I was the only guest when all surrounding hotels were full. Made me wonder what was wrong, but it turned out Ok. Seems like they’re doing a remodel

There’s a $25 parking fee and a $30 “resort fee” upon check-in, which was not mentioned on Expedia when booking. Not sure what a resort fee covers at a motel with a closed pool/spa and no WiFi in the rooms. The floor in the room was very obviously not vacuumed and the blanket on the bed was crusty. There’s plenty of other cheap motels in Stateline, don’t waste your time with this one.

Heat did not work, many other reviewers saying heat has not worked. Extra 80$ in service fees, parking fee is bogus. Would not stay here again
