what stay? The woman refused to give us the code to get into the room; unless I gave her my credit card number. When I reminded her the account was paid in full for our week stay through Expedia and I wasn't giving her my credit card number, she said "Well you aren't staying here and slammed the phone down on my call. When I called Expedia to complain and demand my money back, I got an agent on the line, located in a third world country, who didn't understand idioms and the conversation was a waste of my time; when I asked to be transferred to a agent in the United States - he refused to transfer me; instead he said he would call the motel woman and listen to her side of the story. Well he called the woman, she refused to return my money stating I didn't give 24 hr notice on the cancellation; no mention of her demanding my credit card number and refusing to give the code to enter the room, or that she hung up on me. Being very dissatisfied and quite angry, I asked to speak to his supervisor. I was transferred to another agent in El Salvador! You could hear the kids and chickens in the background, another waste of my time with nothing to show for it. So, the woman operating the Gladstone Motel beat me out of my money and I had to find another place to stay $$$$$. Expedia was no help what so ever.

The staff was nice. They transferred me from one dirty room to another when i called and complained about the first room. These rooms are very outdated and not properly cleaned. This is fine for someone drinking at the bar and needs somewhere to stumble to and sleep it off. If you're stone cold sober I wouldnt recommend. We only stayed 1 of the 3 nights we booked.

Where to begin? I had travelled for over 24 hours and booked online via Expedia. When I arrived I read a sign that said it was contactless and to check in you had to call a number. I did….no answer. Tried again. No answer. Finally, on the third time I was finally given a code to get into my room. The exterior around the motel was beautiful - there were an abundance of flowers and the parking lot had just been replaced. As I had travelled for over 24 hours the first thing I wanted was a shower. For over 15 minutes I tried to get hot water but nothing. Pure cold! When it finally came it was like warm.

Check in was a breeze once I figured out to just call to get my room # and code for the door as there is no front desk. Room was a little dated, but super clean. It was a great budget friendly option as we were just passing through. There was also a really nice diner within walking distance called Dewdrop. It had a great breakfast. Nice and clean too.

The property was easy to find and had excellent parking. It was right down the street from an excellent restaurant, The Dewdrop. The carpet was clean but stained.... the water pressure for the shower was not good... took a while to get hot but once it did, it was good. It was so nice to have a fridge, microwave and coffee pot in the room. For the price, it was ok.
