This is an affordable, centrally located motel that time has left behind. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the front desk person was friendly and welcoming.

Place was very dirty. Stains on the sofa bed. Grease splatters and dirty walls, all over kitchen. Hair in the bathroom and the space smelled sooooo bad. The grounds were filthy and dirty with garbage everywhere. Will never ever be back!

Opened door and saw 2 maggots wiggling around. Fan in bathroom does not work. No cover on the bathroom ceiling light. Sink was out of position. Room looked neglected in upkeep. Night table lamp light would only sometimes work. They do not have cleaning staff while you stay there. Unsafe area of town with lots of street people around. Impression that there must be new owners that want your money, but won't return the service. Why is ******* listing this motel on its site??

It was disgusting. Our stay lasted about 5 minutes. Room was riddled with black mold and mildew. Do not stay here ever. It should be condemned

The reason for two star on unit 24 was… At 3am and again around 6 am we were woken up by a loud banging. Management might want to check the hot water system for back up pressure.

I will return to this motel whenever I’m in the area. It’s a great place for the price. Clean and everything is in working condition. Bed is comfortable

We stayed at the property for two nights. We paid almost $400 (including taxes) for two night stay. The room had alive bed bugs. There were spider webs in the corners of the roof. The washroom door was getting stuck every time, as the hinges of the door were loose. Some of the light fixtures were not working. The bath tub was cracked. Towels provided were either ripped or still had some dirty spots. I went to the office to ask for new towels, I was given two towels, which were again ripped at the corners. I was told that they were running behind on the laundry. So overall, not worth the stay.

This is an older motor inn with just basic amenities but it was perfect for us.
