The place was absolutely filthy. No keys to the room. Master key only. I was told I would have to contact the front desk to go in and out my room. The room was dirty. The mattress was terrible. There was only one towel. The place needs to be burned down. False advertising. The place is pathetic. I want a refund.

Awesome for when I needed a motel on short notice and it was cheap so I appreciate that a lot. Dirty but a few towels were clean, unopened cups, and hand soap. TV, microwave, fridge, hot water, and cozy beds. Better than I expected!

Lacking towels

The man at the front desk was about as professional as they come. He was ready for me when I walked in the door. Quick and clean. The only issue I had was there weren't any towels or wash clothes in the room.
