This place is gross and unsafe. My room hadn't been cleaned. I had to go ask for towels, the desk clerk asked another, "do we even have any?" And they were able to produce some. One of the pillows didn't have a pillowcase. There was no soap. It was a non smoking room that reeked of cigarettes and had cigarette burn holes in the blanket. The lobby was filled with men drinking and the clerk announced that I was just off the lobby, in a room that had only one deadbolt lock. Absolutely foul experience.

I had booked a two night stay but checked out after one night. First, I was assigned a room whose door would not open so got re-assigned to a room apparently used for storage. I hardly slept because it was so cold as the heating did not work and there were no blankets. There was no hot water in the sink and the shower did not operate so I had to take a bath. Also, although I arrived very late at night (1.45 a.m.), there were "guests" wandering around the floors. It did not feel safe. AVOID.

This is an older, fairly rundown hotel with limited services and amenities. But if you just need a place to crash for a few hours, it's fine. Relatively clean and comfortable, shower worked great, and it was quiet. I got the sleep I needed and moved on down the road.

Worst motel/hotel stay ever..

We waited at the check-in counter under crumbling and peeling ceiling, in a filthy lobby that reeked of cigarettes and weed while the one attendant was taking the longest bowel movement in a “out of order” lobby bathroom…the fact that there is a $75 damage deposit is a joke) We got our key, went up to the no smoking room, after walking through the hallway that smelled like a dispensary, only to find flickering lights, ripped sheets, one bed kind of made the other definitely not. Blood spots on the sheets, toilet used and not clean, used cup on the bathtub, and expired curdled milk in the dirty refrigerator. The remote didn’t work for the tv, no wifi, and to top it off, the barking dog and loud talking and door slamming in the next room made it next to impossible to sleep.. had we not had a 8 hour drive home there’s is no way I would have sucked it up and stayed.. slept fully clothed and used extra t shirts for pillow cases. This place needs to just be bulldozed and turned into a parking lot.
