10/10 would not recommend

They do not an elevator which is very inconvenient for someone who has arthritis their knees. We checked in Friday afterwards and goldfish crackers stayed on the stairs from the time we checked in until Sunday when we checked out. The room took all day to get cold and felt like a sauna, which was very unpleasant. There was hair in shower. The mini fridge sat on the floor on the side of the bed. There were no chairs to sit in. The only lights that worked were by the side of the bed and it was like having a flashlight in your face. The room definitely did not look anything like the pictures. The wash cloths were dingy as well.

The lady that checked us in was very kind and switched us to a room on ground floor. Room initially smelled bad. Was given a bottle of sour apple scented spray to use. Didn't cover smell very well so we used our own cologne to help. One of the things we asked for when we made reservations was a swimming pool. Wasn't told that pool was closed. But seeing the pool after check in was obvious that it was not usable. We've stayed at this motel before and was very satisfied with accommodations. But motel has changed hands since our last stay, and I would not recommend staying unless major changes are made. Such as cleaning, repair to walls and bed linen changed rooms and hallways need to smell clean. If pool is out of order, please say so before check in.

Filthy!!! Top sheet had fresh stains… gross! Messy paint job left toilet looking like poop smears. Saw two mice run by… zipped everything up and left. Stopped by front desk and told the desk clerk that I expected a refund as I could not sleep there. I needed the sleep and ended up caught in a bad storm stuck in my car the rest of the night. Anything was better than this motel six in South McAllister!!!!!

My reservation was supposed to have a microwave and mini fridge in the room. The first room I was put in had a mini fridge but was very dirty and dusty and HOT. I went to front desk and was moved to another room. That room didn't have a mini fridge or a microwave. The front desk lady had me move the mini fridge from my old room to my new room on my own. Later on there was an extremely friendly front desk lady who had a microwave brought to my room upon request. At least I didn't have to carry that!
