2/10 Poor

HORRIBLE
Hair everywhere like it waa never cleaned, tv didnt work came on but was there was only a blue screen, came back late after a wrestling tournament to a bed pulled sheers off to check for bugs nope the felt like material blanket was covered in long black hair, my hair is long but i have caramel colored hair, too exhausted so slept with no blanket. Horrible you get what you paid for. There's a fairfield inn or holiday inn express, both within a minute away, suggested you call them pay the extra cash to relax in a bed that you can trust.

Vincent, 1-night trip

The property was kind of in the back away from the main road which I liked. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Definitely looking forward to my next stay here

Eric, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Better than sleeping in the car
The good part was it was 1/2 the price of neighboring hotels on an Ohio State home football weekend, where all hotels were price-gouging. Otherwise, it was a place to get a few hours of sleep and take a shower.

4/10 Fair

The shower had just a extremely hot water or extremely cold water, very inconvenient.

Kevin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was decent this time. Small roaches kept me on my toes all night. Other than the unexpected company, it was alright.
Michael, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

room had a strong unpleasant odor, noisy occupants with children next door that were up all night. woman outside walking past the rooms looked to be under the influence or suffering mental disorder.
Vincent, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place was so disgusting. It doesn’t make any sense.
Micah, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The staff was very nice. Buuut our room had no hot water. Even letting it run for a long time. They had one pillow for 2 people. No hairdryer like it was suppose to. I guess you get what you pay for.
Raelynn, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

When sitting on the bed, table between beds had a sticky substance that had dried on table and floor. Behind the door in the bathroom had not been cleaned, dirty towel still hanging from previous guest and used bar of soap in shower.
