It was a comfortable place to stay for sure. Just keep in mind there is a $100 deposit that needs to be paid up before you check in. However if you keep the room clean you can get that money back at checkout

I just wished the breakfast options each morning would have changed up a bit. At least add bacon, REAL orange juice and not Sunny D and freanch toast sticks. But front desk staff was amazing and available when I needed them. Rooms condition was worse than the pictures online and walls were filthy, had to ask to get a table or something clean by the front desk as cleaning staff was just chatting away.

The hotel is currently under renovation. A lot of painting and maintenance is being done. In my room the carpet was dirty and stained. The couch was dirty and stained. The bathroom was clean and the bed was comfortable. There were roaches in the dresser cabinet. The breakfast was adequate but not great. Asked to check in 15 minutes early and was told it would be $30 extra.

Affordable Price, Comfortable Stay

This hotel offers excellent value at just $75 per night. The rooms are nice and comfortable. The breakfast, particularly the waffles, could be better, but considering the affordable price, it's a minor issue. Overall, it's a good deal for budget-conscious travelers.

It has a decent pool indoor as well as outdoor. (Same pool)

Working its way up

Hotel is obviously in the midst of an upgrade. You can still find some items of the former named hotel around. TVs, bedding, carpet all newer upgrades. Breakfast needs some work, but change tales time and plenty of breakfast spots close by. Great Mexican restaurant next door.

Parking is convenient. Great restaurant next door that serves wonderful Brunch as well as lunch/dinner. Also a Wffle House and Dennys less than a mile away. Plenty of convenient stores. The hotel is not five star. You get what you pay for. It’s clean enough for me. I didn’t see anything wrong with the cleanliness. Old yes and shabby. The King suite is huge and the room is separated, they need to purchase new TVs but I don’t go to the hotel to watch the Telly.

There’s a restaurant/bar literally right next door that’s actually delicious. They serve breakfast starting at 7AM. It’s nothing special, the typical cereals, sausage, eggs, waffles, yogurt, oatmeal, coffee and juice. Staff is really nice. My room was really clean, no complaints. For me it’s all I need in a hotel to shower sleep and have some peace. It is right by the highway and you can hear planes, but you’re at the airport. Staff is just typical folks, polite and accommodating. Didn’t run into a rude person at all. Parking is free and convenient. 24 hour places less than a mile a way like Dennys and Waffle House. Would definitely stay again.
