Staff at check-in was great. The room was clean and smelled fresh. The toilet seat didn’t fit the toilet and handle to flush was broken. There was an outdoor window in the bathroom with a piece of wood for “security”. The location of the motel says “airport”. We arrived late at about 10:30 and many unsavory characters were outside on phones, taking loudly, drinking alcohol. While my husband took our dogs out to pee, he saw prostitutes enter the premises. Several times in the night, we were woke up by loud voices. We slept with a knife on the nightstand. Upon checkout, the police were at the front desk asking the manager about some residents of the hotel and looking at security footage, confirming our suspicions of unsavory characters. Again, hotel staff was great. Conditions of property need major work and the characters residing there are conducting criminal activities. I would advise booking elsewhere in the area.

Room was clean quiet and easily accessible. There is a functional mall down the street and many food options for all price ranges. Mostly saw working class people in and out of rooms (construction, healthcare, etc). Didn’t hear traffic or others coming in and out. Parked my car right in front of my door. Only complaint is there were no light bulbs above the bathroom sink. Great stay for a good price.

Only perk to our stay was that they were pet friendly. Grounds were covered in litter. Room was dirty & loud. Pics on Expedia are deceiving. Glad I was only there for a few hours! Never again. Blows my mind it’s even listed on Expedia.

The place is filthy. Front desk attendant is very rude.This place is filled with drug addicts. The remedy for everything is CHANGE UOUR ROOM. Broken refrigerators, broken tvs, and constant Police activity. You can't stay longer than 21 days. Residency issues and squatters.they dafinatly lie about amenities. DONT BRING YOUR FAMILY HERE!! I'm looking for a way to get refunded for a miserable stay.

Sparse feeling but clean, comfortable bed.

The room felt sparse, but it was clean. It looked and smelled newly painted. (There were a couple of paint splatters on the door and the curtains.) The bed had no bedspread or "blanket" but was made neatly and professionally with two cover sheets, which was fine, since it's very warm this time of year. The bed itself was surprisingly comfortable. There was a working air conditioner. The tub/shower in the bathroom was dated and basic, but it functioned fine. The room had some unique retro-modern elements, like a little table with a booth seat on one side,a yellow, maybe Ikea?towel holder,and 3 large mirrors! It may have been in the midst of a slow redecoration process. There was a working TV with a remote that hung kinda high for its size, with a lot of wires hanging underneath. There was a small microwave and fridge, which I didn't use, but I know the fridge was working. The guy at the check-in counter was neither pleasant or unpleasant. He was just there. To be fair, he was probably tired, because he was still there when I checked out.
