Worst motel stay.

The sheets are old. The towels were stained. I do thank the receptionist for preparing coffee early as requested. I think it's overpriced. It says breakfast is included but they only have limited fruits, pastries and coffee.

Great if you like bedbugs

When we arrived, the property is definitely less than stellar. However, the staff was very friendly so we gave it a try. That evening, I felt a bug on my neck and inspected it to be a bedbug. I pulled the sheets back and found two more dead bugs we exited immediately. No compensation or apologies offered by the staff.

Blew my expectations right out of the water! In spite of the reviews, I was expecting, based on the outside appearance and location, something cut-rate and riddled with stains, bugs and noisy guests. To my surprise, everything was spotless! A level of clean expected from a property at 4 or 5 times the price was present at Traveler's Choice. While dated, the room was precisely as pictured and described. No stains anywhere, on anything. No signs of insects at all. Easy, friendly and knowledgeable check-in, room to park the obnoxiously long rig I was pulling, ample linens, very quiet, super hot water in the shower and comfortable enough beds made for a great start the next morning.

The advertisement is very deceitful. There were no bars nearby. And the cats were everywhere. Looks like a family own business and they lived there. I didn’t even stay at the hotel because I was scared.

After checking the room to much sure thing was tidy, we later learned that the room was seriously unclean and not safe to stay in. It was blood on the sheets and bed, and trash under the mattress. I was completely unsatisfied with my room.

Quick stop

We often stay here on our way elsewhere. The hotel staff is very friendly and accommodating. It is not new or fancy but it feels safe and the price is fair.
