Building and rooms are not kept up and looks like a drug house. Garbage all over outside the parking lot and sketchy looking vehicles of people hanging around. Not feeling safe at all. Definitely a place if I didn’t have a handgun and wasn’t a big male, I would not stay here.

Checked in but could not stay the night. Everything from service to the room was horrible. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone! Unfortunately, you couldn’t pay me to stay the night here.
The motel needs more upkeep. Some areas are lacking. Furniture needs replacement. A refrigerator and microwave should be in the rooms, not downstairs and unkept. Quiet enough most of the time. Burns in bed covers that need to be changed out. VERY BASIC! At any price.
The bad attitude of the staff.
The TV. did not work.
They would not give you any towels until morning.
There were spiders in the shower.
The comforter on the bed was as thin as the sheet below it.
You could hear everybody else in the hotel above you and around you.
And it also smelled like weed!
It appears that the owners, man and wife are the rare exceptions. They were gracious, and made sure that we came first. Refreshing to be sure. I’m glad I got to meet them and I hope that they are there each time I roll through.
