This was the second-worst motel I have ever stayed in. The clothes rack fell off the wall in the middle of the night, the shower head was only 4 feet high, the bathroom mirror was hung 6 inches too low, the A/C was noisy. I reserved a non-smoking room; my room was a smokers room.This motel needs to be razed, and something useful built on the land.

DO NOT RESERVE! Horrible experience

Despite having a confirmed reservation and showing it to the receptionist, she couldn’t acknowledge the email with all the details of the reservation, even with a confirmation number. She could see I had a reservation but unable to figure out how to access it, even with the help of Hotels.com staff.

Gross

Bathroom was absolutely disgusting. The bathroom floor hadn’t been cleaned in weeks… hair and dirt all along walls. AC unit full of black yuck. Not a nice place. Wasn’t expecting a 5 star hotel for $100, but I was at a minimum expecting it to be clean.

I had to pay full price for room at hotel as they got no information from you and they would not accept anything from me pertaining to the booking. The clerk tried to call you as well as myself and all we got was the automated mess with no options to talk to anyone

Disliked: Amenities
Man was nice at check in. Room was acceptable, but not clean. TV and phone did not work, but was promptly fixed. Coffee pot was nasty. Coffee was terrible and didn’t fit the machine. Two of the three coffee bags were broken when i opened the pack. I did ask for 8 coffees for the next day, which is a lot. I was going to use two for each cup. The woman I asked was rather rude, but it was an uncommon request. She directed me to the housekeeper who was extremely nice. The next morning about 10 a man shook the door handle, the door must have not been locked because it opened. He asked if I was leaving or wanted to stay another night. He just opened the door! I carry a gun when I travel. NEVER EVER should someone bust into your room.
