Terrible property, tried to overcharge from rate booked with Expedia. Then demanded $400 security deposit paid in cash. Door key would not work (proximity) & was told staff would have to let us in room each time. DO NOT BOOK!

The rooms were dirty when we got there I used its cloth to clean up and was charged $40 because I got the towels dirty was told I should’ve came to the front and asked for a mop. I was willing to go to Walmart and replace towels with better quality towels, they said it was their policy and they offered me to take home the dirty towels.

When I arrived early for check in, I was told very curtly that my room would be ready at 3pm. I returned at around 2:40pm, got my keys, and payed the $200 deposit (pretty high and actually cost more than what I paid to stay for two nights) and was told the room would be ready at 3pm. I waited in my car, and at 3:15, the room was still not ready (highly unprofessional cleaner who enjoyed taking his sweet time regardless of the check in time). I started to walk back inside to ask, and was shouted at by i'm assuming the receptionist in the parking lot that it would be just five more minutes. I saw the cleaner, and despite saying I needed to be in the room asap since I had a place to be at 4pm, he reiterated the 5 minutes. 10 minutes later, he was still not done so I went inside to ask what the holdup was. Begrudgingly, the same receptionist said she would book me in another room, and I finally got in half an hour after I was supposed to be checked in. Needless to say, I was also late for my 4pm appointment. Overall, considering what I paid for the room, it wasn't a bad hotel aside from the general location, but the extremely poor customer service just soured everything else about it.
