Office smells like curry, horrible parking, unfriendly person at counter, junk and trash against building, sidewalks dirty, food left in microwave, washcloths stained, had my own pillow thank goodness.
The vibe from the get was negative and sure enough. The owners very unprofessional. Would not recommend and would stay clear. There’s a reason they are a cheap ish motel.
Most important: The room was clean including the bathroom, floor and beds. The queen bed's comfort was OK for one person but it would suck if there were 2 people on it. The sheets were not soft and the top blanket was a throw back to the late 80's but kept me warm. Walls are thin so you can hear a lot from the adjoining rooms but the place was quiet after 9pm. If you are looking for cheap (under $100) and staying 1-2 nights it's not horrible. I have stayed in worse and paid more. If you are in the area for longer and desire more comfortable amenities you have a lot more options in the area.
