Probably the nastiest hotel ever!!!
In all my years of traveling. This was by far the most disappointing, disgusting, filthy, nasty, gross room I've ever had to stay at for even a short period of time....i payed $75 but the roaches were free...thank goodness I've never been in a situation like this before..the roaches were by the dozens and I was dropped off so I could not leave until morning...the girl at desk said i was lying because they had pest control last week...thats one of the biggest lies ever...hotels.com made me take pictures but by morning the roaches went back into hiding...I'm traumatized and the front desk refused a refund and hotels.com did not give me a refund ...I cant imagine a grosser situation. A motel in business just for the sake of money and nothing else....would not have imagined a motel so nasty listed on ] hotels.com!!!!!. I sent photos WITH AN EMAIL LINK YOU SENT TO ME.

We only needed this as a rest stop for our trip so we choose it based on price, location, and the fact it advertised a free continental breakfast. When we went to the lobby to have breakfast before continuing our travels there was nothing there. We asked the person at the desk what time the breakfast was available. We were told with a smile that it would have been available at the time we showed up but they weren't offering it.

The bed and pillows were comfortable, bedsheets were clean and the shower pressure was good. The shower rack seemed ready to fall off the wall, The bed covering had 6 holes from cigarrete burns. The ceiling had a large bubble, ready to fall down from a water leak. The bottom of the front door had a large gap which allowed bugs to enter. The rooms have no sound proofing so you hear all traffic and talking noises from outside.

Booked this for my father & he said he didn’t feel safe and it was very unclean & uncomfortable. He ended up having late check in and left early due to these conditions. The smoke detector wouldn’t stop beeping all night either. I believe in second chances and haven’t stayed myself but always would trust his judgment.

Worst hotel ever
The most disgusting hotel I have ever been in. Advertised breakfast, didn’t even have coffee, not that I would have had it just based on how filthy everything was. Avoid at all cost!

The website advertised amenities such as gym, laundry, and breakfast. However, none of these were available at this property. I was told that the property was renovated months ago, but the website had not been updated since.

We waited for 15min in lobby to check in. We had to call and knock on adjoining apartment door to get someone to come and check us in. We were super tired after being on the road all day! Our room smelled like weed, it was grimy, the towels were dirty. I would suggest trying a different hotel.

Disappointedly Do-Able!!!
My stay was stay able only because Mahim whom worked the front desk was amazing. I felt welcomed and if I wasn't happy with let's say the entire room he would move me. Due to poor residency there were ample TV malfunctions and no remotes. Only one snack and one drink machine on site. Two ice machines and neither one of them worked.
