Skip it unless you have to
This was just barely acceptable as a place to lay my head for the night. Run down, threadbare, out of the way motel with nothing to recommend it or the town it was located in. Staff were reasonably friendly but the property felt unsafe and was certainly unpleasant. They seemed to be doing their best but I only stayed because I had been driving all day and had paid a nonrefundable price.

Gross
We stayed here one night on our roadtrip from So. Cal to Seattle because it was convenient and inexpensive. The exterior looked nice enough and the lady at the front desk was friendly. Unfortunately, the room smelled like it had been sprayed with a ton of Febreze to cover up the fact that it was barely cleaned. There was human hair on the bedding and the floors were dirty. The lower part of the walls were brown and disintegrating in places (possible mold..?) There were kids stickers on the mirror. The bath towels were about as big as a hand towel, no hairdryer and no bedside lamps (just very bright spotlights). We would have left after seeing (smelling) the room but is was after 11pm at this point and we were exhausted. Don't stay here unless you're really on a budget and can overlook odor and filth.

We stayed in a room facing the highway. Very loud. The breakfast area was out of most items that they normally have. We stay here regularly, but this time they disappointed us a little. Staff was great!

Basic place to stay - which is fine!
This is a basic room, which is exactly what I expect each time I stay here. Vagabond fulfills my expectations: Reasonably priced, clean enough, no bed bugs, and a place to get a quick night of sleep before continuing to the next destination. It can be a little noisy due to freeway noise, but turn on the room fan and you'll never notice. It also offers breakfast that starts at 4 in the morning. While Vagabond doesn't offer anything special, it also does not give any negative surprises either.
