Had a little trouble with the check in getting the correct room, and the key to work with the room, but the staff was incredibly responsive and helpful in fixing the issue! They were great! That is not a complaint at all…quite the opposite, they were great!!

I stayed there 2 nights. There was no room service and I came back to dirty towels, unmade beds and trash bins still full after a day of travel. There was also an issue with the pet deposit. The front desk staff were nice.

My room smelled quite unpleasant and was very warm. The window did not lock properly so did not feel comfortable opening it overnight, and the supplied air conditioner unit was very loud. Bedside table was somewhat sticky.

Looks like nobody cleaned the room: dust and cobwebs on the ceiling and lamp. The faucet in the sink is barely holding up, and it's scary to use it because it seems like it will break with just one movement. The staff were friendly and helpful. And you will not find a hair dryer in the room or motel they don't have it.

Photos looked nice, but they were misleading. Had to shoulder-check the door to open it every time, and I’m a fairly big/strong guy; my wife could not open the door. The bed was the only halfway-decent part of the stay, and it was halfway-decent. The floorboards were all coming up, I scraped my foot several times. Every piece of furniture/surface was dented or broken, even the bathtub had a few big gouges in it. There were wood screws sticking out of the walls, affixed to nothing but the wall. The restaurant on site doesn’t open until after checkout time, the next closest restaurant is McDonald’s, an 11-minute walk. They mention housekeeping online, we did not experience this, our room was untouched. Will not return, do not recommend.

This hotel is ok for a quick stopover. We could see daylight around the door so it is not very soundproof and combined with traffic it was noisy. Room was small…barely room for our luggage. Hotel is just alright.
