Fan switch was broken, so it was almost impossible to change it or turn it off. Photo of property in Expedia was very misleading, in terms of location, surroundings and how everything seemed new or polished within the room. Not enough cups, plates and no screens for windows to stop bugs. Again, very misleading. Properties must be shown as they are.

We stayed at the Motel Nomad about 10 days ago and found the room dirty which resulted in a poor review. The manager responded to my review & then contacted myself to make sure this situation wouldn’t happen again. We had stayed another night yesterday and arrived to find a dirty, wet towel hanging in the bathroom. We immediately contacted the manager who apologized and had the towel removed + provided us with some compensation. We were very grateful to the manager for acknowledging the issues + the compensation.
