Good customer service, but the room not so good.
The desk clerk was very good. However it was in the room where there were problems. When I turned on the light switch after entering the room, no light came on. The light that was to come on, had been turned off, so I turned it back on. Next the toilet seat was clean, but the toilet seat needs to be replaced because it has missing paint. Finally, the pillows were not King sized for the King sized bed. They were also very flat. I needed to sleep on two pillows to get the sleeping height I needed. The room and everything else was clean and tidy. One tip I learned from working the front desk in a hotel during the summer is: when the TV is turned on by a customer, always have the TV remote set to Guide. I was able to watch TV, but it took me a while to figure out it out. or Leave directions in the desk drawer in a plastic paper folder, or have it laminated. The part that concerned me the most is that every time I moved on the bed, (North Side closest to the window) the light next to it flickered. I noticed the cord for it was either under the bed frame. I tried to get the light's cord from underneath the bed frame, but couldn't do it because it was too heavy for me to lift. You need two people. Also, the light on the other side of the bed, didn't work even though there was a light bulb in it.

Nice staff. Some improvements in the last year, but this particular room should not have been rented. We had booked a "Deluxe king w. microwave and frig," but were told two days before it was not available on the lowest floor, so they switched us to a room with two queens and no microwave or frig.(needed for my disabled husband's meds). There is no elevator, so we had no choice. The worst part of the room was the shower/tub combo, whose control knob was cracked and so hard to turn on that I had to call the manager to get water. Once it was sort of adjusted, the water turned from freezing to boiling randomly every few seconds. The beds were ok, but the sheets, although washed, ere badly stained. The only "amenity" was a bar of soap.

Pretty sure there a people living full time in this motel. The other guests were noisy all night, including talking at a loud volume in the hallway, allowing their dogs to bark, and slamming into our door in the middle of the night. The bed was clean but the bathroom floor had not been mopped. When we got ready to leave our room the dead bolt jammed leaving us locked in our room. We were able to get out the window before the door lock was opened.

Won’t stay at this location again
We reserved a king deluxe room, but they gave us a twin basic room for the same price. The beds sounded like they were going to break every time you sat down on them. The bed was actually at an angle when you lied on it so your head was lower than your feet if you had it towards the headboard. The air conditioner gave off a foul odor when running and was distractingly loud. The dresser was broken and the drawers so out of alignment that some wouldn’t even open. The room was not clean and there was a lot of hair in the bathroom. There were stains on the towels. The drawers of the dresser that did open had something in them that got all over our clothes. My wife felt unsafe at this hotel and refused to take our dog out by herself. There seemed to be a lot of people loitering in the parking lot. The door lock on the west end of the building was broken and we couldn’t use that door. There was a dead kitten in the parking lot. The only highlight of this hotel was the employee. Barbie tried to make our stay as pleasant as it could be, and was wonderful to talk to. She did everything in her power to make things better and she truly was the best part of this experience.

Facility is not in great shape. Card reader by one back door is inoperable, meaning that one can't get in that door. Staff was helpful, however. Our assigned non-smoking room had obviously been smoked in, and staff quickly moved us to a more acceptable room.

The rating on Expedia makes no sense. This place is terribly rundown. On top of that I had to shower with cold water , and for the price they should at least have shampoo bottles, not just soap.
