Motel clerk really stressed the fact that I was NOT to smoke in the room. But the room reaked of smoke and there were cigarette burns all over the beds. Linen was also dirty.

The property and staff were great, the rooms were very clean and updated recently. The neighborhood was definitely a bit sketchy and not a good place to be out alone alone after dark.

The price is good. BUT this has to be one of the most poorly managed hotel I have ever stayed at. I stayed here last year, and they were doing renovations and my room had no clothes hanger. We searched 2-3 rooms and none had clothes hangers. This year, again no clothes hangers in my first room. So they did not fix the problem in 12 months. Other people in my party had flooding in the shower (drain did not work), only one working electrical socket. The people running the place are nice, but they are not organized enough to make notes of the problems in each room and fix them.

Check out is at 11 and the property manager didn’t allow to stay after 11:30, deactivated the keys. Inspite of asking the previous day manager this happened. Especially with checkin at 3 pm this happened. The lady is so rude and pushed us out.
