Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The area is horrible, the rooms smell like humidity, my wife has asthma and we had to leave without having used the rooms, after that the owner does not answer the phone to Expedia because he does not want to return the money, we are not picky, we did not expect a luxury hotel, we just wanted to sleep, my wife and I are riders, we have stayed anywhere except where there is humidity for a medical issue and it is not fair what these people do as if it were a poison, the environment in the parking lot was dangerous!

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I stayed here overnight for an early morning flight. I would have been better off driving through the night or sleeping in my vehicle. The room door was hard to lock (had to lift it to insert deadbolt). It's noisy, the AC was noisy, the outside is falling apart, the bed is harder than a rock, and it overall is not a pleasant stay for a single woman. I did not feel safe. I will not every stay again. Not worth the $80 I paid.

Basic, Clean, low cost, but unfortunate knocker

We have stayed at the Cozy Rest Motel before so knew it was basic lodging. This is fine with us as it is clean and previously felt safe. Unfortunately this trip we were woken to loud banging on our door around midnight. Quite a startling experience. Fortunately, another individual promptly approached the “confused” door banger and escorted them away. Would prefer if doors had a secondary lock as this would have made this situation less concerning.
