Hotel or horrors
This hotel was disgusting. Walked into the lobby to it seems like a sketchy deal going on. Gave $40 cash for the key to get into a room. Did not even need the key to get into the room because the door just pushed open and wouldn’t stay shut. They were bodily hairs in the toilet and on the toilet, the shower has soap, scum, and black grunge, there was the word die etched in on the door cigarette burns on the bedding and floor, food and drippings from old food in the refrigerator spiderwebs everywhere. And snoot loonies on the wall not to mention the grim that was smeared on the ceiling. Going to fight for my money back on this.. we walked out and stayed else where.

Terrible stay
I will never stay at the budget inn ever again. The manager had a nasty attitude, he didn't inform me that I needed to pay 50 cents for ice, and either him or the person staying next to me kept banging on the wall very loud. There was some type of grease on the head board and the TV would automatically turn off every hour. So annoying and I will never stay here again.

The state of the place is in accordance with then name. Yes it is cheaper than others in the area but you truly get what you pay for if less. They had only a thin blanket and a basic box spring mattress. They did provide me an extra blanket upon requesting. I’d say spring the little extra to stay at the Best Western across the road.

My overall stay was satisfactory. I didn't understand ehy there was an automatic timer set on the TV. You'd be watching and it would advise you, you have xx amount of seconds before the TV would shutdown. That was annoying, especially if you weren't familiar with the channels and had to access the guide and scroll through to find your channel. When you're over 60, yhe up and down was not in your exercise program.

My stay was horrible. Worst than the last 3 pr 4 times i was there. This is definitely the last. When i arrivee they wanted me to pay, but inalready paid through a third party, so as usual they had an attitude about that. They rather me pay $120-$160 versus the $96 through expedia. So he left and went to go get the lady, she tried to have me pay a $20 cash deposit. I declined because thats not a thing. Now you want me to pay extra money because i didnt pay you, i went through the third party website. So she tried to make a big deal about other crap and ignored and she gave me my key as she should have. I went to my room and they put me right in between some prositutes and pimp and drug addicts. They were so loud. I couldnt sleep. So i asked if i can be moved. The guy said no he'll talk to them. Then a hour later i had to go back and complain again. He gets an attitude with me when you should have just moved me in the first place. I was so annoyed. Never again. I rather spend more money then to go to this cheap, roach infested motel. Like bye. Never again.

I left out a little late today. The guy from the office came by and left the door to the room i was in wide open. Then he came back and started playing with the door knob. Then he came and tried to rush me out the room for the towels. It was so much hostility towards me and this is everytime i come here. Last time i was here was about a month ago. This dude is always weird towards me and its ridiculous. Im only here because this place is less inexpensive on this site versus in person where i was being charged $140-$160 for the same room. I just fiund out there is a microwave for the motel. I didnt even know. I stayed here about 4-5 times already. Thats should have been something that was brought up, but he's too busy being rude. Not to mention the contant banging on the walls and ceilings early in the morning and as im trying to sleep. Constantly walking back and fourth stomping.

The staff is real rude and weird towards me every time I come here. They always give me a room right next to the office or above and then their super loud. Especially when im next to them. If I'm in the shower, then theyre banging on the walls. At 11am, im getting real to depart for check out and they come into my room 11am on the dot. They're not supposed to walk in my room. Its weird and aggravating. I told them today while departing that I don't want to ve placed near them if i check in here again and the lady at the front desk, not the guy this time, just waved me off. So rude. They also were upset that I paid online instead of paying $160 in person. I paid the $95 instead before coming to check in.

The owner of the property charges people a $20 cash deposit for the room card, THEN on the day of checkout, he knocks on the door and asked for the room key and I realized that several times of staying here, the owner did not return my $20 cash deposit for the room card. I realized that when I was checking out and he did it again, I told him I will turn the key in at the desk and threaten to contact the BBB, Consumer Affairs and anyone else I can think of because what he is doing is WRONG. I busted him, and his wife gave me back my $20 at the window. So Mad about that, since he does it to everyone, that is a lot of added up money he is collecting under the table.

This was a horrible experience. I would normally not pick this motel but everything was taken because of gay pride weekend i assume because thats the event going on locally. It was a really hot day so obviously we want turn on ac. It doesnt work because there was no button to push it on. So we complained they were going to come take a look at it but they took so long that we ended up leaving because we couldnt take it. And came back at night when it was cooler and we could tolerate being in there. Well the next morning when it was time to h

Great for a pit stop
We were there to go to the beach. The room was large which I liked. Even though the a/c unit looked like it wasn’t going to work it did the job but was pretty loud and tough to sleep with it on. The shower had great water pressure. It’s an older property, but the owners seem to keep it clean. They are very friendly and would probably make a pit stop here for an overnight again.
