Booked solely on the reviews and pictures.....atleast could have mowed the grounds...got to the room and it something you would expect a frat party would stay. Put our stuff down and left to get something to eat. My wife did not want to stay there. Came back and checked out immediately. Asked for refund and was told bo refunds.

When I walked in the lobby at check-in, I almost turned and left because of the overwhelming smell of Marijuana in the air. I'm not sure who was blazing up in a no smoking hotel, but the entire place reeked of it. Breakfast was a HUGE disappointment and certainly not up to BW standards. The eggs were cold to the touch (below room temperature) and the microwave in the dining area didn't work. As for the usual things considered the norm in most hotel breakfasts, no butter, no artificial sweetener, no yogurt or fruit. As for the staff, both were friendly, and I felt sorry for the daytime guy. He had to man the front desk while also having to prepare and serve breakfast.

I really wanted to give a great review due to the staff being so friendly but unfortunately the property itself doesn’t warrant it. It is dingy and musty inside once you leave the lobby area. The first room I had smelled like old mildewed carpet and urine. I spoke with the gentleman at the front desk which he quickly accommodated changing me to a different room. The moment I stepped into the second room I realized that was as good as it was going to get. The carpets in the room must have never changed which I think lead to the strong musty oder. The lighting was very dim and the phone didn’t work. There were even some used towels hanging on the side of the tub. I went next door and bought a can of Lysol and air freshener just to tough it out for the night but I will NEVER let me repeat NEVER stay at this property again!!!
