Great place for a quick stay. All staff, especially the lady up front were super nice and accommodating! Thank you for switching us to a double bed room so quickly! Will definitely stay here again.

you get what you pay for
if you just need a bed to sleep and not all the extras you get from a hotel is a good place to stay

A lot of people walking in and out of the property. Room next door to mine seems to have long term tenants. Very noisy.

I admire that the owner wants to make something of this delapidated property, but don't put people in rooms that have not been renovated yet. Gaps in windows and doors that let bugs in; floors that are uneven and feel like you'll fall through; mattresses that Creek and groan because the springs are totally shot. These and many other items need to be upgraded BEFORE allowing guests to stay in them. And the low price does not justify the poor conditions. Please take more pride in your business.

NO ONE AT THE DESK. Horrible experience ever. Tried calling to let them know that we will be arriving late but no answer. Arrived there late in the night, there's no one at desk and the number that they posted was different from the app but still no one answered. Tried ringing the doorbell and knocking on the door. We're so tired from the long drive we did (15hrs) so we decided to just sleep in the car until the morning since it was posted that there will be somebody by 7am. We could at least sleep a couple more hours and take a shower before we can continue on driving. Morning came but still nobody to be found. By 715am the door was open but still the room/house was empty, found 2 slices of pizza left out on top of the microwave and used paper plate on the table that looked like somebody ate there. So we tried calling again on the phone, calling out, ringing the bell, knocking, pressing the doorbell-still NO answer. We decided to eat breakfast first and still gave them one more try after eating since we already paid for the fee. Came back at 825am and tried calling again on the phone, calling out again-loudly, ringing the bell, knocking, pressing the doorbell-still NO ONE.
