You get what you pay for

For a $50 hotel I would wasn’t expecting much and I was right for feeling that way. Room was embarrassingly sparse. Tv didn’t work. Bed was uncomfortable. Light was so bright from the hallway spilling in the though gaps in the door, it was bright all night long. There had obviously been smoking in my room at some point (not just tobacco) and the smell wasn’t covered up well. It gets two stars and not one simply because it’s the cheapest motel in the area and you shouldn’t expect very much when you pay so little. I will say the guy who checked me in, did try to be friendly and interactive.

Economic stay. Property under renovation. Asked for additional pillows, it took a day as first guy asked did not provide, so only had extra pillows the second day. External doors slammed, noisy, for security. Door closure could be done much better. Water pressure good. You get what you pay for. We usually will not stay in such a place.

It’s ok…

Well it’s a Super 6… so it’s not the cleanest nor does it smell good. But, want a cheap place for a night.. then it’s ok.
