    Mattress was super firm and very uncomfortable. The room had a faint smell of smoke.

    Staff was very friendly, rooms exterior entrance, curtains kept light out, which made it easy to sleep during daylight hours. Fridge work great, I didn't use microwave or coffee pot, but they were in the room. Price of the room was decent for the area.

    Needs updating. The chain on the door was missing. The toilet sounded like a machine and was deafining. A;so, It was miss a floor anchor so when you moved white sitting it rocked.

    The location is just where I needed to be. Next to highway with easy on and off. It was clean.

    No ice machine. I had 2 rooms, one room the air worked great! In the other room, the air barely worked at all. Some sheets had a yellow color to them. The toilet haven't been cleaned since the last guest checked out.

    It looked fairly clean on the outside and a fairly good area. It was an emergency last-minute booking. Our first res. was canceled because of a massive power outage from the night before. It was hard to find anything else.

    Used douche in drawer and nasty panties in bed. And the fact that there wasn't a pool, but the website says they have a pool.

    The room wasn't clean, and the advertisement said it had a pool. No pool, and there was a used douche in the dresser drawer and nasty panties in the bed. Very poor house keeping.

    The place is absolutely disgusting. Like if there would have been any other hotels remotely close with availability I would have checked out. I even considered spending the night in my vehicle instead. First thing that I noticed the musty smell. Then the patches of tape or wallpaper over certain spots to cover up what was underneath. Then the dust on the fridge and microwave. Then the headboard having something nasty on it that I had to wash off. Cleaned down the sink and toliet and door handles. But the real kicker was the hole in the shower. No idea what the hole was for and why it was there. Very scary and concerning that any motel would rent out a room that would have that. We found a way to cover the hole and showered in our swimsuits. Honestly I didn't even bother complaining at the front desk due to the negative comments the owners seem to make online anytime anyone points anything out. I was prepared for likely a not great experience but the reviews didn't truly tell how horrible it actually is.

    The guy running the desk was super nice. It was the only hotel available near where I had to go super early the next morning. They let me just leave the key in the room due to the super early check out needed.

    Found Syringe With Needle Underneath Mattress

    We didn't even stay because we found a syringe with a needle attached to it in between the mattress and the boxspring, and this was very off-putting to us, so we ultimately decided that we didn't want to stay and when we brought this up to the attention of the staff they offered us no compensation and no care was brought to the situation. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Waste of $90 I should have been given a refund.

    Absolutely nothing! I wouldn't recommend staying here or wasting your money.

    The staff was friendly and accommodations clean. Room had a comfortable bed, excellent heater, large tv with satellite connection, microwave, fridge, desk & office chair, table & chairs for eating at, and clean bathrooms. Motel has been around a while, but what it lacks in fancy it makes up for in affordability and friendliness.

    When I booked, I requested a first floor room, to which I got a response that my request was "accepted". We get there and are informed there aren't any first floor rooms left with one bed. When I showed the guy my request, he waved me off and said that's just an automatic response that sends. If you're aware of the problem, what are you doing to fix it? The place looks run down and not what I expected for the area it's in. The railing upstairs is loose and a hazard and the bed was horribly uncomfortable. There were cobwebs in the bathroom.

    It was located close to where we needed to be. It was cheap, but you pay for what you get obviously
