I love my stay here everytime! Very excited to try out the deluxe room next time. The staff were attentive as always and more than willing to help in any way at all. The employees make the hotel a little pocket of sunshine.

Cheapest around, bare bones
Room was pretty bare bones. The hot and cold taps on the sink are backwards, so hot was in the right. Smoke alarm had been taken town and was not present. Floor was pretty sticky. For the price, I wasn't upset, but for sure could use some paint and new flooring under the bed.

Never stayed at this hotel. Booked through third party they ran my card over the phone without my approval and put several deposit charges. Meanwhile I never even was able to stay at the property because no one was at the front desk when going to check in. They refuse to refund my money and deposit for a service I never receive. They are a credit card scam! BEWARE DONT STAY! Unless your desperate but still then don’t give your card details.
