The property was extremely basic as suited the price. The check in was the easiest ever without a lot of paperwork or hassle. The room was very simply furnished. It was not the kind of place you would want to hang out for a while. There were several restaurants within a few minutes drive, but none within a reasonable walk. The people we met were pleasant, but the town seems quite mediocre.

Good place to rest up

Good clean room, quiet area, responsive management nothing to complain about. Our south facing room had a nice view of the nearby mountains, ended up staying a second night to avoid a high wind situation around Las Vegas

Tear the Place Down

This motel should be torn down and replaced. It has not been maintained. It wouldn't pass a safety inspection by the State. The floor is weak and flimsy, hot water doesn't work, bed is terrible, spider webs in the window, refrigerator didn't work and much more.

My room had lukewarm trickling water. The sink was clogged. They claimed to provide Wi-Fi, but it did not cover my room. I told the person that seemed to be running the place, but he completed dismissed me in a contemptuously rude manner even though I had walked around the area by my room and it did reach about one room over in either direction. The blanket on the bed was very flimsy and there was no extra blanket in the room. There was no front desk attendant available about a third of the time during the day. When he was there, he seemed disgusted to be bothered. I received no bill and when I checked my credit card, I was charged an extra $30 dollars for no apparent reason. This is absolutely the worst motel I have ever stayed at in my life and I have stayed in some real dumps.
