Ok for overnight

If there are other choices for a bit more money, I'd skip this place and go there! The bed was comfortable sheets were clean but the room itself needs a thorough deep clean.

We couldn’t get in the room. The owner was always there and said that if could bother him , if we couldn’t get in. When we returned for the night, all we had to do was turn the knob. Meaning - the door was unlocked. Of course, the dead bolt worked. It is an old motel. Needs updating.

Our room was very dirty, there was "seasoning" all over the floor so we wouldn't take our shoes off. There was something smeared on the mattress protector that may or may not have been poo, gross either way. The water smells like eggs. The man at the desk who im assuming is the owner was very friendly. Seemed like he was the only employee.

The room was austere and unwelcoming. The water took minutes to get hot and smelled like sulfur. The room had an ice bucket but there was no ice machine on the premises. The parking lot was covered in maple seeds that tracked all over the place and in one’s car.
