The unit next door had a dog with white hair. The hair was everywhere outside. We tried using the security door chain. The door trim fell off and the screws were to short to provide security.

Great place affordable

Loved that I could park in front of my door. Customer service A+ Older motel but renovated, clean and comfortable. Self check-in could not have been easier. I had a question about the Wi-Fi and sent a text message and heard back in less than a minute. Loved this place.

I haven’t seen her room this dirty and disgusting for over 40 years. This room shocked me. The mirrors , don’t get me started about the bathroom because that was obscene. If I told you what was in the bathroom on the walls they would probably take this post down avoid this place at all cost

At least it was cheep

Digital check in was easy enough. First glance the room appeared clean. The TV was mounted it a spot hard to see from the bed and couch. When we went to shower we found dirty wash clothes in the shower curtain. A quick 20 minute walk to get dinner downtown. Came back and wanted to turn the TV on the drown out highway noise, the TV and cable box were both unplugged and took nearly 20 minutes to reconnect. Our only interaction with staff was to get ice. She seemed very put out to let me into the room with the ice machine (no scoop, just a disposable plastic cup). We were only in town two nights for an event. Had it been any longer we would have looked for someplace cleaner.

Will choose another place.

The LVP floors were dirty when I checked in. The touchpad lock battery was nearly dead, making entry a multiple-effort exercise and required assistance by text to the get it unlocked the second night of my stay. I would have liked an interior deadbolt over the light-weight door chain for personal security. One of my traveling companions found evidence of drug use outside and inside of his room. On the bright side, the lady doing laundry was very congenial.
