Shower in room did not work. Water was all over the floor after i had to take a bath. I left within a few hours of checking in. Wasn’t worth staying there. Staff wasn’t at front desk when checking in had to wait a few minutes which is ok but still alittle irritating.

Smelled dirty and moldy

Dirty, smells dirty, I am so glad we had a blanket because we did not lift up the covers, outdated, owners look like they don't put in the effort to make it look nice or even presentable, torn curtains and shower curtain, walls are stained, we got this for family weekend at Texas State, yes it was cheap for this was too much. Definitely will not be staying here ever again and so not recommended.

You can tell they want things to seem or smell clean, however there is an overwhelming smell of bleach the minute you open the door.

Basic no frills motel. Fine if you're staying just for the night. I'd stay somewhere else if you plan on staying multiple nights. Everything in the room is old/out dated. Bed is very hard and hardly any amenities in the room.

Should have been half the price

Renovations are being done, but they have a ways to go before I'd stay here again. The inside of the microwave was rusty and disgusting. The room smelled odd. Painting had been done to cover holes in the walls but didn't match. Ceiling tiles were missing in the hallway. The room was clean, but definitely the bare minimum.
