The room was adequate. The bed was clean and environment quiet. The edges of the floor could be cleaner and the back of the bathroom door needs attention.

It was adequate, nothing special but provided a clean bed. The floor could have been cleaner and the back of the bathroom door needs attention.
Administration is very nice and it is generally a pleasant motel to stay at!

Exactly what you'd expect
It was pretty much exactly as we expected for a motel. The employees were nice and provided extra towels and helped quickly when our card stopped opening our door. The mattresses were covered in plastic under the sheets so it was comforting to know we were protected from anything icky every time I rolled over, it was crunchy. The room itself looked fine but the bathroom could have used a coat of paint or two. Overall it was perfect for our needs - it was in our budget and we just needed a place to sleep and shower during a long music festival weekend.
This is no exaggeration. I travel for a living. Firstly the rooms in the pictures are NOT the room youll be staying in. They said they were undergoing renovations so those rooms were not available. The replacement rooms were not nearly as nice, and that says a lot. The key cards worked once or twice and then I had to go to the main desk to get a new one twice a day. The room didnt have a tv fridge or microwave. They then brought me a fridge and left it on the floor by the door. The air conditioning unit leaked all over the floor, and i could tell by the stains in the rug this has happened many many times. Undoubtedly leaving mold. The shower was always leaking very hot water, so half the room was a sauna at all times. The tub had mold and stains all over it. There was a smoking area right outside my room, like the bench was at my door, so at all hours i heard peoples conversations a few feet away from where I was trying to sleep. The smell of the room was horrible, probably due to the mildew from the broken air conditioning unit. Half of the lights in the room didnt work, and i discovered it was because half of the outlets in the room didnt work. Including where the hair dryer was mounted. Ended up leaving a day early so i could actually shower and sleep before leaving. When I informed them of these many major issues no refunds or compensation were offered.

It’s a shame that you pay 59.00 any other time and then charge 169.00 for car show weekend. Door was busted and need to update the shower and commode.

The room didn't smell smoky even though there was a mix of smoking and non-smoking rooms. It was extremely humid; the floor was damp underfoot and the door kept sticking because it was so swollen with humidity. The mini-fridge had no freezer. This was a stay of convenience during a long trip, and it was fine for that purpose.
TV stayed on the whole time... would not turn off. Bugs all over the floor and it smelled terrible. I had to re-set my room key 3 times and the room service ladies had terrible attitudes and were very scary looking.
Entering our room, the wall switch did not operate any light. None of the three lamps nor the clock that were plugged into the wall at the head of the bed would work. Luckily there were lights on the opposite wall and in the bathroom that worked. The man at the desk said all of the electrical in the room was on one circuit breaker, so that if any of the lights worked, it would not have been a tripped breaker. He gave me a couple of light bulbs to try replacing the ones in the lamps. The new bulbs did not work.
We managed with the lights that did operate. That being said the bed was comfortable, the A/C worked very well and the room was clean.
Good for da money & da hoes. & da food & da bed & it’s all good here

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
The first floor rooms are nicely renovated. Vinyl floor instead or carpet was a plus. However, the first room they gave us had a very leaky bathtub faucet. The gave us a different room without problem. Biggest complaint is about linens. The sheets were older and clean, but had some obvious stains and even a cigarette burn. Also, even though they sleep 4 people to a room, we were only given 2 bath towels. When we asked for additional, the man literally laughed at me and refused to give us more. It was a big issue considering we booked 3 rooms and only had 6 towels between us.
Place is dated and looks as though they are doing the least amount possible to keep up on it
Stayed with friend but we both agreed we would never stay there with our wives and small children
We were in town for a music festival, booked a room through the site a month or so back, but when we arrived to check in were turned away. The motel worker informed me that Expedia had overbooked and there were no vacancies. We were forced to drive 2+ hours home that evening.
No cups in room, ice bucket full of dirt, stained, dingy towels, doors don’t open without slamming you full body into the door, noisy plastic covered mattress.
