“This Place Reeks!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed May 30, 2012

Positive: Once we got in the room it was ok.
Negative: Non-smoking is on the 2nd floor so the "fumes" travel up. No elevator. The hallways stink, for lack of a better word. Floors are saggy. Old facility. Lots of parking. Close to a Macaroni Grill. Only 2 tables in breakfast area.

Room Tip: For one night if you are traveling light it's ok.

“Horrible experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed May 10, 2011

Completely horrible experience. The halls smelled strongly of marijuana, the outside door didn't need a card to access (it was broken), thus, anyone could enter, poor management...they turned a blind eye to our report of the illegal activity we saw going on in their hotel & wanted nothing to do with it, we couldn't get all our money back despite the fact that we didn't end up staying there. Save yourself the stress & go elsewhere.

Room Tip: go across the road to a nicer hotel.

“Snowstorm Nightmare”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed March 8, 2011

Stayed overnight and the hotel was fine. They accept dogs which was nice and the room was comfortable and quiet. The night we stayed there was a lot of snow overnight. They did not plow AT ALL the next morning and the parking lot was a mess. We waited a while for them to plow it before we left. No one was helpful about whether it WOULD get plowed or when. We tried to get out and got stuck and had to call a tow truck to get us out. Their only help was to hand us a shovel! If not for that, the stay would have been great but that colored it negative.

“should be called "Filthy, smelly, run-down, scary 8'”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 21, 2009

We asked for a non smoking the hall was FULL of cigarette and marijuana smoke. The room was freezing cold, the numbers were rubbed off the 'heater' so we couldn't tell which was hot or cold. the bed almost lifted off the floor when I sat on it. Smelled musty, and damp. Asked for another room, it wasn't much better, luckly the returned our money and we went across the highway and got a much better room for $20 more.
