The staff was very kind and did everything I asked. They didn't speak much English, but I have no complaints about the staff. The motel itself was the most run down, dirty motel I think I've ever stayed at. I changed rooms 3 times! There was NO microwave or Fridge in 2 of the 3 rooms. The 'smoking' room did have the fridge and microwave, but the stinch was so bad, it made me nauseous. Smoke detector was hanging from a wire with a baggie around it that was yellowed with smoke stains. 2nd room the TV didn't work, the 3rd room - I gave up and stayed my one night, but I didn't get to soak in a hot tub, there! No amenities, not even an ice bucket!
It was difficult to park safely upon arrival. Many people meeting by cars after 10pm. We were told we had to add a $50 cash deposit upon arrival. The receipt we received for prepayment was 30% lower than what we paid. The room was vaguely clean until you reached the bathroom. I’ll save you the details. It is certainly a NOPE in the future

The room was clean the shower wall needs repair and the door latch sticks and doesn't come out until you move the handle multiple times before the door locks and last the switch for the lights by the beds does not turn the light on until multiple pushes to the switch.Otherthan those three things which were not a inconvenience the room was a good value for the rate. Thank you
I wanted a non smoking room, though ghey wanted a cash deposit.
The room i got was a smoking room becasue i did not have cash. There were burn marks on the bed spread and on the toilet seat. Towel mat had diety foot prints on it. Shower towels were old and thin. My door had a 1/2 inch gap that let the cold air in.
Place was not clean at all, there was not enough towels for us, comode leaked at the bottom and went all over the floor, i don't recommend this place to stay.
I think the manager of this property wrote down everything most customers would want and eliminated them. No coffee in the room or office and no micro to heat your own,. Internet that gets very few connections, No table in the room for the chair to put a laptop on, not even 1 plastic or other container to use for water to take medication with. They tried to blame the internet problem on my computer but I was on a 14 day road trip and had no problem anywhere else. The surrounding area was what I would call shady. I was very concerned about the safety of my car. I will say that the parking lot was very well lit and nothing happened.
The location is awful and doesn’t feel safe at all, there were junkies everywhere. Two nights in a row we heard gunshots outside. We found out from locals that the area is known as “The war zone”
The room was old and dirty. There was a soap painted over in the bathroom and no bulbs in two of the three lamps. The only reason we didn’t leave was because of being an event weekend and high prices elsewhere.
The manamger had to bring me a microwave, had to fix tv. There was no phone. Washer and drtyer and Ice machine were broke. Left a day earlyand the neighborhood didnt make me feel safe, homless and people are drugs,all over and sleeping on streets ,not what I was expecting. And only1 person spoke English. Never again ,Dont waste your money.
