I made a noise complaint after not being able to sleep for nearly two nights in a row. Said they would call them to tell them to be quiet. I NEVER heard their phone ring. And I could hear EVERYTHING from those next to me. It was NONSTOP loud yelling/laughing day and night. They were OBVIOUSLY smoking marijuana it smelled SO strong in my room. And I have asthma. I told them I wanted a NO SMOKING room at check in due to this. When I went to the desk saying I wanted to leave (over 3 hours after complaining of it all) she said “oh I just called them to ask them to be quiet” As I was walking to the front desk a house keeper walked up there with me and said before I could even say anything “she wants to check out because those people next door and how loud they are” and even said they had been getting constant complaints about them. So why would they room someone next to them?!? They obviously had TONS of other rooms open. I understand I chose a cheaper hotel and I can deal with ALOT but WOW it was so bad. My bathroom toilet leaked allll around the ring anytime I flushed. There was bullet hole in my window/curtains even. I barely got an apology at check out and when I said I wanted to go they wouldn’t stop trying to get me to choose a different room. Absolute WORST stay I have EVER had. And I travel ALOT. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Not bad for a last min find

This was a nice stay. The staff was so friendly. Mrs Kim made sure me and my mama had everything we needed the whole time we was there. Pet friendly so my little man was able to come with me. Room felt a little crowded to me but it was very clean and had microwave and fridge so we were fine.

7pm front desk attendant

The motel was clean, but upon arrival, the attendant at the front desk, after my reservation had been made at 11 am, either couldn't find my reservation or didn't know how to find my reservation. Not only that, because he couldn't find it, called me a liar and also threatened to call the police and have me removed from the premises. I showed him all of my booking information along with my receipts from hotels.com and he still didn't put the information in. I have been booking with hotels.com for a long time and never had this problem. I stayed alone that night and was in bed at 8pm and the front attendant sent someone and woke me up complaining about a noise complaint about a party. It really made my stay very uncomfortable. Not only did they not have my room that i reservated, he charged me 4 more dollars, and retried to recharge my card for the entire room over again. This was not my first time staying there, but probably will consider it lightly before staying there again.

The toilet had been used and not flushed . Not sure if they even cleaned in between guest. The faucet in the shower had tried to be repaired but was not. The cable wires for the tv was run around the room and not hidden just laying around everywhere. The front door had to be slammed to shut and everytime you did made a loud squeaking sound. The chair at the desk was nit safe to sit in . It needs to be thrown away. Over all the entire motel needs updated. .
