Won’t stay here again
Shower handle was broken so we only had scalding hot water. It was too late and we were too tired to switch rooms. The floor was badly damaged from a flood I guess. Paper thin walls so we could hear the neighbors doing nasty things.

Low tier stay
I booked one queen since bed and they gave me two full size beds. Cleanliness was not present as the walls had stains all over the room of some red substance. The toilet had running water as the chain was probably broken and the water stained draining and caused an annoyingly constant sound all night. The restroom was very small. The pillows also smelled like head/ scalp. I guess we payed for what we got but I have stayed at similar priced hotels with far higher standards.

Horrifying. Do not book.
We did not stay here. This hotel was scary. We were concerned for our safety to spend the night here. The room reeked of smoke and I am pregnant so this was not an option for us to stay. We arrived from a long day of travel at 10pm and had to abandon our reservation due to safety concerns.

Misleading Reviews
We stopped in our our way back home for a quick rest and regret that decision. I looked through all the photos (out dated- nothing looks the same in those photos) and recent reviews. Upon seeing several 8/10 to 10/10 reviews and then seeing the state of the motel and rooms- I have to ask myself were people given comped rooms for their dishonesty! The environment around the motel smelled of stale urine and garbage. Every door to each room had dents- how they got there unknown but didn’t give the illusion of safety. The room itself had missing chunks of lament flooring, a toilet that wasn’t secured, dry rot/mildew in the tub and baseboards, and at least 4 creepy crawly cockroach friends. Overall misleading reviews, pictures, and description of this motel. Do yourselves a favor and stay literally anywhere but here.
