The woman (im sorry I forgot her name and she might be the owner) who helped us at the front desk, was soooooooooo nice! The location was perfect for us! Its a couple minutes off 80 West. The room was simple and I even got to soak in tub, yes, there are bathtubs. I loved it! We'll definitely be back when we're out that way.

Left my backpack there and the owner held it for 1 week before I came and got it. It was full of expensive electronics too. Room was outdated, but clean. About what you would expect for the price. I'd stay again for sure.

Not Worth The Price - Won't Stay Again!

The lower unit around the back was in terrible condition. The beds and bath linens and towels were very dirty. The beds had bug remains. The bathroom was in terrible condition, the light above the vanity was busted up and failed to provide any light. The only thing in the room that looked semi-clean was the carpet.
