Filthy hotel, only suitable for college frat parties. Unsafe unsavoury characters around the hotel hotel staff argumentative and unwilling to listen to any feedback. They are fine with loud partying at the motel and seem to like that better than making sure their guests are comfortable. Giant party right above our heads all three nights we stayed there. We were told that was our fault for picking a motel or that this was OK because it was the weekend. it appears the hotel rents out perhaps for this purpose to these individuals. This is not a motel for families to stay at period.
