Locals will say this is a bad area of town, but I had no problems.
I also thought this was the airport Motel 6 which it was not.

Horrible. The front desk guy was great but the room was dirty, they painted the bathtub to cover stains? No door seal on front door. The buttons on the heater unit were missing. I didnt shower here cause the shower head was so filthy i didnt want to get sick or have health issues. I wont be using expedia again.
