This place was full of bugs. Roaches, spiders, and moths were all in the room. Even for a cheap motel, this was unacceptable. Would not return.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The outside of the motel was in good condition. My room was not in good condition. Everything that was metal was rusty. Window sills were dirty. The kitchenet was so-so. but felt unclean. Bed was comfortable. Tv had streaming channels only, but was okay. The cleaning lady and her husband lived in the next room. They both smoked. Each morning about 6:30am you could hear them outside coughing and hacking Good hot water. I didn't use the pool.
