This place should be condemned. Not sure how they can get away with keeping a place like this open but any place that has a hand written sign no refunds after entering the room should frighten anyone.

Keep driving don’t stop to stay here
It wasn’t even a stay. We went into the room looked around, looked at each other and decided to leave. The hallway smelled of weed, the ice machine in the hallway looked like there was mold on it. The toilet was running when we came into the room and when we put up the seat the bowl was dirty. We tried to get the water from running but nothing worked. There was water squirting out of the toilet bowl which left water all over the floor. Just those things alone turned me off from wanting to stay there. don’t think is would have been able to lay in the bed and be comfortable. Went to check out and was offered another room but felt like the rooms would probably look and feel the same. Left and kept on driving.

Clean and economical, but...
This hotel appears to be partially closed with the first floor appearing unused with some sliders into rooms open. The room was clean and the staff was pleasant. The outdoor pool was pristine and wonderful. Rooms are hard to get to; up stairs and down long hallways. Asked for an easily accessible room!

AWFUL! DEPLORABLE! UNCLEAN!
Room had not been vacuumed before my arrival; there were papers and NAIL CLIPPINGS on the floor!. Only one hanger in closet. NO washcloth. And it took several hours to get these deficiencies rectified. I have stayed here in the past and found it satisfactory. But it is woefully inadequate now. DO NOT STAY HERE!

We couldn't spend the night here because the room was so filthy. Wet and sticky surfaces, beer bottle caps lying around, dirty bathtub. Also, the room had a small balcony that connected with other rooms, and there wasn't a real lock on the balcony door. It was too dirty to stay there. The property is rundown too, with overgrown plants, abandoned restaurant, dirty lobby, and lots of vandalism in common spaces. Expedia, you should not represent this property.

it was cheap
I am 5-9 and the shower head came up to my chin. The toilet would run for 20sec, stop for 20sec all night. I think the bedspread was previously in a smoking room, aroom and moved to my nonsmoking room.

There was no coffee maker. The microwave did not work, as well as the ice machine. The mini refrigerator did not stay closed unless you put something in front of it. Tub was dirty and mold on the shower curtain.

The price was good and the sheets and towels were clean, which is what matters most. But both the interior and exterior were in bad shape. Peeling paint and overgrown grass and huge weeds outside. Wallpaper peeling off the wall in my room, dark brown ring in the toilet at the top of the water line. I won’t stay there again.

Not a non smoking room as advertised. When I went to check out at 7:30am the next morning the attendant was sound asleep on the couch in the lobby and did not check me out so I left the key cards on the desk.

Older motel OK, needs regular ground maintenance
Rooms were quiet, slept well the nights we were there. There was a very active bees nest in the building's wall right next to the entrance/exit door for our building. the grounds need upkeep, just general maintenance would help as there was trash on the ground. Rooms were dated but comfortable. While we got clean towels, the trash was not removed daily. Seems to be people living there as there were persons going in and out of the rooms sliding glass doors on the bottom floor. First thought they might be dealing drugs out of the rooms.

We had a 3 night stay. They never came to freshen up the room at all. Never removed garbage. The hallways were hot and smelled. The pool water smelled like the hallways. The toilet ran all night. The shower was for someone under 5 foot tall. I am 5'6" and had to bend over to wash my hair. The bed was sleeping on a boxspring with a mattress pad on it. Very hard. Only 3 pillows for a king size bed. The walls need to be washed. I dont normally write reviews as you get what you pay for but i didnt even get that. On the positive note the floors were clean and the sheetd were clean.
