    I'm not understanding why there is confusion over a reservation from Booking.com when the hotel lists their property on this website and I have a confirmation number - however, this seems to happen at every hotel these days. The lobby & halls were hot, hotter than outside. I'm not staying in the halls though, but it was uncomfortably hot duing the delayed check-in process. Room was very hot because A/C was completely off when I first entered the room. I turned it on and left to run some errands and get dinner before returning.

    Friendly clerk, comfortable room, comfortable bed. There is a new Whataburger right next door which I would have dined at if I didn't already have plans with someone else on the evening of my arrival.

    Property needs a lot of work. Building has a musty smell. One of our first rooms had a leak in the ceiling and the bed was wet, staff quickly gave us another room. Our second room, the toilet had a bad leak and sprayed a stream of water out of both sides when flushed. Bed sheet had what appeared to have a grease stain on it. Our door didn’t shut all the way, it latched and locked but had a lot of light that came though the frame- I checked it multiple times thinking one of the kids didn’t shut it all the way.

    Rooms were clean. Property has many cameras, felt safe. Staff was great, very friendly. Beds were okay for a one night stay, but no more.

    Obviously only interested in getting the room cost for the stay with as little expenditure on the otels part as possible.

    Filth. Stains on carpet, shower stall upper lip had not been even wiped off in YEARS!. Stains on bed spread so bad I put on floor. No way management ever inspected with an eye toward cleanliness.

    Said they didn't have my reservation and wanted $97 MORE than I already paid. I paid through BOOKING.COM and when they "fixed" the missing reservation, they set it to the wrong night -- a day later -- because it was after 11pm by the time I was able to reach someone by phone (which took more than 90 minutes). Booking.com said they were going to refund my money, now they refuse to issue a refund. Nearly $90 was stolen from me.

    The hotel needs to be renovated; however, the bed did seem clean, which is most important. It's also near a main road and highway so it's somewhat loud - the cars and trucks driving by. As a matter of fact, I had to turn on the AC to muffle the sounds from the road and also the loud patrons in and around the hotel. Many of the people staying at the hotel were very low-class ... i.e. loud and disruptive... talking in the hallways late at night ... slamming the door ... hanging outside talking on the phone loudly and sometimes in the hallway. The walls seemed paper thin ... i.e. you could everything in and around the hotel. I won't stay there again mainly, because of the low-class clientele. This hotel is basically a one-night stay hotel ... if that, and only if you can't find another hotel in the area. One other thing, the blankets for the bed are paper thin. I prefer something thicker to provide some protection / warmth.

    They had waffles for breakfast ... where you pour the batter into the waffle-maker. That's always fun to make. However, that doesn't mean that the breakfast was incredible overall, because it wasn't - far from it. Basically, it was cereal, waffles, bananas, coffee, and juice, which is ok, but could be improved. Also, they had a parking space for Veterans, which was nice. Also, the location is easy to find, because it's right off the highway, but that's also a problem as you can read below.

    When we got there after we paid $102 for the room they tried charging us $250 before we got the room which we didn't have the money for. We contacted booking.com about it and since super8 never responded we still have not gotten our money back. This was now a little over 1 month ago.

    We ended up leaving and not staying. The hotel was a mess, it had broken windows and torn screens on the the windows. It smelled like mold in the lobby. The clerk was very rude.

    the only good thing about this hotel is the location. It was right off the highway.
