Don’t stay here unless you like dirt and cigarette smoke. The entire place needs pressure washing. The TV was not working and we were told by the front desk that we would receive a partial refund. When I checked about it the next day the new front desk person said not possible. There are what appears to be long term residents that smoke continually and mill about. It looks like at one time this hotel was kept up with nice grassy areas and poop bag stations but not anymore it is just dry grass, dog poop, cigarette butts and dirt everywhere. The air conditioning units are so dirty I highly doubt any of them have been cleaned in years. Most of the stairs are falling apart. Don’t spend any money to stay here sleep in your car instead.

Clerk was friendly when I checked in, but gruff with the other members of my party when they stopped in to show their id and give auto information. Shower is very small. A/C either way too cold or off. But what one would expect for the price in this location.

It’s a motel 6. It gets the job done for the price you pay. My room had a leaky faucet (I never brought it up because I’m lazy) and a shower that was hot for only 3 minutes after you turned it on (again, I never brought it up because I’m lazy) My room smelled like BO so bad that I bought a car freshener to put in the air conditioner. It didn’t do anything. Overall, the stay was fine, I spent most of my time outside of the property. The bed was comfy and the sheets were clean.

Disgusting!!!

Absolutely the most disgusting hotel I have ever stepped foot in. If I could give zero stars I would. Room smells like dog pee, wood floor was breaking into pieces. Room was extremely filthy. The top of the mini fridge had not been wiped off, there was a 1/4 inch of dust on the wall lamps, floors were not cleaned food and mud were all over the floor. I asked to look at another room and the front desk clerk said he had to come smell the room first and walked in with a bottle of spray cleaner. When I started pointing out how dirty it was, he told me that there was no way to make me happy and that it is to be expected to have to deal with other people’s stuff when traveling. Immediately requested a refund and left.
