I was in desperate need , when I inquired their quote was a lot higher than the internet ( I’m on a tight budget ) originally she was going to charge me $30 for my service animals but after I purchased on the internet she then charged me $235 for my pets , then I had to pay $40 for late checkout( the guy didn’t even want me to stay even though it’s advertised ) . The water pressure was horrible , I had to clean the room before I brought my stuff in , they had no “ do not disturb” signs, ( the guy in office took a piece of paper and wrote do not disturb and handed it to me) the other customers were sketchy to say the least . I found drug paraphernalia in the smoking / sitting area , many dogs of other customers were off leash , hair dryer didn’t work , no coffee pot , refrigerator was off initially, no pet area and the close parks don’t allow dogs. Honestly, for the price a little over $800 for a week , it isn’t worth it !!! I could have dealt with a lot but between not feeling safe , the staff were nasty, the water pressure, and the money .. I should’ve stayed somewhere else .

Could still hear trains go by around bedtime. I was in one of the few rooms where there was a room above - could hear folks walking upstairs on hardwood floor upstairs and folks talking in room next to me - not sound insulated. My bed squeaked. Bathroom recently upgraded and nice. Price is cheap, but they should still offer one bottle of water when you arrive.

There was some roaches here. Very noisy and disturbing guests playing loud music outside and slamming room doors. The train was loud and could be heard after 11 pm sometimes.

Ive stayed here many times and was satisfied but this time was terrible. The floor was filthy i couldnt walk barefoot on it and the towels were heavily previously stained with a grey material. Gross. I dont know if you get worse customer experience because you have a dog but they charge $35 a night exyra to stay in a room with filthy floors and stained towels.

The room was clean and looked just like the pictures. Everything was great except there was a horrible smell coming from the bathroom pipes. Staff was really nice. Other then that it’s a nice quick place to stay located near restaurants down the road

The A/C didn’t work when I checked in. I went to tell the worker who just stared at me and looked annoyed. After I told him for the third time and he still acted like he couldn’t hear me and wasn’t willing to walk up to the window I decided I would just leave and sleep on a couch. Wouldn’t stay here if they paid me. Very rude worker, also.

The rooms are actually beautiful! Bathrooms are new and the pricing is exceptional for the area! It is within walking distance of restaurants and shopping! The WiFi worked in the office but never worked in my room. It wasn’t a problem as I didn’t need it! There is a train that comes quite close; however, the noise is only temporary. It didn’t bother me. The staff were very nice as well!

Hotel.com rated this motel 7+ stars. This rating was completely wrong. The motel was truly an awful experience. I previously trusted Hotel.com’s rating but now I’m thinking differently. Might start using other hotel booking pages due to the lack of trust I have in that website. Sorry but just being honest.

Nice staff, but this place really needs to step up their game when it comes to cleanliness. The bathroom was not clean, the toilet was dirty even though it had the “sanitized” band around it, mirror had prints all over, sink was dirty. We had ants in the bathroom. Sheets had holes in them.
