Bedding was definitely stained, not clean! No coffee in the room, none available in the lobby. Even the cheapest hotels at least have coffee. It was bad enough having flooring in the room with something stuck to it, damaged bathroom door, dirty bedding... and then no coffee. It WAS a place to lay your head down cheap, but you definitely got what you paid for!

You get what you pay for. It was cheap, and the sheets and towels appeared to havr been washed, but had stains. The kind of thing a normal hotel would never use again. There was a huge hole in thr bathroom door with sprinters, so we couldn't fully close it or it wouldn't open again without putting our weight into it. Staff knocked on our door at 9, rven thiugh check out is 11. Tou rwally feel the discount.

Don’t recommend this place

Filthy motel, nothing like in the photos. Outdated, mold in the bathroom; tub, shower curtain. Room smells cigarette as well as the entire hallway. I would not stay here again or recommend to anyone, especially if you’re a solo traveler, don’t do it!

Did not appreciate the services at all, not friendly and why didn’t my key card work at 3-4 am a couple times, when I needed to get back in to sleep. And I guess the TVs all didn’t work for some reason.
