68$ was not worth it.

The room was dirty and you can tell nobody cleans. You couldn’t walk barefoot. They were stains behind the bed. We even had to ask the front desk for clean towels because you tell they were dirty. The staff was no surprise.

Never Again

The room had dust and cobwebs in the corners. The ironing board was stained and looked disgusting. The shower head and the drain was disgusting, I had to clean them myself. One of our washcloths had black spots and brown spots on it and our towels were stained. The cover on the bed had stains all over it. The walls had a dead bug on it and stains. The wifi was terrible and only lasted for 24 hours. The walls were super thin, we heard everything our neighbors were doing. The parking lot is a one way in, one way out setup and makes for a dangerous situation if traffic is steady. There weren’t enough space in the parking lot for guests, some had to use makeshift parking spots. The woman who checked me in was pretty rude but the other woman who checked me out was much more kind. It is located in a convenient area…there are so many great restaurants nearby and accessible! You can walk to all of them, even the grocery store across the street. Overall, I would never stay at this motel again.

My stay

It was a one night stay, everything was ok minus a couple of things I did not find very pleasant,(found hairs under the covers, and the bed itself was not very soft) Other than that, everything was great. Loved the shower..

The room was not sanitized, is a potential COVID hotspot and there is no housekeeping at all. We had a terrible experience at this motel. The room appeared ok at first, but then we saw that one of the pillow covers was dirty and the second pillow had no cover. The bed sheet smelled,and there was hair on the bed. It got worse as we saw hair in the shower and in the sink. This place was not sanitized, at all. There wasn't even a fresh toilet roll in the bathroom. We didn't want to take any chance with COVID, so we left that night without sleeping in the dirty room.

shady?

He wanted to see the ID of my boyfriend who was staying with me and wouldn’t give me the room. So at first I was greeted by a woman who didn’t speak English then came her son I believe and wanted my boyfriends ID. I showed him mine and when I called my boyfriend over he said no that’s okay I need the name of everyone whose staying in the room. Like what the heck? It was just my bf and myself. And when my bf saw that they were being weird they changed their mind. I was so confused.
