Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
first thing was to pay a 30 dollar deposit during check in. while the persons pre teen daughter checked us in you can see the cover up paint since it did not match, walls, ceiling. had carpet baseboards that was peeling from the wall, sheets, blankets had very noticeable stains. the indoor pool was not cleaned, can see the dirt on the bottom of the pool. trash on the grounds, the ash trays where full of trash and not been cleaned, same stuff in there and then some during the stay. came outside for a smoke and a tow truck and cops where in the parking lot. i mean yea for a place that cheap i would hope for slightly better. the TV would cut off every so often and when watching a show on the tv it would be in spanish and no way to change it. breakfast was ok, the basic usual. for a place like that, it should be like 40$ a night instead of the $70+ they ask for

We stayed here in '19 & '20 on our return from a Wyoming hunt. It was a nice, clean & safe motel. So we decided to stop again this year. Things changed. First, tub leaked with a 3' X 3' rug area socked outside bathroom Second, homeless person was camped at the entrance when we left at 5:30 am Third, general cleanliness of room & bedding was very worn With general condition of motel we passed on breakfast

After we checked it we went to the room to check it out. It was very dirty with mold on th ac unit , stains on the sheets , and 2 little beds with 3 dirty pillows. Since there was going to be 4 of us we just decided to go find something more appropriate. We should have told the desk we were leaving but we were tired and just wanted a decent place to stay

Run as far away from this place as possible! Absolutely the most disgusting hotel ive ever seen. Pet hair on the bedding, giant mold spot on the wall by ac that was broken, and taped together. Huge water stain by the ac disgusting brown "stuff" smashed in the carpet. Sink was non functional but had a steady trickle you couldnt shut off. Honestly so much more. The best thing would be to burn this place to the ground and start over the owners should be ashamed of the level of disrepair, mold, stains, and horrible uncleanliness. House keeping also removed my phone charger from the room and i now have to buy another. I would not stay here again if they payed me 10x the amount they charge.

Really bad.

Super gross. Linens/towels pretty much all stained. Broken down structures. The first room they put us in AC was broken. Bad smell. Messy hallway. The actual housekeeper did a good job given the terrible situation they're working in.
