    The room was bare. A bed a tv and fridge with microwave on top of it. The iron was still on the floor lol. I personally enjoyed the momma bear and her babies. But as I said in the beginning if your looking for just a bed then this is your spot. It's really close to town too. pillows and bed were comfy. A extra blanket would be nice since the heat is controlled.

    Even though check-in was at the property, we had to check out at another hotel, there were no coffee makers in the room, the bathroom door was too small for my mother who uses a standard walker to get around, to get it thru the door, the toilet dispenser was missing the roll holder, so toilet paper was left on the shoulder tub lege. No luggage holders to place our luggage on, so everything had to sit on the floor. It was a room with two beds, and a refrigerator, and nothing else worth mentioning.

    Price was better than any other hotel in the area, including the Motel-6. Room was clean.

    when we arrived, the office was closed and we had to go down the road to check in at another hotel’s office. the area seemed sketchy and made us a little nervous to stay. it was a little noisy and the room was outdated & smelled musty. the bathroom had a wobbly toilet and there was some signs of prior damage to the hotel on the walls/door. would not recommend staying here.

    it was a good rate for booking last minute and the staff was very nice and friendly.

    There was a random kitchen cabinet sitting on the floor not sure for what it held a iron. The look of the back of the hotel eww.

    Wish the bath room was updated, a luggage holder. Wish they would of told me they shared their ice machine and pool with howard johnson.But definitely paid what i got. Thankfully the a/c worked!!
