Hotel or Halfway House

Place was disgusting. It’s not in a good area and there were crackheads that were being loud in surrounding rooms. The door looked like it had been kicked in several times. There were crumbs and other things on the floor and we were concerned for our safety. We left immediately and so I will be requesting a refund. There was a smell of crack and marijuana. avoid!!!!!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Disappointed, definitely not a suite I expected.

The floor of the room was filthy. The tub rusty and in poor condition. The hot water at the tub runs continuously. The pool is broken and the deck around the pool and stairs to the second floor filthy. The furniture in the room wobbly. The Refrigerator, microwave and TV were good. Bed ok, too soft for my taste but ok.

The property is old. So there are some things that may not be up to the standard of some people. With that being said for it being an older property the place is clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff is great. Great place for an affordable room.

The motel seems to be improving; considering previous reviews. Our room was clean and appeared to be freshly painted, with a tidy bathroom and fresh towels. The in-room kitchen had a good selection of appliances and utensils, though we only used the fridge. However, we found dead bugs in the tub and shower window on our second night, which was unpleasant. Noise from a loud argument in the neighboring room made it hard to sleep. On a positive note, members of staff were polite and courteous during our stay. Overall, a mixed experience with some positive aspects but room for improvement.
