I had a very bad experience at this hotel. It is not a safe place, there was a lot of noise coming from other rooms, and the facilities were not very clean. On top of that, I was charged for two nights even though I only stayed one night and checked out at the indicated time. The service was very poor, and the staff was not helpful at all. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone — it is by far the worst place I have ever stayed.

Title: Filthy, unsafe, and poor service – left after 10 minutes I checked in and immediately decided to check out within roughly 10 minutes due to severe cleanliness and safety concerns. The room was dirty, with mold and insects in the sinks and shower/tub. Swastika emblems were visible at the front desk, creating a hostile environment. The owner and staff were rude and unhelpful when I reported these issues. Overall, the property did not meet basic hotel standards. I’m seeking a refund and would caution others from staying here.

There was a swastika or possibly a manji on the office door, painted in what looked like red paint. The place looked pretty rough, and no one was in the office, so I did not open the door or try to check in. I went to another hotel. Out of curiosity, I went back and checked the office door for the next two days, and the symbol was still there. I pre-paid, so I reached out to Expedia for a refund. I have photos, but I am not sure how to post them.

The motel that looks like a abandoned building..

This was the worst motel I ever seen I couldn’t believe how dirty and disgusting this room was it should be closed down.. The top blanket was filthy the white sheets had mold on it and stains. The room was dirty. The walls were dirty. The ceiling was dirty. You would get sick if you stay the night in this place. I ran out of this motel less than five minutes of seeing the room.. (real talk)
The lamp didn’t work I guess it was to filthy
Mold on the bedsheets, this can kill you
Just a dirty bed
Stains sheets was never cleaned for anybody

DO NOT GO HERE

it was horrible… i’m a 21 year old kid i don’t need things to be super clean and nice, but this place resembles a crack house/motel. From stained sheets and stained chairs to a smear of bloody boogers on the wall. Along with the carpet being sticky and bathroom being rusted out. Looked like it had not been cleaned by any means. (locals had warned me of bed bugs, and i ended up sleeping in my car) The staff is rude and incompetent, they told me that it was “impossible” that i made a booking online when i showed up for check in. I drove 7 hours to get there and then try to tell me that i didn’t have a room even though my card had already been charged. Save yourself the time and don’t go here.

I didn’t even end up sleeping here the room was so dirty. The bathroom sink had soap scum and toothpaste spittle from a previous person all over it. The towels were covered in black hair, and there were PUBES on the toilet seat. There was also someone’s old used soap bottle inside the shower. I literally turned around and got a hotel somewhere else. This place was gross.

It was fine. Gopal at check in was very nice and excited we were there. It is definitely dated and creaky but clean enough and decent for the price.
