You get what you pay for. The rate I received this room at was incredible, so no complaints. They are older rooms BUT are in the process of being remodeled. I LOVED the fact that the room had laminate and NOT carpet. The staff was incredibly nice.

STAY AWAY

Hey. As horrible as can be. Rundown dillapidated building. I honestly didnt know a room could be so bad. LITERAL stains all over the bed sheets, the towels were stained yellow, no chain on the door. Unsafe area. Drug dealers and pimps operating out of here as well. I literally didnt even stay. I walked in, saw the room, and left. It's the cheapest hotel around...but it comes with a huge saftey and hygiene cost. Please respect yourselves and pay extra for another hotel in the area.

I know you get what you pay for, but SERIOUSLY, could I at least get a clean room? The sheets and towels were all so stained that I couldn’t tell if they were dirty or clean and stained. There were no lamps on the bed stands, so I moved a bed stand closer to bed to use my phone for lighting, and there were cigarette butts and a ton of dirt under where it was. Walking across the floor barefoot left my feet black on the bottom. I checked into my dark and dingy room and left shortly thereafter and slept in my car that night. Disgusting doesn’t even begin to describe the room. I would expect this as normal somewhere in the back woods of a third world country, certainly not in the US. I wouldn’t even give it a 1 star. AND they advertise that their rooms and property are kept to COVID standards for cleanliness. Definitely false advertising, and honestly the only reason why I booked a room there. I can do old and outdated, but definitely do not pay $65/night for filthy and disgusting.

Don't waste your time or money

The staff was the rudest that I have ever encountered. There was clearly drug activity in the parking lot and the staff could care a less. They advertise as being pet friendly but don't tell you that there is a 30 pound limit. The pictures are completely deceiving, this place was so rundown and dirty, inside and out, the outside is falling apart. It was so bad that we actually ended up leaving and went to another hotel

Don’t stay here.

Disgusting. My “non smoking” room reeked of cigarette smoke and the smoke detector was wrapped in a garbage bag. The pillows were yellow and had cigarette burns everywhere. How this place is still open is beyond me.

A place to be avoided

Very rough even by budget motel standards. My non smoking room smelled strongly of cigarettes. The room looked more like an institution than a motel. Bed only had two thin sheets. No furniture to sit on, no arm chair, no desk chair. No phone in the room. When I mentioned the smell an employee said he would see what he could do and then never came back. The grounds looked dilapidated, trash laying around. There was a place across the street advertising lower rates, it couldn't have been any worse.

If it was anywhere besides a small town- I would’ve thought I would be murdered. All the furniture was damaged, the microwave was broken, the room smelled like cigarettes and alcohol even though it was a non smoking room, the towels were stained… the list goes on. But what can you expect from the cheapest hotel I guess

Rough and More Ruff

The site was dirty, messy, weeds are grown in the driveway, surrounding area is absolutely not for the weak. Homeless people close by. My husband had to use his shoulder to bust our door open because it was stuck. There were staples to keep the door tight. The shower had a crack in the bottom. The room was straight gray and was not like in the pictures on this site. The office was nothing like it either from the site, nor was the surrounding area. You would feel safer with a gun under your pillow and a crap car because yours would most likely be stripped. It was absolutely terrible. You are also not far from the prison. Not far enough for me.
