I check in. The staff lady says give me 60.00 cash deposit-you get it back when u check out. Then she said "by the way the police r on there way kicking out a person". 3 hours later the police show back up pounding on doors looking for a guy that had a plastic bag over his head. Then at 7am i open my door and towels, mops all over the hallway. It smelt gross! I did get my 60 bucks back but this place horrible and not safe!!!

Upon checking in was told i needed to provide $60 cash security deposit, surprise! Luckily I had cash on me. In room there was a shelf sitting on top a cabinet that was obviously ripped from the wall above the sink. Water damage to the wall near the tub and paint drops on floor and tub. Tub surround had many gaps and broken selant. Tub faucet dripped constantly but didn't disturb my sleep. Went to take a shower in the morning but was unable to as the shower head was nearly completely clogged, only a dribble of water came out. All the front desk said was sorry about that. Figured a discount or refund would be in oreder but no.

Motel charged $60 for potential damage at check in. It had to be cash. No credit card was acceptable. The heat did not work. The door handle at the entrance door didn’t work correctly. There was a hole in a wall. All problems were reported to the office manager. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Shower head was clogged.

Paint peeling off in the bathtub, baseboards coming off the wall. Hallway carpets smell and all stained. Bugs in the light covers. Toilet needed to be plunged after each use, good thing one was left. Was not informed about the $60 cash deposit.
