As soon as I entered the room, I noticed the cigarette smoke smell right away. The comforter on bed has cigarette burn, the room was terrible. I asked the staff if I can change room, he was nice enough to accommodate my request, but he gave me a smaller room that has no table to eat.

Room smelt like cigarette smoke. Meth addicts roaming/staying at motel. Internet connection was too weak to work in room #5. Burn marks/tagging/graffiti on what few pieces of furniture exist. I wasn't able to shower as the water wasn't functioning properly and the bath knobs were falling off their fixture. Terrifying experience, this shouldn't even be an option available through Expedia.

This is a motel after all. It had a string smell of cigarettes. In the room there was only a bed, a small table and a mini fridge. The AC wasn't working at first in my original room. I had to get moved to a second room and that AC wasn't working. It turns out they had blown a fuse or a circuit breaker. All the rooms are not painted well and mismatching paint everywhere. You get two really thin pillows and a blanket,hat's barely that. I had to get my a key card reprogrammed everyday for some reason. There is a mandatory $20 deposit but it is refunded to you when you check out.
