The staf was wonderful and helpful. The hotel was 2 star, but I gave it 3 stars because of the staff and location. The room smelled of mildew. The toilet overflowed. It seemed sketchy.

The bathtub did not drain and the ac unit was too high to reach and I didn’t see a remote for it. The outlets on the lamps didn’t work. The mattress protector was ripped open and exposed. Beat up furniture. Great location though.

Everything was clean and tidy. However, the motel was worn out. The furniture was a mess; the "leather" chair was worn and the 'leather' finish worn off, so the chair itself was scratchy and uncomfortable. The bed was horrible; the springs could be felt and they made a horrible noise every time we shifted. This place is fine for a very limited stay.

The Colton Motel was overbooked so we were bumped to their sister motel, the Budget Host Three Crowns just down the street. The cost, with taxes, was just shy of $110/night, which was significantly less than other in-town lodging. We often stay in budget places, we're not expecting anything fancy. The location was fantastic. The room was clean, if worn. The gal we dealt with was lovely. As a woman who generally travels alone or with my sister, security is important. Traveling from NC we knew we'd likely arrive after the 10pm office closing time. Fortunately I phoned as we were on our way. That is when I discovered we'd been moved & that our key would be waiting by the office. After several long traffic delays we arrived at almost midnight. A note was taped to the office door with my name & room number & direction that the key was under the door mat...something that anyone could have taken advantage of. I checked the whole room before bringing anything in. It was fine but that was a lack of security awareness I was not impressed by. There was only one chair which was worn & had a metal piece poking through the upholstery into the sitter's leg. There was no where else to sit but the beds and the lobby where the coffee & honey buns were set out was not an option for spending any downtime. The mattresses are worn & the towels were not absorbent. There are not enough electrical outlets and none available at the sink & mirror where one is most needed.
