Great price.

The person who checked me in was really nice, it was close to everything, but the room and the bed were awful! The room smelled really bad, the bed was so hard it wasn’t even funny and the condensation was out of control, it was a decent property maybe I just got a bad room? I will stay again when I’m bad in Monroe.
The condensation on the windows, it was very mucky to sleep in everything was damp, when I woke up.

Palou was very nice and helpful. He helped to get us a bottom floor room for my 500+ pound friend, who would of had a hard time making it to the 2nd floor. He also made sure our front window got fixed so we could sleep in comfort, knowing no one could get into our room from the street.

Bedding had something on it, wall had spots that had been painted different colors, holes patched in doors with out being fixed, the floor was gross feeling i wouldnt walk bare foot on it bathtub was peeling. Pulled in and trash bags were just sitting outside in parking spots. Very out dated and very musty smelling was hoping it had gotten better from last time. Will be spending a lil more money and going somewhere else next time.

The bad. The room’s carpet was filthy, didn’t walk around with bare feet. Breakfast was marginal, nothing hot except instant oatmeal. The good we saved $300. Was it worth it? Not really.

The outside is full of trash, garbage cans overflowing. The rooms are well worn, but I was pleased that the room looked clean. I bring my own bedding and pillow, I refuse to sleep on any motel sheets. I asked the staff not to clean my room, I don't want my bedding moved around. Overall its a place to sleep, and defiantly nothing fancy.

This is an older building on a busy road with a train that goes by every six hours or so day and night. That said, they were pet-friendly, the beds were comfortable and best water pressure I have ever had at any hotel. As long as you know its right on the highway, there are trains and kind of a beat up building - it was cean and safe enough. We stayed five nights during a two-week trip to the Pacific NW with our two dogs, both Setters.
