We stayed there Saturday night, paid for a king size bed. The room we got was 2 full size beds. The lamps in the room didn’t work. The rooms 💯 need to be updated for the price we paid. The emergency door that is in the hallway that leads to the outside was unlock the whole time. The beds were so small that two people can’t sleep in the same bed.

Gave us a room key to a room that was already occupied. Went back to the front desk to exchange for another room to find the person who checked us in left for a while and they could not help us. Later got a replacement room. We left our stuff in a room to come back and find someone came in and removed our belongings and we had to track them down. Don't plan to stay there again.

we were very disappointed with this motel reservation. When we first got there, there were several people around that were sketchy looking and our room wouldn't lock correctly. There was a schizo guy that kept waking us and then a fake fire. There was no smoke. No flames yet a fireman assaulted me trying to get me out of the room quicker than I could grab my stuff. we paid the price of a high quality motel and received an inferior room. also The room was offered as a non-smoking room yet- If you looked behind the furniture, the yellow walls showed that was not the case. I have never been so disappointed with a motel booking and truly feel that we should be reimbursed the total amount of the room. $295.68

When we arrived here there were signs all over the door that it was shut down by the city. It had been shut down for a month at that point. They accepted the reservation and took my money off my card immediately knowing that they were shut down and couldn't give us a room
