It was absolutely horrible. There was a Crack head rocking back and forth, chewing his face off by the office door. When I got in the room it was filthy. There was mo shower head, which was probably for the beat because I probably would have gotten a staph infection from standing in the tub.

We booked on Expedia and when we arrived at the property the office was lock up tighter than Dicks hat band and couldn’t find anyone. So we left and they still charged us for the stay!! This is actually a half way house and not a motel. It is very ridiculous to have this on Expedia when no one is around. We would like a full refund!!

There was no one there at 3:00 pm to check us in. We arrived at 2:45 and was told it would be an hour and a half before check in. He told me to apply for a refund and there would be no problem.
Now I've been told by someone else that we were there before 3, so tough luck and no refunds. This is a terrible place, Dumpy and there were only construction workers staying there. I tried to give business to an older property with local owners, NEVER AGAIN. This place steals your money.

Night of terror

The first room that I was given was so filthy. There was dirt all over the floor there. Bath bathtub was horrible the toilet had dried poop in it. And when I lifted the sheet I found, there was dog hairs all over the sheet. When I asked for a refund, I couldn't get one because I had booked through home.com. expedia And they would not give
me my money back. So the manager put me in another room for that night since it was very late and i walked away from the rest of my reservation to stay where it was clean and safe. *shivers*

Rude staff that barely understands English, so poorly you're met with blank stares when you ask questions because they don't understand you. Room smelled mouldy and musty, badly enough we had to buy air freshener to tolerate the room. Room was dirty, with sticky stuff on the floor, nasty stains on the sheets and all over the bathroom. Smoke alarm had no battery. Unknown stuff smeared on the walls. Numerous people who \"live\" at the motel appeared to be on illicit substances and we're screaming at each other and behaving violently multiple times during our stay. Water from tap had strange metal flakes in it, and any time you turned on the tap in the bath it ran red with rust. Seriously dissatisfied with this place, especially for the price they gouged us for because of the eclipse....

No Way in Heck!

First time I have ever been compelled to give a review. Found this place had vacancy in the path of totality of the recent eclipse so cancelled reservations a hundred miles away and thought we'd give this little gem a try for the convenience of the location alone, HUGE mistake! Upon check in received our key card and arrived at our room. The card did not work so returned to the office and had the card reworked. Again, the lock did not work so another trip back to the office, this time with the full time resident in the neighbor room who says \"this happens all the time\". The office attendant this time comes to the room with the master key and proceeds to attempt to change the batteries in the lock but this still does not fix the problem. The gentleman then begins to leave and I ask \"is it fixed\"? He smiles, says \"No\" but I guess since he got us in the room and thinks were there for the night we can just lock the door behind us and we are in. He leaves and all the while I'm thinking he's going to return to properly fix the lock. We enter the room and immediately my wife is like, \"there is no way we are staying here\". There is a smell of old cigarettes mixed with lord knows what else the permeates the place. Stains on the beds, lap shades, and carpets that go beyond description. \"Dump\" doesn't even begin to describe this room. We got our money back and camped out in the car overnight at a local truck stop. That is how bad this place is.

When we arrived, the heater was on and the room was about 90 degrees; it took all night for it to cool off. There was no ice bucket or drinking glasses, the the shower was like something you would use to power wash a horse, plus cold water sprayed from the cold water handle. The overall condition of the motel had deteriorated and there was essentially no breakfast, hot or otherwise.

This is an old school motor hotel-a bunch of one story units with doors opening on the parking lot. Obviously built in the 50s or 60s there's been some effort to update but the basic walls, floors and ceilings are unchanged. This means thin walls with lots of street noise, interior doors between rooms that don't isolate well, plumbing noises from next door, cigarette odors wafting in from the folks outside...

The room was clean, beds were comfortable, and with a high quality white noise machine I was able to sleep well. For what it is it's a decent place to stay, and the price is right, but it really needs updating to stay competitive in this world!
