Didn’t see any staff on premise. Had to call a number for someone to drive over to check me in. First key wouldn’t get me into room. Had to call and wait to be given queen, smoking room vs king, non-smoking room booked. Room in rough condition. Didn’t expect much but experience was poor.

Well there were a lot of issues with this place. First of all, we got a dirty room...literally fake eyelashes on the dirty sink that wouldn't drain. We stayed here over a year ago and it was not like this. The tub is cracked and leaking, both doors (front and bathroom) need to be replaced, and there were roaches. I could literally see sunlight through the bottom of the front door. The back of the bathroom door had been chewed up, literally. Room 136 was just bad...and to make it worse the guy supposedly checked it to make sure it was ready before he assigned me the room. Oh and for fun, no TP and what seemed to be dirty towels. Thank God I brought a roll from home.

This place was nothing like pictured! Was never able to enter lobby so service was at a window. Checked in that Sunday 17th room 141 was absolutely terrible!! Smelled horrible! I did a little cleaning to let it air out. I left and came back that night around 9 smell wasn’t so strong, open refrigerator dead roach, open microwave rusted with dead roach, roach on the wall. Monday 18th woke up with headache and coughing went to shower and I noticed the bathroom ceiling had mold! I request a different room that even after work and was asked to come back that night at 11. I wasn’t hanging out too that time which left me paying for another room!! Tuesday evening 8/19 they gave me another room so I went to get my things from 141 and roaches were in the sink. The other room 104 smelled alil better but I still had a dry cough from the first room and was hesitant about staying and it getting worse. I paid for Sunday through Saturday checkout and only stayed Sunday night! It wasn’t worth my life! I chose the place for sentimental reasons of 2021, but never again! The hotel has some major health violations among others! I won’t recommend to anyone even if you don’t care about the condition at this hotel.

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY TO ANYONE ! From check in - lobby stays locked, must call a number at a window. TV didn’t work, I had to walk the property to find help ( no phone in the room) No bath towels… was not going hunting late at night to find someone. Air conditioner ran all night, noisy & auto didn’t work

Wow - where to start?!!! We arrived at 9:00p.m. The motel lobby was locked. They checked us in through a hole in one of the lobby door!! The chain lock on our room door was busted off (as well as half of the door trim) We found hairs on the pillows and bed sheets! Wet liquid on the nightstand and lots of food crumbs on the floor. Not even a bar of hand soap in the bathroom. When we checked out, in the morning we were not allowed into the building. No one told us how to check out so we deposited our room key, through the hole in the door. There was not even a cup of coffee available - not even in our room and no breakfast!!!!! We just needed a bed for a few hours of sleep as we traveled and we are pretty easy going, but this place was a shock!! Their write up on their website is mostly NOT TRUE.
