"The room was pretty standard for a hotel room. The location was terrific with quick access to simple shopping, fast food, and the highway.I'm attentive to detail and did notice that there were a few things that hinted at less than 4 star facility maintenance, but the room was nice.The facility HOWEVER, gets just 2 stars and that's only because it would have to be a dive to get just 1 star and it clearly wasn't that.They advertise a continental breakfast, but compared to the competition, that's an overstatement.The facility also is supposed to have a pool, BUT it's "Out of Order". Actually, it's dry and the entire pool deck has been used as a junk room to store excess stuff.Their self service ice machine is also "Out of Order", so you have to get that at the front desk. Whoops, good luck wanting your ice bucket filled at the same time someone is actually at the counter. They seem to be a little understaffed.The staff were courteous and helpful, but I got the sense that there was a recent change of ownership and funding might be a little tight to accomplish all that they might desire."

"People were dealing/smoking drugs outside or just sitting in their cars. Also I had to put out a cigarette but fire outside the hotel. When trying to find water to put out said fire all ice machines and water fountains were not functioning. Otherwise it was clean, great front desk service and awesome location."

"The location was fine - nearby drugstore and many places to eat. The property was dirty (smelled) and had roaches and old cheap furniture. The room had a weird layout, including sinks in both 'bedrooms' and a desk in front of an adjoining room door. My senior citizen roommate and I had concerns for our health while staying in the room. The roaches were so prolific that we only lasted one night, even though we had reserved 4. In the lobby, there is a tall poster advertising the hotel that has the same room pictures from the VRBO listing. I was expecting that room but got the worse one that I've described. The tables and chairs in the listing pictures are in the actual lobby, and that is the most modern part of the place and the only thing matching the listing. At one point, while I was in the parking lot near my car, a man exited the motel and proceeded to share with me that he was a trucker that brought a professional to the location the night before and she robbed him. This actually happened and is what inspired the title. It was a creepy experience that further demoted my opinion of the property. This is the first bad experience that I've had with VRBO, which is (was) one of my top places to search for accommodations. The fact that this property is listed on VRBO has also lowered my opinion of VRBO. I noticed when making the reservation that there has been a merger with other accommodation booking services. IMO, this lowers VRBO quality. "
