Not great. The towels are garbage and should have been replaced decades ago - much like everything in this place. Tub was scary and the bathroom door is damaged. The main deadbolt doesn't work nor did the door lock to the adjoining room. That wasn't our room either. The breakfast in the mornings is terrible. The eggs were very undercooked and the poor girl working by herself was overwhelmed. The only redeeming food were the waffles BUT, there is one iron and everyone was trying to get theirs. It took us nearly 30 minutes to get any. We had to "check out" to check back into our room to extend a day. Its was very odd. Broken down cars and other loitering that shows it's not a safe area.

I would not stay here again if it were the last hotel standing. Place was dirty ( someone’s dirty sock was in the corner behind the door) bathroom door wouldn’t close; door to the unit wasn’t much better. Go anywhere else.

Staff was very nice and helpful. Property is a little older and worn down. Toilet paper holder was coming out of the wall and the drain inside the tub wouldn't stay open during your shower.

No breakfast. They make you put a deposit you’ll never get back. Do not stay here whatever you do.

We were warned at checkin that my card would be charged if there was smoking in the room. As we pull up to our room there are sketchy people just sitting inside a car next to our room. Looked as if they were on the nod. IYKYK. Then we enter the room and it smells like smoke! As we are leaving to tell the front desk there was a gunshot sounding in the neighborhood behind the motel. We don’t stay. We left and made the drive back home. I don’t even want to argue a refund. Keep the money.
