Nothing is normal about this property. The staff are extremely inefficient and they will get your paperwork lost and end up costing you more money. The people that are around this particular property are absolutely looking to get you in trouble and they are there to bribe the hotel workers to get them in a room. Hotel workers usually fall for their bribery and they will let them in on the property. I saw it happen. You’ve been warned. Be smart.

Nao e um lugar sujo, mas o meu banheiro era bem antigo , umas partes com ferrugem aparecendo, o sabonete bem ruim e a cama desconfortável, o ar condicionado faz barulho a noite toda. Nao achei bom custo benefício, mesmo sendo um hotel somente para “descansar” e seguir viagem, nao gostei, na ida fiquei em uma outra rede e la voltaria, nesse nao voltaria.

Okay I'd have to say unique there's really nothing unique about it because I stayed in it when it was a different name it was a Howard Johnson's motel years ago so it's it's I mean it's it's very very nice for the price you pay to stay there I'm not I don't have any complaints it was quiet for the most part I got some rest and what was hot in the shower room was clean and the front desk are very polite and helpful so everything went as it should I give it average because for I mean what I paid to stay there I was looking for a cheap place to stay or cheaper I should say overall I mean it's not bad and plus I'm a smokers that's one of the things I look for too not many hotels anymore let you smoke but then you got smoke outside and you know so it's convenient and I've stayed there many times I'm really glad if I had a probably two dozen times I probably have one one bad experience and it wasn't that bad nothing happened to me so there you go there's your review try to hit on everything that somebody would want to read or maybe they'll look at it and be too long and won't want to read it have a great day
