Room was not very clean. Tons of spackle everywhere. Bed was very old and very creak. Hallways smelled like diapers. Staff was friendly but not there at check in or check out maybe not enough staff. The fan in the bathroom sounded like a roaring jet taking off and gave us a headache.

We had an awful stay at the hotel. The bathroom was dirty, hair in the bathtub. Fridge was smelly. The latch on the door was broken so we couldn’t lock ourselves inside. Would definitely stay away!

Not in a great part town, was concerned about leaving anything in the car. Bare basics here, no hairdryer, tiny sparse towels. Breakfast was the worst I have seen at a hotel buffet ever. Lots of kids running up and down hallways for several hours in the evening.

I would not recommend every staying here

We booked this motel last minute as the reviews I had read weren't terrible and price fit out budget. When we entered building it had strong smell of pot. Our room wasn't dirty and I was ok with bed. The fan in bathroom was very noisy as it came on with light so couldn't turn it off. Our biggest disappointment was we had no hot water in room for entire stay. The receptionist blamed problems on owner as the pool had some water but untreated and breakfast area closed off. The motel had no one on staff to clean rooms as we didn't care as had go to Lobby to get clean towels. I just as well have found campground or slept in car.

I don't have high standards when it comes to hotel rooms, but they failed to meet my low standards on the first room. There was a layer of slime in the bathtub, one of the towels was filthy dirty, the sheets were stained and looked terrible. There was also a lingering scent of stale cigarette smoke in the first room. I have only requested a new room at a motel/hotel once before, and that was at a casino and the room was full of cigarette smoke. Also the area with the stairs had a weird smell to it and had obviously not been vacuumed for weeks, if not months. The one shining star was the staff, who checked the second room and got us into the second room in 5 minutes.
