Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room appeared clean at first glance, but there was hair left in the tub, drain, on the towel, in the bed, and in the sheets. The floors felt damp. There was a sign saying a dehumidifier was in the room and we would be charged $300 of it was missing upon checkout, but our room did not have one. The AC unit would not work properly. I kept trying to lower the temperature and raise the fan speed but the buttons didn’t work more than half the time and the ac would just change back to the previous setting on its own. The was also a weird whiteish stain/spot on the sheets of one of the beds. I’m sure it’s a generally nice place, but it wasn’t a good experience for us. My truck was also hit in the middle of the night while parked in front of the front office, but their cameras were pointed at the ground and I was told there was no footage available.

Mary

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The overall experience was less than desirable. Over powering smell of Clorox when we opened our room door that we felt nauseous. Furniture looked like it came from the trash pile, mold around the ceiling light fixture, hair in the bath tub and hair on the fresh towels. Disgusting! The pet area probably wasn’t mowed in at least 3 months, infestation of mosaics is a health hazard for Lyme disease, the container for the pet feces was packed full and also bags lying on the ground, another health issue for humans and pets. Asked for a refund to move to a different motel for the rest of our stay and was denied by the maintenance man who was all up in my business and never introduced himself to me which was very unprofessional and disrespectful. The manager told other guests from a different room they could sit and smoke in front of our motel room door. Who does this? I am sure there are code violation at that motel.
