The saying you get what you pay for is fitting for this motel. The price is right, the location is right and the shower pressure is amazing. However, everything else was not. The floors were filthy, hair everywhere, I found dog kibble in the bathroom and even had loose strands of hair on my towel, along with baby roaches on the floor. I was completely disgusted and unfortunately the front desk staff was too over all the problems here to be able to change much. Several of the other tenants are live-ins and seem to be drunks and addicts. When we pulled in someone was being taken away by ambulance. If you can spare the extra money to stay somewhere nicer and cleaner, do it. Spare yourself the disgust.

The location is okay, but the motel itself is extremely outdated and in serious need of renovation. The room lighting consists entirely of harsh neon lights, creating an uncomfortable, clinical atmosphere similar to a hospital operating room. Most concerning, however, is the strong odor of chemicals or pesticides in the room, which made it difficult to sleep. There’s also an internal window that cannot be opened, likely due to safety and privacy concerns. What stood out most, unfortunately, was the attitude of the front desk staff. The receptionist seemed disinterested and unwelcoming, behaving as though assisting guests was a burden. Overall, this was a very unpleasant experience, I wouldn’t stay here again, even if it were offered for free.
