Terrible smell in room. Bathroom was not cleaned thoroughly. No screens in windows. Dumpy hotel. Cheap shouldn’t mean a dump.

Well all I can say is I slept good the beds were good for the right firmness. But expect to hear every footstep including yours if you’re not a smooth criminal. Main hallway is Smokey and dark but hey if you love smoking and doing a needle or two it’s an excellent spot to stay. I try to not be negative but there’s a benefit for everyone for this Motel. For the price you can’t beat that.

Clean and comfortable guestroom; clean and very comfortable bed; friendly and efficient customer service. Facility could use a little maintenance work, but it's not bad. No frills. Adding donuts or danish -- and either peanut butter, or a second flavor of jam, or both -- to the continental breakfast would be easy and would be appreciated. Good value if you can live without frills for a night.

WARNING!!!!

Worst Motel Experience Ever – Avoid at All Costs! If I could give zero stars, I would. This place is a complete disaster from top to bottom. The manager was shockingly rude, dismissive, condescending, and completely uninterested in addressing any of the concerns we raised. It felt like we were bothering him by simply existing. But the most disturbing part? There was an unmarked door leading directly into our room from somewhere. No bolt, no deadlock, nothing to secure it from our side. We asked about it, and the manager waved it off like it was normal. Sorry, but an unsecured random door in a motel room is a huge red flag for safety. We asked for a refund immediately due to our concerns and were told that wouldn’t happen and that WE were being rude. Trust me: pay the extra money and go somewhere else. This place should be shut down.

A basic overnight stay.

Nice place when you don't want to spend a lot of money. Good for a single individual or a couple. If you don't want extras, this is the place to go.
