You get what you pay for. If cheap is what you desire, then yes this will be a good place. Just remember, you get what you paid for. Me personally. I enjoyed the fact I didn't have to drive all over to find my room. Love these type of secured rooms instead of the long walks type, if that makes sense!

This place is absolutely disgusting and my family refused to sleep there! There were cigarette burns on both beds/comforters, cobwebs, blood on blankets, and clearly hadn’t been cleaned in no telling how long! This place would be the spot if you were looking for a place to take a hooker!!

Safety

concerned about safety, the rear motel entrance door,where we parked,was always unlocked. Usually 2-6 guys were hanging out in the rear parking lot. Maybe they were on break? But uncomfortable walking into building.

This is by far the most dirty hotel I have ever seen or been in. Smelled like cigarette smoke. Cigarette burn holes in the blankets. Ice machine was broken. Back door of the hotel did not lock, very sketchy area. Felt unsafe. Felt unclean the entire stay. 0 out of 10, would not recommend.

Easy to access to various restaurants and shops on foot. Hotel room stinks and filthy, so I had to spray two bottles of deodorants. My door lock opens even without a card key, so I had to carry my note book in my sack bag whenever I step out of the room.
