Oh boy, I have never bailed on a hotel/motel in my entire life until now. I have stayed in old, out-of-date, and rustic places before, and that's all fine, but this place has problems. The room absolutely reeked of Marijuana, the arm rests on the chair I sat in were sticky, there was a stain on the bathroom counter that made me think someone left a rusty paint can on the counter for a long period of time, and there were multiple winged insects in the room. My husband killed 4 of them and saw more before we called it quits. Also, some of the large support columns for the walkway on the second floor were clearly breaking, which is TERRIFYING. Some of them had extra, smaller columns added around them to try and hold them up, so the property owner is clearly aware, but why not replace the actual large columns themselves? The nice man working in the front office was very police and agreed to refund us, so I have no complaints at all about the staff or about the service we received. I don't think I'm a terribly high-maintenance traveler, but I couldn't stay in this place.

This is hands down the worst I’ve ever stayed in. The pictures on hand when booked look nothing like the garbage room they put us in. Walking through the door we were transported back to 1970. The place is disgusting outside was to. Trash and beer cans at the bottom of the stairs. The mattress should have been discarded 20 years ago. It was hard as concrete and the bed squeaked everytime you twitched. The furniture was disgusting. Chairs were massively stained and dirty. Table felt like it hadn’t been wiped down. AC rattles like it gonna fall out of the wall. Toilet runs every 10 minutes all night long. Pay extra and stay elsewhere. I will never stay at this dump again. Take down the false pics and put up ones that actually look like what you’re renting. I also took pics and as soon as I can figure out how to post them, I will.

front desk staff was great, very kind. The people staying and milling around the hotel and surrounding area is sketchy, drug activity, possibly additional other illegal interaction occurring by people in the area. We had only been there 10 minutes and had a strong feeling our car would be stolen if we stayed over night due to the interest in the vehicle by the people milling around. Also, the room we were provided was nice and clean, but it was an adjoining room, and my husband was immediately able to gain entry to the connection room next door. Unnerving, as we then felt our room could not be secure if the opposite were true. A hard no on this location. Again, nice staff, terrible activity in the area and at the hotel itself. Does not recommend.

The room was filthy. The sheets had what looked like blood stains on them. The bedspread felt dirty just touching it. There were easily 25 flies flying around the room. The air conditioner did not work; the toilet did not flush. The carpet was awful. I would never recommend this property and the one good thing I can say is we did not stay and got our money back.

VERY VERY CLEAN I stayed once before and I’ll likely stay again. It’s a rundown little motel in the middle of town. It’s exactly what you’d expect. However the sheets were spotless and the water was hot and I slept great

Great price.

The person who checked me in was really nice, it was close to everything, but the room and the bed were awful! The room smelled really bad, the bed was so hard it wasn’t even funny and the condensation was out of control, it was a decent property maybe I just got a bad room? I will stay again when I’m bad in Monroe.
The condensation on the windows, it was very mucky to sleep in everything was damp, when I woke up.
