Dirty

I was afraid to touch anything the room didn't feel clean. The window shade was falling off the rail. Check-in person didn't have a clue what he was doing.

It was exactly what I needed- easy and affordable. Some reviewers complained about the loud AC, but it wasn't any louder than any other motel AC, and in fact I found it to be a nice white noise. And it worked great which is the important thing. The room was perfectly clean and the lady at the desk was really nice. It was quiet and felt safe. Like I said it was exactly what I needed and I will definitely book again if I need a place to stop for the night in that area.
