No microwave, table, chair or light's. One lamp. The room was so unsettling. I declined housekeeping services and was told my son and i had to check out, the best thing that happened there. False advertising because the pictures gotta be from a different hotel. Charging way to much to take a suitcase full of bed bugs and roaches. I will never look this direction again.

Filthy grounds outside. Something that looked like blood stains on the curtains. Baseboards caked with dirt. No dressers or closets. Showed me the smoking room. Only checking for smell. After checking in I noticed all of the flaws. Checked out fifteen minutes later out fifteen minutes late and they charged me for a day. I could go on forever!

Location was good for me. But they let people hang around outside that will not leave you alone. I had to go to another motel at 12 at night because I thought someone was going to rob me. They stand outside your door right by the stairs for hours. U felt very threatened n scared will never stay there again

Disgusting

Non smoking room and cigarette burn on counters and sheets had holes in them and felt like sheets were not clean. Best thing was hot shower. After paying by phone they required a 50 dollar deposit which I never had to do . They should have paid me to stay there oh and don’t let me forget that I could not sleep due to thinking my vehicle was going to get broken into, no parking to accommodate your stay.
