Great little hotel!

This was my 3rd time staying here for the Mountains 2 Beach Marathon. Great staff and conveniently located near finish line area.
Clarence, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

This was the quest hotel we've ever stayed out. No towels, no toilet paper, they weren't even going to give us a key card because they didn't have any. They had to go find a random one to give us. Nothing worked, everything was dirty and gross. Tub was worthless. No coffee just a dirty gross coffee pot.
The nasty front door
The throw away coffee filter holder. Been used a dozen times I'm sure
Angie, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

But needs change, And up keep and upgrading. Would not recommend and would not stay again. Again staff excellent!!!!!!!!!!

6/10 Okay

Location is good. Property is bad. Nothing for guests to break because almost everything is very broken.
Weiai, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The hotel has not been updated in years. Towels old and bare not matching. Tv internet spotty always buffering. Ice machine broken and window screen torn. Soap was tiny and didn’t lather up. Only good thing was the lady working in the office she was nice and helpful.
Yolanda, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I was charged an additional twenty for booking through Expedia. The property managers child was yelling down the hall until midnight when the power went out for the third time. And they finally decided to leave the breaker off which meant no fan or lights. I had to use my phone flashlight in the restroom and shower. Plus it was hot and I sweat all night. Don't stay here, it's not worth it.
andrew, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

It was fine if you just want to sleep. No A/C which you don’t necessarily need. No fridge which I did need. Overall, it was fine to simply sleep there.
Justin, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I booked the same day as the reservation and I got a call within an hour to tell me that they double booked. That the person that was supposed to check out that day did not so they had to cancel my reservation.
Blanca, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Extremely outdated. Needs major facelift.
