Rented a room on Expedia. The photos posted of this hotel are very misleading. It looks nothing like the pictures when you pull up to the property. It’s run down. The lawn isn’t very well maintained and there are garbage cans sitting outside of the rooms. Junk sitting out in front of the rooms. I’m assuming people rent rooms that live there. Sitting out on folding chairs smoking. Not inviting at all. Went to the office to tell them we were not going to stay there. Walked in and it’s filthy and smelled of urine. Front desk person told me I had to call Expedia and walked away. It’s cheap yes but does not have a good vibe at all.

Well I guess the sheets and towels were clean. That's about it. The tub was dirty, the drain was clogged with hair, it clearly hadn't been vacuumed, and the room was dusty. The proprietors are putting minimal effort into this motel.

Do not recommend. It seems like the place is trying to update things, but as of now would not recommend. Charged extra for 2 adults, but was not provided extra bath, hand, or wash towels. Tried to get more towels, but no one would answer in the office or by phone. TV was not working. Musty odor to room.

Doing a check in behind bulletproof glass is a bit disconcerting. However, staff were very polite and helpful. Building is dated but very clean.

Just the normal

It’s no 5 star hotel but it is clean it’s been years since I’ve last stayed there it’s been updated since then but over all it was a fast stay just somewhere to rest and shower no breakfast might have to ask for extra towels if your bringing someone with you

The host promptly accommodated our early checkin time. This allowed us to change and get ready for a wedding ceremony at 2pm.

Good location on the southern end of town. Several fast food restaurant within walking distance. Walking distance to GAC if motivated. Property is old and unimproved but maintained minimally. Office is old and unsightly with pet smell. Building is old and also minimally maintaned. Linens are old with small tears but clean and no bedbugs. Wifi was very weak at our room, unuseable most times. 4 nights no housekeeping.
