Some guests have praised the cleanliness of the rooms and the friendliness of the staff. However, please be aware that many reviews highlight the lack of an airport shuttle, requiring expensive taxi journeys to and from the airport.

It was very disgusting. Hair in tub, stains on bed sheets and pillows. Non smoking but smelt of marijuana and cigarettes. No shuttle like other hotels around the area to the airport. Very sketch area and people. Would not recommend to my worst my emeny. Wife and son got rashes, and we stayed literally for our layover which was the same day. They probably got bed bugs too. This place is worse then a redroof inn.

Felt uncomfortable the moment we pulled in. Strange people hanging out in the parking lot. Worried all night that my car and trailer was going to get broken into. It was hard to get to from the highway and it was down a dirt road with minimal signs. We missed it the first time.

Place was disgusting, couldn't even stay a couple hours, definitely not a whole night. Im not one to complain but the place smelled horrible. Super sketchy parking lot. Ants in 1 of the 2 beds. Not sure if it was chemicals I was smelling or not but was hard to breathe in the room even with the windows open.

The staff were very friendly, it was the property that was awful, we felt very unsafe, seemed to be a lot of sketchy activity in parking lot, main lobby. Do not recommend.

There is no shuttle from the airport to the hotel. I was forced to take an unexpected taxi and was charged $50 one way thus turning this inexpensive room into a much more expensive one. And I still need to make arrangements to get to the airport in the morning. The carpet in the hallway is filthy although the room is better. I could have spent this amount of money at a nicer hotel with a convenient ride to the airport. Significantly, there was no warning on the website that I would encounter this expensive challenge.

This hotel is disgusting. If we weren’t exhausted and traveling with children, we would have left immediately, but it was close to midnight. Do not stay here. Period.

Nothing unique, they don’t offer shuttle service as it states in their check in service . The place is nothing like the pictures they advertise. Also, the smell is not good at all. The staff was good and helpful and the place was quiet
