Worst motel ever. Paid for 3 nights. Had to leave after the first.
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 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

Between the roaches and the mice in the room I can only do 1 star.
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.
We pulled up and the place is a mess!!!! Not like it showed in the pictures. False advertisement. I will never stay there!!!

We had to furnish our own toilet paper and lightbulbs hold were patched with mouse trap. We got three towels for three days and went and got her own towels. There was no breakfast false advertisement
Was a crack hotel for sure. Sink broken literally had a hole where water was coming thru. Faucet broken could not turn it off so flooded room. Staff not present to address said issue. Ghetto coffe make barely worked. Crackpipe burns allover tub. Were given 1 small thin blanket and 2 small pillows about as thick as carboard. My arm worked better. Lastly, a million gigantic potholes in parking lot. Not worth what I paid. Run!!!
This property was terrible. The pictures shown for the property were nothing like how it is in person. Not even 24 hours into my stay walking into my room 2 rats ran across to under the bed. Front staff was rude and not helpful at all, he denied to provide a refund. Do not book here!! Pictures are misleading and the whole place itself is bad and dirty.
