Run down beyond belief. Shower was barely able to provide temperature and had to mess with the faucet forever to get it to anything except cold. Bed was broken down on one side. No microwave. The only decent part was the TV.

The motel was clean and reasonably kept up, but I wouldn’t stay there as a single woman-with no partner with me. A lot of veterans and workers stayed there and the few women residents? stood outside to smoke and yell across at each other. There were a lot of friendly loud people milling around most of the night outside the door. The room had fresh paint & clean sheets, but the shower/tub hot water dial handle was broken and just dangled from the big protruding bolt. I worked for a while trying to get water from the shower. If the proceeds all go to homeless veterans, it was worth the price for the room. I’m all for worthy causes.

I'm a district manager for a restaurant chain in Lake City and visit here twice a month. I always stay at Motel 8 not just because of the price but because for the value you will not find a cleaner room, a better nights sleep and a more caring staff. Yes, its true it doesnt look like much from the outside but as they say "do not judge a book by its cover." You will be pleasantly surprised by how good the rooms are. I dont understand these people who write these ridiculous, nasty reviews because I have never had any issue with this hotel. No bugs, no stains on my sheets, great a/c's, nice flat screens with Roku, and although people who are there long term do converse outside they are nice people and very courteous of others. I know for a fact the hotel buys dozens of brand new sets of sheets and pillow cases every month. Every time I have been there I find a gift basket of drinks, snacks and hygiene products waiting for me in my room and there are always mints on the pillow. I like the staff and the owner because they give an extreme personalized touch. They know everyone there and they treat their guests with respect and friendliness. You are not just a signature. You are a welcomed guest.

Being remodeled, nice staff, nice clean room, outdoor free. Only problem would be for short people to reach the AC controls, AC mounted high.
