Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Overall a pretty terrible terrible stay

It wasn't filthy, but: - The front desk was never staffed (one key left with my name and room number on the counter) - so we never had wifi (never saw an employee) - breakfast area is tiny, and the juice machine and coffee maker both have "out of order" signs - there's a coffee maker in the room but no coffee or filters - tears in fitted sheets - hard, uncomfortable bed - two thin, hard pillows - there was a plastic bag over the smoke detector - there was bird poop all over the sidewalk outside our door Maybe the weirdest thing at this mostly abandoned motel with only two truckstops to keep it company: There was a creepy guy parked in the parking lot, who came over to me to ask if I had already reserved my room (which I had just used a key card to get into.) he didn't respond when I politely responded "yes, I do have a room, why do you ask?" but simply asked the question again two or three more ways. His truck moved around the parking lot several times, and was still parked there in the morning. Seemed like maybe he was hooking. Absolutely would just keep driving in the future.

I made reservations for this location while on the road, when we arrived at the property, there was no one, no one attending the front desk, we tried to call the two phone numbers we had for the property, and no one answered at all, we had to make reservations in another motel down the road. There were only three to two cars in the parking area, in the office they had

Great stay

For the price this place was amazing. Hot water, A/C, king size bed, clean linens. I even got a microwave and refrigerator. For the most part the room was quiet except for the birds in the morning but that didn't bother me much. It's not a place for everyone but for the price and a one night rest it was great and I would stay again.

Wouldn't recommend.

Reserved king and it wasn't avaliable, had to settle for 2 doubles. We veiwed 2 rooms to accept that one. 1st one wasn't even cleaned. The bed were not comfortable. Pillows were small and should be replaced as well as the stained sheets. I wouldn't stay here again. The lady at the front desk was pleasant and did the best she could with what she had.
