Never again will I stay there?

It was the worst place I’ve ever stayed in the shower faucets were rusty and when I ran the water it smelt like rust. I thought it’s no way I’m taking a shower and I did not and the shower doors were really scummy, but it smelt clean the bed had clean sheets on was not bad at all. Microwave was dirty. I had to clean that out before I used it.

Horrible, Stay Away!

Horrible. Really old Desk clerk/owner? seemed to not understand english and old system so slow to check in. Was writing down all numbers from credit card on paper. Told him to scribble out when done. Booked 2 beds. Room had one. Move to only room left with 2, which was pretty much a storage room, new boxed headboards propped up against window, and missing one in our room. other headboard had big stain on it, looked like blood. No nightstand, water smelled like sulfur, stand holding tv warped and tv didn't seem to work. shower curtain gross and some stains in bathtub/toilet. no closet and overall just dirty.

Last place to choose to stay

this property is probably 50+ years old and has never been updated. Bathrooms are terrible. Rusted shower doors that don't work. Dirty toilet bowls that have permanent stains in the bowl. Water out of the faucets smells heavily of iron. Walls in the room are dirty. You can see light under the door. The dead bolt in the door lock did not work.

Ok for overnight

If there are other choices for a bit more money, I'd skip this place and go there! The bed was comfortable sheets were clean but the room itself needs a thorough deep clean.

I survived

Functional but grim. Sink was dirty. Mirror had smudges. A/c heat was too loud so I turned it off (fortunately wasn’t a chilly night). Bed and sheets ok. Nowadays my expectations are low. No smells thank goodness. No curtain on window, Venetian blinds only so lights from outside bled through. I survived.

My room had a centipede that I saw and killed, but there may have been more. Killed some spiders in the tub before taking a shower. Last 2 days there got bug bites which I don’t know from what. Was able to get new towels from staff when I asked.

Needs an update, several electrical outlets did not work, tv remote didn’t work, no blow dryer, paint stains on the bathroom floor. We were an hour early and they charged $10 to get the room then. It is for sale , hopefully they can sell to someone who will update , it is a nice area for a motel.
