There were many people loitering in the parking lot, not sure if any were actually staying at the hotel. Some people were caught trying to break into our friend’s car in the middle of the night. Police were called and a report was filed. Police even told our friend to leave the hotel if they could. Staff didn’t seem very concerned about and it was obvious they knew some the ing was going on. Just weird, would definitely NOT recommend staying there. Will be trying to get a refund!

When we arrived, we werent sure if it was the right place. There was ppl all just hanging out in the parking lot staring at the guests as they entered. We got inside and were greeted by a nice man that was never seen again. Are room keys didn’t work. When we got finally in the room it wasn't as clean as I would have liked when staying somewhere. We were in a hurry so we left to the event that we were in town for. When we got back there was no one at the front desk ,which I didnt like seeing as again there was just ppl hanging out in the parking lot. There was a man in the lobby that was ranting about how his information was given out and that his car was stolen off the lot during his stay that he wanted us to know it wasnt a safe place for your car. Finally we gave up waiting for a worker to assist us with the room key not working. We finally got one to work got in the room and thats when we realized how dirty it really was. The duvet was stained and not what you would expect when staying somewhere. After removing it i finally thought i would relax and thats when I found what appeared to be fecal matter on the light fixtures and the box spring cover. We felt like we would rather not stay in such a disgusting place and left the hotel. Dropped off the card keys and finally a worker came out to talk to us. We left to go home so drove 3.5 hrs at midnight.

We spent two nights here and first impressions were sketchy at best. There were a lot of people sitting in their vehicles smoking (due to no smoking policy of motel) in the parking lot, so it made you a little more cautious. The room was surprisingly quiet - faced the golf course and highway not too far away. Staff were very polite and kept the place pretty clean. Bathroom is very small and pillows were flat/cheap. The price was good and all we needed it for was a place to sleep, maybe watch some TV for a bit between getting out to visit things in the area.

The motel is located in a very shady area. At night there were non-residents hanging out in the parking lot drinking and smoking . The listing said breakfast is included but that's a lie, there is no breakfast included. Its close to a lot of fast food places so its convenient but very shady area. The room was clean on the inside.

This entry-level budget hotel was nice, clean, and thee was nice attention to detail. The pool and hot tub were amazing. Great temps and clean. The parking lot was ample and fairly clean. The staff was helpful, courteous and friendly. It's a shame that, though advertised, there is no breakfast and in my 6-night stay there was never any coffee in the dispenser in the lobby. In my opinion as a guest, the hotel advertisement SHOULD be changed to reflect what is actually available. Or at least remove the empty coffee dispenser, cups, stirrers and other amenities that indicate that there is coffee available.

I had chose this location for it's 3.8 reviews and listing for continental breakfast. The property was terrible, dated, parking lot had lots of pot holes. They did not have an elevator the location is not ADA friendly. You have to do stairs to get to the 2nd level rooms. They did not provide any breakfast not even bottled water for their guests. The front desk suggested to walk to the gas station located behind the hotel for bottled water. I was very disappointed that the hotel did not provide a to go baggie breakfast as some other hotels have done thru and after COVID. This location is not close to any restaurants. I do not recommend this hotel, especially if you need ADA accommodations. Definitely not for a family stay. Find something closer to town. This would be a great location for a single person stay especially if you need to be close to PAFB. Otherwise, do yourself the favor of finding a different location.

The manager Bob kept our deposit and said that there's a $50 fee when it was a $40 deposit upon check in, there's no where stated to do The towels and blankets are all dingy and filthy and he won't let you change them for 3 days There's a lady who lives in the hotel kitchen and bathes in the sink that she makes the coffee for guests with The parking lot has lots of abandoned vehicles with sketchy people hanging around the building Guests with dogs running amok with no leashes whatsoever Trash all over the parking lot The only person who's doing anything around there IS Careen who works there This place needs to be audited
