Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This motel might be adequate for a night but is nonetheless lacking in upkeep and service. I stayed 4 nights in January 2026 and the room was only serviced on one of the mornings prior to check out. When i addressed this each time, the manager's excuse was that they had 50 rooms to clean every day (this motel does not have 50 rooms however the poorly rated motel next door is owned by the same people). This was either a poor excuse at passing the blame to staff or a poor understanding of the duties of running a motel. The air conditioning unit was full of mould and dropping on the TV. I popped the covers and found the filters to be full of dust. I cleaned them in less than one minute but I was kind enough not to bill for my efforts. The bathroom ceiling also has lots of mould on it. The only saving grace was the very comfortable bed, black out curtains, and proximity to town.
