No amenities. Not even an ice machine. Toilet, under sink and shower all leaked. Door lock was broken. No refrigerator or microwave. No hairdryer. Place was unkempt and dirty. Faucet on sick had no hot water pressure. The manager did move us to another room, but it wasn't much better. I can't believe Expedia would actually offer this hotel on it's site. Don't they inspect the properties before they try to book them? The manager did everything she could to make us more comfortable but it was too awful to do much. We were extremely overcharged for our stay. I would like a refund.

Smoky smelly room, no coffee in room, plus front office was locked when we went to get a coffee. Outlets were high on the wall and difficult to access. Room was barely adequate. Fortunately, it was only for one night.

Lady at front desk was friendly. Front motel door completely rustef. Room looked like it had not been used on awhile. Radiator cover missing off radiator in bathroom Tv remote dirty. Tv itself was dirty. Shheets were ok. No toilet paper, had to go to front desk to get. A real no frills motel. Cheap accomodations if you are just sleeping and leaving quickly. Seemed safe. Gas stations and quick food nearby.

Furniture was broken, fridge was broken, sink was broken, toliet was broken, and shower only had very, very hot water or very, very cold water. Building was dilapidated, dirty, and falling apart. Horrified that Expedia would even offer such a place!!

We arrived and had to phone the manager to check in. Our room has an odor of mildew. There was no toilet paper, fortunately I brought one with me. The bathroom was full of rust along the perimeter because there was no fan to remove it. The shower could not be regulated and it was either scalding or cold. Nothing says ambiance like a microwave situated between the beds. If I wanted better reviews I would start with a total update. We were unfortunately unable to find lodging on a holiday weekend but definitely would have checked out had we found one. We won't be back.

ROOM WILL NOT BE CLEANED UNTIL YOU TELL THEM TO CLEAN, OTHERWISE IT WILL STAY UNTOUCHED FOR DAYS. WATER IS STINKY AND RUSTY (BOTH COLD AND HOT WATER). CAN'T EVEN BRUSH TEETH OR TAKE SHOWER, NOT SURE HOW HEALTH DEPARTMENT INSPECTORS LET THIS SLIDE.

SHOCKING!! I have never in my life stayed at a more disgusting motel. The toilet was filthy, the tub was stained and streaked orange. The sheets were dirty. There was a hole in the chair and the curtains were hanging off on one side. The final straw that had us packing up to leave was a bug crawling near our bags. We have pictures to prove it.

The hotel itself is in a nice, quiet area. The man at the front desk was really friendly. The room itself was just ok. There was soaps but no shampoos that you usually find in other hotels. There was also no coffee pot which I thought was odd. The shower was a little hard to get to work at first as well.

One of the Worst
Place was a dump. None of the amenities listed were there. No wifi, TV didn't even work. No service. Only time we saw anyone was check in. Had to ring bell to get him. Later, when trying to get him for additional roll of toilet paper (there was only one half used roll on arrival), he didn't answer the bell. No one cleaned the room after first day.. Seems like proprietor is only one there and is just running it into the ground until he can sell the land.

Do not book this place.
If I do not receive a full refund I will be filing a credit card dispute. I did not end up staying at this disgusting motel as the room was so smoke filled and smelly that my daughter could not breathe the second we got into the room. I immediately went to the manager to say that we are not staying there and requested a refund which he declined. Utterly disgusting place.

I stayed here out of desperation so I didn't expect much. It was way worse than I expected. The room was not so clean. The shower would trickle water out of the dirty shower head and at times would randomly be burning hot. The mattresses are extremely old. The box springs and mattresses were sagging badly. You could feel every spring on the bed. Its not like this was a $70 hotel it cost $150 for this. I would have rather slept in the car. All that being said the location was convenient and the staff was really cool. They were accommodating and friendly. I think they were in room 103. 5 stars to them, I know this mess isn't their fault.

This has got to be the worst place I have ever stayed in. First of all, it is currently booking online at 67 dollars a night. You charged me 154 for a one night stay, The property was strewn with trash all over the place. The hedges outside had a dirty toilet bowl brush and dirty paper plates strewn on top. The room had a god awful smell in it. It smelt moldy. I get sick thinking about it. There was no place to hang up my clothes. I had to use the corner of the bureau to hang my clothing on. The bedding had multiple holes and rips in it. When I was checking in the manager said the water might be brown but it is ok. Huh! Then the tv didn’t work so I had get the manager. He blame the people that stay there for breaking everything.There was no ice maker or common area where it’s listed to be. There was no coffee maker in the room although it’s listed. Only one night lamp worked. The other one didn’t have a socket to plug into. The fridge in the room had dirt all around the rubber seals. It wasn’t plugged in although there was a socket . You can’t make this stuff up. The only good thing was it did have heat. Beside that, there is nothing nice about this entire motel. You should not be listing dirty dirty places like for your clients and then charge them double the current booking price being charged online. I honestly feel that I was deceived by your advertisement of this place and you need to make this right.

Very old but nice front desk
Very nice man at front desk. It’s a very old place but just off 195 which made it convenient. The bed was a soft one. We couldn’t make shower work in the morning, and was going to let them know but couldn’t get hold of anyone. We were in a hurry so didn’t have a shower. The best thing he did was gave us a recommendation for dinner and it was spit on! It was the Mystic Pizza 3 miles up the road, don’t be put off by the name. It was a fantastic very reasonably priced Italian restaurant.
