Advertises as a hotel, but is actually a motel.
Smaller than I thought it'd be. No refrigerator to store the food I brought with. The shower head didn't have a whole lot of water pressure, either.

While this property has beautifully remodeled, the area that it is in is scary. As our driver drove us further away from town I wondered why I hadn't checked the location. The buildings were rundown and many were boarded up. There were, possibly, ladies of the night, gang members, drug dealings. The hotel parking lot was full of people 'hanging out, partying, hollering and playing loud music'. I have no complaints about how people live thier lives. I just did not want to be in the middle of all this. I did not feel safe.

the worst experience in a hotel the room was very dirty and smelly the people at the reception very arrogant after check-in I went back to the reception and asked her to change my room because it smells very bad, and the answer of the lady at the reception was "to be honest, they all smell the same" the area where the hotel is located is very dangerous, full of aggressive homeless people I left the hotel to go to the nearby gas station and I was attacked by those homeless people who live in the area of ​​the hotel on the street everything was terrible

Very Pleasant Surprise
We were pleasantly surprised by the property. Our room was large and very clean. It was quiet. The area looked a little sketchy, but there were no problems. The guys at the neighboring gas station were very friendly and helpful. They have a veritable mini store behind the counter if you forget any personal items or need aspirin, toothpaste, shampoo, hairspray, etc. We needed a smoking room, and they are very hard to find. The room did not smell like stale smoke. It was very clean and very large. The staff is very friendly.
