The property was a little hard to get to due to one way streets around the location. They also did not offer breakfast but did have a microwave and refrigerator in the room. The room was clean no smells no bugs.

Not recommended.

Not the worst motel that I have stayed in, but I would not be returning. My friend and I were accosted by a drunk long term resident as we were leaving our rooms. Woken at one a.m. by another guest hammering on my door claiming a medical emergency. She hammered on a number of doors. When spoken to by the manager (sworn at) she disappeared into the room next to mine, where I could hear her aguing with someone.

Stay was ok. The guy we checked in with was very nice, not sure his name. Older Motel, so it was relatively clean for what it is. The walls could use some attention. I would stay again if I needed a cheap place to stay on the south west side.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The place was very dirty. Trash and beer bottles outside. We went to the room and the first thing is the TV did not work. There was no batteries in the remote. My husband had to go get the batteries at night. We are now watching TV and there are guys outside the window sounds like they are yelling. We slept and woke up to bred up blood on the sheets. We checked my grand daughter -nothing. Checked my daughter-nothing. So then we realized that we slept on dirty bloody sheets. I go to complained to the managers and not even a sorry. Not exceptabe.
