4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness
This is one of those motels where you feel like you need to wear flipflops while walking on the car l carpet because it looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in decades. They clearly don’t bother to maintain the rooms as there multiple things barely holding onto the walls etc. you get what you pay for and if you’re paying more that $20 then you’re overpaying. The bed was comfortable though.

I liked the price and for an older property it was pretty clean. Bath fixtures and beds were clean. It smelled clean! Floor is tile, and I couldn't tell. I have three minor critiques. I ran the hot water a long time, and it didn't get hot. The stopper in sink did not work. There was no clothes rod to hang clothes other than the shower curtain rod. For a cheap property, it was not bad.

This hotel needs major remodeling! I probably wouldn’t stay there again. We traveled to watch theTotal Solar Eclipse in Dexter, MO. It was the cheapest place to stay in the area at the time. I would not recommend this place.

Bed bugs. Stayed for 2 nights and had booked for 7 days, I did not get reimbursed for the other nights that I didn’t stay. I had to leave as I had a swollen eye due to a bed bug bite and bites over the body. I have pictures of the bed bugs in the pillow and my blanket.

Disgusting! There was urine on the sheets and pubic hair. The beds were made to hide the dirty sheets. Cigarette burns on blanket. Kids had bed bug bites the next day. Don’t stay here!
