All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
First off, the front desk guy was very helpful and accommodating (he is the only aspect of that motel that deserves any stars at all). Also, we survived the stay, which is a plus. That's where the pros end. The initial room stunk so badly of dog urine that we could not be in it (and we are very tolerant of smells). We were able to swap rooms, but the second room was so filthy that we were afraid to touch the bathroom door as it looked like it had feces all over the frame (at this point we had hoped it was dog and not human) and the floor had sticky goo all over it. The mattress was so badly caved in that we woke up in pain all over. Part of the building had burned down and is boarded up. This stay was an adventure; but not one I care to repeat. We would have not stayed here at all, if not for the fact that by the time we got here we were too exhausted to drive anywhere else.
This used to be a viable option for travel. However, the last two times I stayed there, opting for a deluxe room, there has been no microwave and a refrigerator that operates at a temperature that cannot be even classified as cold. The staff is always awesome. I just wish there was some more care to the amenities.

Make sure you have your slippers!
Cons:
- dirty floor
- shower
- noisy heater
- very old pillows
Pros:
- price
The notes were ignored. The room was extremely dirty and the whole facility is in disrepair. Strong odor of urine throughout the room. The toilet did not flush well.
Light in shower was flickering enough yo give a person a seizure. Had to leave the light all night for it to eventually stop sink outside bathroom didn’t drain half the time. The beds in that room weren’t that comfy and you could tell they needed replacement , we could feel the springs. We wanted a smoking room ,but dealt with having to go outside in the elements to smoke.
