Dogs in other rooms barking nonstop, can hear everything from nextdoor rooms. Stains on bedding, cleaning products left in bathroom. Large hole in bathroom wall to outside covered with piece of wood. Staff was extremely nice, check in and check out super easy.

This hotel was horrible. Towels were dirty and stained, Blood on the wall, sheets looked unclean,burn holes in bed sheet covers, shower was filthy. We spend our money as well as trusting that we will be provided with a clean and sanitary room. When the company fails this and says we’re not able to be refunded it is extremely unfair!!! I did not stay the night immediately booked somewhere else and glad I did.

They charged a refundable deposit, which Expedia did not mention at time of booking. Exterior was old, area was questionable such that it appeared there were unhoused ppl staying there. 2 SC Police officers arrived at some point and were speaking to other motel guests. Room was TINY. Bed was comfortable, but sheets and towels looked dirty/dingy. Would not stay here again.

Much better than expected. Nice large walk-in shower and new bathroom. Clean remodel done with quality. Comfortable mattress larger of mini refrigerator with separate freezer. Beside the narrow layout of the structure n parking lot of an old school motel extra parking in the rear.

I recommend staying here for short stays or trying to budget, It was clean for the most part though the bathroom floor was a bit dirty/dusty but nothing major. The wifi was a bit slow at times but overall this was definitely a great deal and I would stay here again for the price. If you're looking for something cheap but worth the money I would stay here it was a nice stay.
