The rooms are old, mine had mouse droppings in the towels and carpet and dead bugs everywhere. The sheets were stained and had holes and the bed was sagging. Road noises all night. Next time I would rather sleep in my car.

Absolutely unacceptable. We actually left. Could not even imagine sleeping there. It was filthy. THERE WAS BLOOD DROP STAINS ON THE CHAIR, the door didn’t close fully to the outdoors, peeling wallpaper, toilet and shower looked terrible. The deck leading to the office was rotted. We tripped going up the broken stairs. It’s completely unsafe. It was appalling and not suitable for anyone to sleep there. I’m shocked they are still in business. We were told there was no refund after we checked in so we lost $78 but there was no way I was staying there.

Review

Checking was at 2pm but I arrived at 12 noon hoping to check in a little early from the airport and an overnight flight but no one was in the office and it was locked. There were no other cars either. I knocked but no answer. I came back at 205 pm but the office was still locked and no answer. I waited in my car and returned in 15 minutes. The door was open and I was able to check in. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable and no bedbugs. The air conditioning was effective. Everything worked and there was a refrigerator. I was there two nights and received room service. The door was not very secure. There was a dead bolt but you could see light between the door and the door frame. The plumbing all drained but every so often there was a sound of flushing and a smell of sewage. The structure is in need of repair.

The reviews before I came here freaked me out a little… but it was in our price range so we took the chance anyways. The rooms definitely looked older and could definitely use some work. I always make sure to check for bed bugs and our room did not have them thankfully. The beds were pretty comfy and the shower in the bathroom had a very good water pressure to it. Everything was pretty quiet. You couldn’t hear others in their room or outside of their room. I know it’s not the hotels fault, but those spotted lanternflies were everywhere so that kind of freaked us out a little bit. We would come again if we knew we would have the same room.

The price was great, however it definitely needs to be cleaned and updated. It was probably one of the dirtiest places I ever stayed in. The mattresses show evidence of a past infestation of bed bugs. Their were a lot of dead insects in the room. The staff was super nice, just not sure why they r not cleaning these rooms.

Run down but the sheets are clean...

Motel is very run down and in need of repairs. Peeling, sagging wallpaper, furniture held together with duct tape, Chipped and dripping tub and sink, holes in the curtains, and inadequate locks. No Wi-Fi unless you left your door open! the sheets and towels were clean which made it all bearable. It was the least expensive motel I could find in the area.
