Disgusting properly and disgusting staff. I have never had a problem like this before even with lower budget rooms. Also a dangerous location. I was yelled at and called names by staff after trying to get my issue resolved. Orbitz also did nothing to help me get my funds back after they said I could check out early and get a refund on the day I left.

I needed a place for my dog and I to stay for the night while I looked at rental homes. I should’ve known a motel for less than $50 would have very limited amenities but there wasn’t even a mini fridge, microwave or coffee maker in the room. The bathroom had literally one towel and was the size for maybe a child to use and not an adult. The motel stated being pet friendly but there was no area for me to safely walk my service dog or have her use the bathroom. I had to google dog parks and those were a pain to navigate to. Staff were very friendly which was a positive. Wi-Fi was slow but I was able to manage. There were bugs in the room I had to kill but no bugs in the bed. Overall it was an okay bed to stay in for the night as a (super) last minute option, I felt safe enough, (I carry my own weapons and my dog is trained to protect) but others may not feel so comfortable staying here. Bring your own cooler if you plan to have any meals at this place. (Might want to bring your own towels too)

Stay away from here

The area is full of homeless and drug addicts. Outside all day and the rooms are degusting and unclean. This was a last minute due to sold out hotels. Would rather sleep in the car over this place. The price was high for what you get.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was rude, the whole building was filthy full of roaches, noisy, thrashing outside the rooms, and people hanging out partying and smoking. The assigned room linen was dingy, ripped, and stained, the toilet was clogged, the pillows did not have pillowcases, and only one towel per room. When I informed the staff of the toilet issue, she brought a person/ tenant who was hanging out smoking and drinking to look into the issue. This was a terrible horrifying experience, I would never book at this location. Hotels.com should not even have this location on their website. All sorts of people hanging outside their rooms drinking and smoking drugs is not a pretty, safe view.

I show up around 2 pm and I ask for the room and to my surprise they wanted me to pay another extra amount to let me in 1 hr before 3 pm. On top of the rate. The place was poorly in everyway. Seems nothing like the pictures it was like an abandoned building. Since I was denied the room I request to cancel because my reservation because I was not going to wait in such unsafe location and for that I was ripped off with cancelation fee. Terrible place.

My boyfriend and I ended up only being in the room for an hour as our plans changed and not only were they unwilling to give us a refund, the room itself was disgusting. I wish I took pictures but the floor had dirty spots all over, the floor was sticky, the corner seat was dirty and my boyfriend went into the bathroom and said behind the toilet looked untouched.
