Too bad only hotel in the area

I stayed 2 night. On the first full day I was there I came back right before lunch to find my hotel room door OPEN! I know it was closed and secure when I left a little before 9am because I pushed on the door. I had several electronic devices in the room. Housekeeping had come in and took a used hand towel by the sink and emptied one of the small trash cans in the room that had maybe 3 small pieces of garbage. And my hand towel was not replaced with another clean one and the bag was not replaced in the trash can. Either housekeeping did not close my door or it was not shut all the way and came open. Either way I was very angry. I ended up putting the Do Not Disturb sign on my door after that.

The property was adequate, although a bit run down i.e. cracked switch plates and dirty baseboards. The room was cold and couldn't stay warmed up. There were only this coverlets on both beds and no real blankets or comforters. My parents were unable to stay the second night due to the frigid conditions. We made the decision to crowd into another space for a warm, good night's sleep.

So-so

It’s a nice enough place for a motel, but the owner acts as if he’s doing you a favor by checking you in. Not at all friendly. Both times I’ve stayed here, there is a lot of outside noise late into the night. Will not return.

The front desk guy was very rude at check in and they had no restroom in the lobby. The room had a smell of must so I couldn’t stay. I left the property and got an AirBnB. So I lost the money on the stay but I really had no other option.
