On arrival I was told there was no more rooms, and was told to go to a different building with only smoking rooms available. The area was very sketchy with people standing around drinking/drugging and smoking outside and inside the building

i tried to rent a motel room in Fife Washington from Florida for my brother. The Proprietor said he could not take payment over the phone. He said I had to book online. He was not specific as to which service. I booked with expedia. Still tthe proprietor would not rent the room without the card being present to charge even after I filed the card with expedia. At first he said that he did not have anything from expedia. Then he said he had the reservation but needed the card. He left the premises in his car without renting the room to my brother.

Not recommend

Hands down the grossest hotel I have ever stayed in my life. Host was very nice and helpful. However, the room smelled like they just sprayed a ton of glade all over. It had a dirty hand print on the door, holes in the walls and door. The office chairs look like they came from a dumpster, full of dirt and something I would not sit in. There we light bulbs missing and some didn’t even work. And the smell was so bad in the room, it was almost unbearable. The shower had zero water pressure and almost didn’t even work. It was just a lite waterfall of water that came out. There we stains and rips on the bed sheets and there were a ton of buttons missing from the phone in the room. So, overall I would not ever stay there again or recommend anyone to for the sake of hygiene, cleanliness and the smell.
