This motel was ok for a one night stay as a traveler passing through. The staff was pleasant and assisted willingly when I needed help turning on the shower. The hotel had a decent looking paint job outside but the room was very old and tired looking. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were terrible. Sometimes it's hard to tell if old things are clean but I think the room was basically clean. Appliances and a/c worked fine.

Hidden fees. I got charged an extra $20 after i booked the room. The first hour we were there i wanted to leave. I felt very u comfortable there. The shower door was shattered it was not a very good night to say the least. If i had known what i was going to be staying in i would have chose somewhere else or stayed in the car.

Not bad
Wasn't bad for the price. Great location for the event I attended. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Only thing I had an issue with was people screaming/slamming doors in the middle of the night and then again early AM. But it's not the hotel's fault if customers act that way.

This turned out to be the age old no tell motel. Most of the people staying there live in the motel long term. There was a lot of odd events and fights in the parking lot with the police involved.

I didn't expect a resort experience at this price point, but this fell far below what it should have been. The previous guests' trash was piled in a corner and left for me to deal with. No towel, just a bathmat. Light bulbs missing. Light switches installed upside down. Popcorn spackling sprayed over switches and outlets. Bathroom floor pealing up. I booked two nights, but I didn't stay the second.

I Suggest no one to stay here. I have a service animal and the guy that checked me in made me pull my personal medical record from my Physician even tho me showing the Proper paperwork for her. Its illegal to ask what and why i have a service animal and hes been reported. Its the Nastius place ive ever stayed at. Wasnt there 10 minutes 5 car loads of cops showed up. People standing outside Screaming to the top of their voices. Kids screaming ALL night long. The pictures that are on here are NOTHING what the rooms look like. They are cold and empty. The walls are painted pink with not even one picture on them. I do not know how this place is passing inspections. If you are looking for a "dope" hotel this is the place to go.
