Don’t reserve!! I took some photos.

it was closed, « temporarily ». i asked Hotels.com to return my $178.82, which they agreed to do, after confirming that the place was closed. I am not blaming Hotels.com-they obviously didn’t know. i saw online that they are still « renting » rooms for this weekend at $383. Air conditioner falling out, mats ripped, curtains hanging, closed up.
The photos speak for themselves.
Not a car in sight.  Office said « CLOSED »

Far from fancy, but room rate was fair.

Price/accommodation ratio was fair. All bare essentials provided. Very slight smell of smoking. Though in a parking lot off of the highway, it is a convenient location.
