and every night we had to change rooms because of convenience......our rooms suppose to be no smoking, but the entired floor smell like sigarret....at breaktast everything was out and none was there to refill coffe and the waffle mix....its definitely the worst placed i have stayed.
