Sticky carpets, peeling paint, mold stained caulk and a combination shower/bathtub without a stopper is just a shower you need to step over a wall to get into. Do any hotels clean and make up your room anymore? This one didn't.

Very nice inexpensive motel.
It was a short stay for the 4th. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The deposit was reasonable and the price affordable even for a (neat) homeless person with nowhere to go on the 4th.

There are no words that can describe how awful this place is. The only nice thing I can say is the attendant at the front desk was nice. Other than that, stay clear unless you’re looking for deplorable situations happening at the hotel and a sketchy place to sleep.
