My stay started off promising, as the hotel had friendly staff and a decent breakfast that got my day off right. However, the strong cigarette smell in the hallways was off-putting and detracted from my overall experience. Despite these issues, the room was nice and the price seemed fair for what was offered.

I had a pretty rough stay at this hotel. The price was cheap, which initially lured me in, but the overall experience was disappointing. The musty, smoky smell throughout the hotel was unbearable, and I encountered multiple issues with cleanliness, especially concerning ants. On the brighter side, the staff did refund my stay when I raised my complaints, so that was a plus.

I had a very disappointing experience at this hotel. While the price was low, the condition of the rooms and amenities left much to be desired. The cleanliness and odor were major concerns, and I wouldn't recommend staying here if you can avoid it. Parking was also limited, which added frustration to my stay.
