Older property. It's just what you paid for. Three-stars but inexpensive. Very convenient to the airport.

Okay for a quick stopover.

There were some repairs that need to be done. Even though I did not have a pet with me, it looked like I was put in a room that had a dog previously. It looked like the dog had been put in the bathroom and had tried to escape. Overall the motel was fine for a quick stop over. My granddaughters and I had a good night's sleep. It was quiet and fairly clean. The pool and hot tub area did not look inviting at all. The door itself into the pool was filthy. I would spray that down and clean it with a dry eraser if it was me. There was no breakfast and the coffee was rank. I went to McDonald's and got a cup. The receptionist was exceptional. Friendly and helpful when our TV didn't work. She came right over and hooked up a cord that had gotten loose.

The people at front desk are not the friendliest, the hotel is old and not too clean, rooms are ok, we only spent one night but didn’t like it much. It did have a big ice machine we use, parking is easy.

Very clean! Rooms are quiet and are the perfect cool temperature for the summer. The mattress was so comfortable! Fell asleep as soon as I hit the bed. Fast check in, froendly staff. Outside entrances. Pool in an adjacent building. Plenty of vending machines. Looking for a bite to eat? At check,receive a coupon for Smittys down the road. Cute place, excellent food! Would highly recommended both the motel and restaurant. Definitely staying again. The price is unreal for the cleanliness, quality and service. The interior is a little dated but is in excellent shape! Very very clean.

We enjoyed staying. The bed was comfy, plenty of towels and was generally quiet. What would've made it better is having a continental breakfast.

I’m not sure how this got such a good rating on Expedia. We pulled in and my wife wanted to know what I was thinking reserving this place and asked if we could cancel. We could not. The outside of the motel was shabby and it looked as if some people were living in part of the hotel. Inside was dated with cinder block walls, 2 cracks running along length of ceiling, and full size bed. It was clean inside and a cheap price. I noted there were mostly nice vehicles in the parking lot in the morning, perhaps they too were misled by previous reviews.

We needed a place to stay last minute, and Motel West was a great, affordable option! It is older and the walls are thin so you can hear lots going on around the property, but the room was very clean and had everything we needed for a good night’s rest.
