Carpet smells bad, too old. It was an emergency stay. I was put in the back of the complex. Drug dealers running all around all night. Not safe at all. It was about as safe as sleeping in my car in that area. Went to get coffee, seemed quite at that time. Front desk staff looked annoyed at me asking where to go for coffee. I’m sorry I’ve never been here. She had No smile, said it’s around the corner at the restaurant. Note’s posted were were astringent and also slightly rude. I just wanted coffee. No food in rooms nor could leave the area. Then why was there a microwave in my room. It also was older than the 80’s and made terrible noice and wouldn’t get my tv dinner . Why couldn’t I stay in the front? Why was I stuck in the back with obvious problems. I don’t want anyone to loose their job. But could be more friendly and understanding. No smoke detectors and I was scared to walk around bc it was dark. Phone didn’t work either when I tried the front desk. I’ll never stay there again, I’ll sleep in my car. After $80 , I realize that’s not much money but you should at least feel safe. When I checked in, the lady was nice. The ladies that were there when I checked out were just wow 😮

Don not stay here!
Room was disgusting. Sticky carpets. Nothing cleaned. Drains clogged (sink and toilet) cockroaches were also found. Hopefully we didn’t catch any disease or illness from this establishment.

Can't be handicapped with a dog
We didn't end up staying. My husband is a double amputy and we have a small dog so when looking for a hotel we look for a handicap accessible room that is pet friendly and are always willing to pay the extra but they waited till we arrived.... hours late stuck behind an accident that they only have one or the other type of room but not both.

Under new management
My family and I traveled over 400 miles for a family reunion. It’s not our first time and usually have a decent experience. However the first room I was given was dirty and still had other people’s belongings . So they moved me to another room that was clean however, roaches started to come out the wall. My sister and I slept in the same bed because of stains on the sheets . So a two night stay turned into a one. I won’t be going back.

This location leaves a lot to be desired. We chose it because of the value and the promise of breakfast included. Breakfast was cereal, bread for toast, some fruit. The coffee was even lukewarm. The worst part was the juvenile roaches crawling in the breakfast area. Palmetto bugs are understandable in the Carolinas, german roaches, not so much. The pool was nice but getting a wristband to wear for 2 days in order to enter the pool was bothersome, as we were in town for a funeral. At one point we were questioned by someone and I had to return to the room for the bands and he returned 3x to check to see if we had them. There is a lot of upkeep that needs to be done on the hotel; stair treads are falling apart and dangerous, bathroom tiles are cracked, the ac unit was draining into the room, leaving the carpet wet. Overall disappointed in the cleanliness and the treatment by the staff.
