After having a flight delay which necessitated a 3 hour drive to catch my connection, I found myself in need of a hotel on my return trip. Arriving at midnight, I found a door that looked to have been kicked in multiple times (damaged/very badly patched latch), dirty bathroom with black grout, hair on the floor, a very cracked sink, dirty floor/spill by the nightstand, some sort of goo on the lampshade, blue stains on the sheet, various other drywall patches, the towel that was soft smelled like some horrible chemical so I went with the one that was like sandpaper instead. The bathroom door was water damaged and warped and caught on the tile. The drain in the shower was clogged. I mean, what else, I think there were other things and if it hadn't been midnight and traveling alone after an exhausting 20 hour work day, I would have turned right around and tried another hotel. It was the worst experience I have ever had. I was sure I was going to end up with bed bugs. It was the epitome of "flea bag motel". Definitely NOT like the photos and NOT worth $180. They had the nerve to charge a deposit! I feel like the customers are the ones who need to get a deposit for any medical expenses for whatever they may catch from the place!

Pictures online were nothing like the room we got. Our room looked like they assigned us to it in error. It looked like it was under renovation and being patched to paint. Floor was disgusting. Bathroom sink was pealing. Caked dirt in corners. Towels for one person although a 2 queen bed room. No tissue, no extra toilet paper. I do not recommend and would never return.

Avoid this motel

This is probably the most disgusting motel I’ve stayed at ever! Stained sheets, dirty walls, sink, floors, shower, and a barely functional tv. For $120 it was also a rip off.

This place looked nothing like the pictures on the website. The bathroom was tiny, it was dirty, and the check in person was a young man who didn't get out of his seat. The lobby and room both had a terrible smell. Do not stay here.

One of the worst hotels I've stayed at in my life.

This was #2 of 3 "worst hotels I've stayed at in my life." The pictures are completely misleading. The rooms and building were borderline dilapidated and should be torn down/condemned. There was arguing an yelling at all hours of the night (3:30 am - 4:30 am) with horns/alarms going off and police sirens nearby all night. The floor was "wavy" and the room was disgusting. The room was so gross that when I laid down to sleep I tried to minimize movement to avoid contact as best I could with my surroundings. I looked for something I could use as a weapon while I slept. I'm not kidding. When I was picked up by my Uber driver in the morning I told him how awful it was. He asked me if I had heard the prostitutes while I was sleeping. This was so bad that I will complain to Hotels.com. This should not be on their website.

disappointing

very disappointed by this property. Old and run down rooms and facilities that were very subpar. Mattress was very uncomfortable. No amenities except a tv and refrigerator and tiny microwave. Bathroom was small and sink had cracks in the basin. Door to room was too short to prevent anything from crawling in and side gaps were significant. One and done for sure!!!!
