The parking lot is full of pot holes, be careful or you will need new rims. The mattress was so old the springs are felt through. Room was clean and neat. The stray dog crying all night near my door, kept me up all night. Good location
This is probably the cheapest stay you will find. You pay for what you get, bedding was clean, but the room looks like has not been meticulously cleaned in years. Like in the corners near the fridge there is old dehydrated food and dirt. Overall it will save the day if you are on a budget, the people who works there is nice.

Worst motel ever. Paid for 3 nights. Had to leave after the first.
The room was clean and spacious but there was no ice machine the waterpresure in shower was horrible and at 1 point we didnt even have water the toilet ran the whole time
There wasnt a hot tub like the advertised and know breakfast.and hwy i20 right next to motel noise from hwy was horrible it was over priced for the room.
It was stated on hotels.com to pay at the property. When we paid it was a $40 difference. Spoke to the owner he said that covers his 15% he has to pay hotels.com. Then they charged our card 3x’s. They did reverse the charges 2 days later when we brought it to their attention. These people are scammers ! Beware
Horrible hotel. Mold in the room and took off a mirror and put in corner to cover it, towel sticking out of exhaust fan, window was left open upon arrival without a screen, tv only 3 channels came in, and volume was minimal, water ran in bathroom. Honestly the worst hotel I have been in.
This place should be condemned. Exposed electrical wires, ceiling falling in, one outlet held up with duct tape, smoke detector secured by duct tape. The parking lot looked as if it were mortared. This hotel should not be on Hotels.com. I wish I could get my money back.
A lot of appliances needs replacing, spiders is an issue, room service needs better job. Bed covers need replacing, A/C doesn’t not adjust to temperature set, pavement in park lot has pot holes all over. Room key had to be reset every other day, homeless walking around outside.
This place is filthy. Mattress looked like it had been pulled out of a creek. Towels looked like they were donated from a prison. 93 bucks and a $50 deposit for ‘damages’? This place is a real rat hole. I think I’m gonna need a tetanus shot

Absolutely garbage, I contemplated sleeping in my truck. The room was nasty, unclean, broke fixtures… worst overpriced room I’ve stayed at in the last 20 years. This one took the cake.
Giant pot holes, filthy room, filthy floors, and peeling paint on all walls and door. Had to sleep with my firearm und my pillow. Stains on sides of matress. Burn holes in bedspread.
Very dark room, no place to plug in my devices
