Bedspreads stained. Bathroom floor not clean. No bedside lighting, Had to ask for clean towels, more soap and cups. A friend two doors down found bedbugs in his bed. But it was cheap!

This isn't no fancy vacation stay hotel. But I knew that when I rented it. This town has two hotels and I promise you this is the better choice. I have reviews for both. Don't waste your time, money, or safety to try the other. Hands down all around to the staff here.

We received an email telling us to reach this motel bf reservation day. Several days before, we called 6x, each time a man answered phone just “hello”,& mgr will call you back”. No return call. We arrived at 3pm on day of reserv to be told our reservation was CANCELED. Mgr said he tried 1x to call, but left no message. Then he claimed I’m a NO SHOW? UNTRUE. Also, place was disgusting and looked nothing like photo.Upon mgr telling me he canceled, we left.

Rooms Denied Upon Arrival

When we arrived, they told us our credit card had declined. We looked at our account on our app and it had gone thru. Now two days later the charge is still there on our account. I called the hotel and they said they never received the funds. I called Hotels.com and it looked like to them it had gone thru. They are contacting the manager at the hotel to get an explanation and refund. It was a low cost room, but the closest to our job. What a hassle for no room!
