Dirty carpets, filthy bathroom floor, grey towels, smelly, horrible mattress and crappy pillows, all for $75 a night. Too bad as it is a great location and a cute retro hotel. It needs to be renovated. Until then they need to give it a really good disinfection.

No ice machine but a full size fridge & a microwave, the bed was firm & comfortable but the pillows were too soft. Due to my handicap they changed my room to a mainfloor room, no stairs & I could park infront of my door! The air conditioner was not adequate for the size of the room. It’s an old motel with a restaurant next to it!

2 stars is accurate.

The staff is friendly, they gave a courtesy wake up reminder call for checking out. The beds were comfy but the pillows were old and no good, the blankets were in bad shape and looked dirty. There was no water pressure in the shower. The carpet looked dirty and stained. Sleeping didn't feel 100% safe and secure. But it was the cheapest hotel in the right location. We survived.
