I was not expecting this to be a motel, I should have read the description better- but for the price, I was expecting a hotel. We arrived at 10:30pm and had to check in thru a window in the entryway (like I was in a sketchy gas station in an inner city). Upon entering the room my daughter detected an odor, but I was hopeful our stay would turn pleasant, as the room had been redecorated and looked nice. Unfortunately the bathroom was not nice. Although it looked as clean as a motel bathroom can be, it smelled awful of mildew- there was no ventilation! There was an old vent/fan in the wall, but it was not hooked up to any switch. I could not even make myself shower here. We came, we slept, and we checked out as soon as we awoke the next morning.

The first room didn’t have a secondary security lock. They changed my room and the new room only had 2 working lights. It was like a dungeon. The WIFI required a password but the lady at the front desk kept saying they don’t have a password for it.

Bed had seen better days. Was really dim. Lobby and room smelled. Towels were really worn, needed to be replaced, so did the sheets. No coffee in the room. Hardly any water pressure. The only good thing I can say about this place is it was quiet. I wish I spent the extra money for a better hotel. Cheap is not always better.

We didn’t find any bed bugs, so that’s a plus. Room seemed clean but sheets had a few stains and a few rips. Most disappointing part was the “breakfast” had nothing but stale packaged muffins, overripe bananas, cereal but no milk, and chunky floaties in the apple juice and orange juice, like the dispenser machine needed cleaned. Nasty.
