Loud and no staff

I'm a solo traveler. At some point after I went to sleep a very loud gathering happened seemingly right outside my door. It was LOUD and when I tried to call the desk there was no answer. I felt incredibly unsafe as well as having my sleep interrupted to the point that I do not feel safe driving today

After reading all of the positive reviews we were surprised to find all these issues with the room: -what appeared be blood stains on the bed sheets -shower didn’t work properly (hot water and water pressure) - bathroom was grimy with missing tile and missing door molding -slight odor in the room It’s nice to save money but it’s worth it to pay a little extra and stay in one of the nice properties in town (Packwood House, Arbor House, Sherwood Inn)

This motel was comfortable but bare-bones. The lobby was never open; we had to ring and call for service. Bathroom had no plugs/outlets, toilet handle was cracked. Beds were comfy and clean. Seemed overpriced for what we got.

Booked standard apartment which was spacious and comfortable but this property needs some improvements and modernization. Stayed for two nights with no fresh towels or housekeeping service. Hot water in shower was very difficult to control, either too cold or too hot. The bed was old and way too soft.

The motel is good for the price and also it is pet friendly . The beds are comfortable and it is quiet to sleep. The area around the motel is beautiful with lots to do. There is some other nice amenities such as a larger room refrig and full size coffee maker. Good for one night and if you are on a budget.

Easy to unload and load up the car. The highway was noisy but once you were in the room you couldn’t hear it. Didn’t like a the notes in the room about how to get rid of the garbage and how to get clean towels. Beds were not made,coffe maker wasn't cleaned and neither were our coffee mugs.
