I stayed here several years ago, and found this an acceptable location with minimal but clean services. Unfortunately, it looks like nothing has been done to maintain the building since then. There was a cockroach in the bathroom, one light did not work, and the carpet under the bed was moist and gross to touch with bare feet. Additionally, the mattresses were extraordinarily thin and uncomfortable, and one of the double beds made a loud metallic thunking noise every time my partner rolled over. I know this is a motel in a city, but it will not be one we return to--there are other hotel and motels in the area for around $10 more per night that are absolutely worth that extra ten spot.

I showed up with a reservation and was told no rooms were available, even though the clerk confirmed I needed an accessible room. He got on his phone and called someone (manager?) and was told to tell me no rooms were available! Horrible! I then had to go back online to find a room somewhere else! I made reservation at Red Roof WEEKS ago to avoid this!
