The room was awful. The refrigerator stunk and didn't work and while the staff offered to trade our room it was too late after driving 8 hours from our house we were exhausted. Then because of the rain it started to flood the walkway right in front of our room and when we asked for assistance. They

The room was about a 5/10 for cleanliness. Linens seemed clean, but the floor was awful. Half of the motel is definitely long-term stays for drug users, who are often wandering around the property at all hours. The ice machine was 25 cents and was located in the building of the motel with the long-term renters. The same drug users also occupied the breakfast buffet and made it difficult for other people to get food.

The rooms are clearly in decay, the conditions inside them are honestly at some point nasty. I had to get move from the first assigned room because they were cockroaches in the wall. The floor were sticky, the water faucet was barely working and bad tube was supper nasty.

Wifi didn't work for a day and a half Worst continental breakfast I've ever had, only consisted of waffles, coffee, and two types of cereal. Usually you have fruit options, yogurts, toast etc. Sheets were clean but pillow was stained throughout and there was dirt smudges over the door and walls. The smell outside was horrendous but that may not have been the motels problem directly.
