Reviews
Great Staff and Location, Rooms need a little TLC
The hotel needs some TLC.
The outdoor pool was good to use but it’s missing some tile and shows its age just a tad. My kids didn’t care and enjoyed it thoroughly.
The room was OK but let’s face it, this is a motel dressed up and the dress is a bit old. The lights directly over the door and next to the door invite flying creatures to enter when you open the door. Lots of spots on the ceiling and drapes appear to be from squishing the flying visitors. We knocked down a few spiders during our stay and also saw a few ants and other insects on the floors. The bathroom had different ceiling tile and my kids noticed a small hole in the tile was plugged with tissue. I think the culprit for letting in ants and such is the door does not seal.. you can see the light from outside with no issue. Oh… the room is very dark too even with the lamps and lights on.
The staff is very nice and commendable. They were super accommodating and I couldn’t find any fault with the staff. The bright spot for sure!

Great pool! Good experience!
Great stay! The staff is all very friendly and helpful. The pool was fantastic. The room worked well for us. It was clean and cool (heat wave!). Great location that is easy to get to and easy to get to the sights.

Cigarette smoke motel
The pictures are deceiving. Do not recommend if you don’t like cigarette smoke. It was everywhere during our stay. 0 stars for room. DEFINITELY not an inn - this is a motel.
Cons:
- First room smelled awful of cigarette smoke so we switched to a different room. 2nd room didn’t smell all that great either - stale smoke odor that now my bags smell of.
- Trying to enjoy the pool with my family while there are people smoking right next to it - awful location for a smoking area
- Breakfast didn’t include a single piece of fresh fruit (no waffle maker like in photos) Just a few limited pre packaged options.
- The bottoms of our feet were black after walking around barefoot on the floors, clearly they are never washed.
