The staff was horrible. We ended up getting a different hotel and not staying there because the front desk lady was just so very rude for sure

The room itself was clean, and the mattress was relatively comfortable. However, it was NOT a king-size mattress as advertised….it was maybe a queen at best, and was on a bare metal frame like what you’d have at camp. No blanket, just a top sheet and thin cloth cover. The fan in the bathroom sounded like a blender. It was unsettling to have people sitting on the curb outside their room and watch me unload. There was hot water for the shower…IF no one else was taking a shower in another room. And there was a surprise $50 deposit required at checkin. (Which I easily got back when I checked out) Pretty bare bones/old. It looks like they are trying to remodel? But there’s a long way to go!

Hell on 11-23-22

This was by far the worst motel I've ever stayed at.The manager was insulting from the get go and criticized the way that I parked in front of the office. It was raining and snowing that night and I couldn't make out the lines of the parking spaces so yes, my parking was a little sloppy, but so what? He told me that he was reluctant to give the room that I had reserved. After relenting and completing the registration form he told me at least 3 times that if I smoked or broke anything in the room that I would forfeit the $30.00 security deposit that I was being charged at the time I checked in. The room was gastley. The unit blew cold air all night. There were no blankets, only a thin sheet and an eaquallly thin bed spread. I unpacked my bag and spread all of my clothes over me to keep warm. Also the refrigerator didn't work and the tv was a mess, no way to watch. btw the picture you show here was nothing like the room. After relating my experience to local relatives, they informed me that this was the local drug and prostitution motel. Enough said.

Had to switch rooms twice to find one with a working TV.. The bed is suicide. They tell you it’s asking but it’s a full with a king headboard.. $50 deposit is required Told front desk clerk that I would be leaving out early that morning around 5:30. He assured me someone would be in the office to refund me.. following morning the lady at the desk stated she didn’t know how to refund and I would have to wait for the property manager to arrive at 6 she didn’t show up until about 6:45.. I will never stay here again! Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else!!

The “owner” is a horrible person. She was rude and actually called me a hoe. They charged me a $30 deposit and demanded it be cash, and tried to only give me a room for 1 night and I reserved for 2. I will never stay there again. It is known as the meth hotel

Place to avoid, does not feel secure/safe

A true "budget" hotel. You get exactly what you pay for which is very little. It took three rooms before I was in one that was minimally acceptable. 1st room the door could be opened without the room key. 2nd room the door appeared to have been kicked in at some point in the past and did not appear secure. 3rd room did not have the same security issues but reflected what was seen in all rooms, very run down and in serious need of refurbishment. The location did say they were in the process of upgrading rooms but I did not get to see any of those. Bring your slippers as you do not want to walk barefoot on the carpet. It appears that some people were living in the hotel long term, was told by some friends later that homeless people were being housed here. Because of security concerns when I left each day all my gear was loaded into my care as I just did feel it would be secure in the room. Not once during my visit did housekeeping enter my room to make the bed, clean or refresh towels. Bring your own toiletries' as what is provided is minimal. Had to ask for shampoo and they were not sure they had any but one bottle was found. I do not recommend this location and will not stay here again.

When I checked into this room it was already 4am and my partner and I were exhausted from 10 hours of driving. This was the only hotel booking people after audit and the photos looked nice enough. Not the case. Our door had a gap that let anyone outside see in, didn’t have a lock and we had to barricade it from the inside to keep in shut. Our A/C was a fire hazard with no cover and open exposed wiring touching the curtains hanging down. There was no tp. There wasn’t a single trash can in the room. We checked in and the room had a full spider web complete with a spider in the bathroom sink. There was no working smoke alarm. It was off the wall and someone had stolen the battery from it. Multiple holes in the drywall in every room. Blood stains on the rugs being used as carpet. The mirror was ripped off the wall and had two screws hanging out of the back of it. And to wrap everything up: they think it’s an acceptable stay and room condition so they refused to refund because “it’s the cheapest room you were gonna find so what did you expect.” I would not in my life recommend ever staying here. It’s not a hotel: it’s a hazard.

Poor service and terrible rooms

Room was dirty, bed was not fully made. Young guy at the counter when asking for a refund was not helpful. There was 2 other younger people in office and when we were trying to get a refund, the girl holding a baby came out and said “you need to just "f****** leave, now. We tried to get at least our cash deposit back and they all three kept saying the we needed to speak to the manager in the morning. We were not going to stay there and left and drove for over 2 hours to get home instead of enjoying the rest of our weekend. I am needing a full refund. Please let me know if you need anything else.

T.V did not work. They only give you one towel. The door did not lock if you were outside of the room. You could just push door open. Beds were clean and comfy but other than that this was a terrible place.
