The rooms here are old but comfortable and reasonably priced. The staff is wonderful and welcoming! They treat you respectfully and smile when you walk in and out, which is something too many places no longer do! There is a free breakfast from 4am to 9am daily, which is cereal or waffles and orange juice, and they don't charge a deposit on top of your discounted price which is wonderful since we are on a tight budget! Pillows were soft and bed comfortable!

Shower handle was broken so we only had scalding hot water. It was too late and we were too tired to switch rooms. The floor was badly damaged from a flood I guess. Paper thin walls so we could hear the neighbors doing nasty things.

I booked one queen since bed and they gave me two full size beds. Cleanliness was not present as the walls had stains all over the room of some red substance. The toilet had running water as the chain was probably broken and the water stained draining and caused an annoyingly constant sound all night. The restroom was very small. The pillows also smelled like head/ scalp. I guess we payed for what we got but I have stayed at similar priced hotels with far higher standards.

We did not stay here. This hotel was scary. We were concerned for our safety to spend the night here. The room reeked of smoke and I am pregnant so this was not an option for us to stay. We arrived from a long day of travel at 10pm and had to abandon our reservation due to safety concerns.

We stopped in our our way back home for a quick rest and regret that decision. I looked through all the photos (out dated- nothing looks the same in those photos) and recent reviews. Upon seeing several 8/10 to 10/10 reviews and then seeing the state of the motel and rooms- I have to ask myself were people given comped rooms for their dishonesty! The environment around the motel smelled of stale urine and garbage. Every door to each room had dents- how they got there unknown but didn’t give the illusion of safety. The room itself had missing chunks of lament flooring, a toilet that wasn’t secured, dry rot/mildew in the tub and baseboards, and at least 4 creepy crawly cockroach friends. Overall misleading reviews, pictures, and description of this motel. Do yourselves a favor and stay literally anywhere but here.

I arrived in my room, and it smelled like an ashtray.
I was assigned a different room, and as I opened the door, I saw Roaches running around on the wall and floor. I sat and called the front office, and they ran around in front of me on the floor.
The handyman accompanied me to the third room. As we opened the room, we saw a roach running on the wall. He pulled out a towel, smashed it, and said, "Don't worry if you only see one; you're okay; it's only a problem when you see more than one." As I was on the phone with the front desk, I saw a giant bed bug crawling across the floor, so I pointed that out to the handyman, and he said, "It's just a baby roach." he tried several times to smash it but he couldn't because it was not a roach but a bedbug who have a thick exoskeleton. I went to a 4th room, but I left all of my belongings in the sink and ended up leaving around 1 am as I was worried about the insects crawling into my belongings and me infecting my home.

The property wasn't kept clean. The breakfast area was messy, smelled of strong cleaning solution odor, and not regularly cleaned. The room floors were clean, bathroom was clean. Yet it's clear that the property wasn't kept up.

If you need a handicapped room call the hotel directly on the morning of your stay. No one pays attention to requests. I called to say I was going to be late checking in and was told I would be upstairs ( that was all they had left. Was rudely informed if I needed a handicapped accessible room I should have called early in the morning). Both the motel and hotels told me I didnt request special accommodations when my receipt clearly has a check mark for no stairs to entrance. When I arrived I did get a non smoking downstairs room but I was stressed for hours trying ro figure out how I was going to get my luggage upstairs. When I asked hotels.com to find me a hotel with a room downstairs or an elevator I was told I would have to pay for another room AND STILL PAY for the original hotel. God is good and I got a room downstairs in original motel.
Pay hotels/expedia directly or the price will go up $2-5 a night for a single (bed) room.

The first impression was when I first opened the door the a/c was missing the cover there were roaches, a lot of shady people around I would rather pay the $50 more and stay somewhere else

Absolutely awful. Can't believe Expedia has it rated as a "7 or better." After being sent to an occupied room followed by one that smelled bad and had water damage, on top of illicit activity in the parking lot, i had seen enough and returned my key - which didnt work at first anyway. Come on Expedia, do better!
