Absolute worst experience I’ve ever had at a motel. The entire place was completely unsanitary. An overpowering smell of sewage made it impossible to stay in the room.

Basic but clean.

Room was clean. Easy and fast check in. Great location and close to food and shopping. Refrigerator was nice and cold. Will stay again. Only 2 pillows for each bed. We did not ask if more were available.

I was willing to give it a chance.

I was willing to give it a chance, but the toilet hadn’t been cleaned, hair on the floor, and the stench was so bad we left at 4:45 am. Location was great and workers were friendly but overall it mad me sad

Nightmare!

Arrived directly from the airport to check in and was told my reservation was canceled without notice. The front desk clerk was quite rude and not at all helpful in any way shape or form. Horrific experience! Would never recommend or stay there.

Royce

Liked: Cleanliness
Check in was quick, the staff was friendly. The room was okay, but mainly because the bad was comfortable and I was exhausted. Otherwise, regular maintenance is clearly not done. The toilet paper holder wouldn’t hold a roll. Towel rack was barely attached and the place hasn’t been painted in decades. It was moderately clean. You get what you pay for and $35 was about the right price.

Average room. Nothing special. Beds so-so. Checkin easy but customer service definitely not over the top. Easy walk to football field
