The sheets were stained, the pillows had hair on them from a previous guest, bed creaked every move you made and the tub had rust in it. There was also water damage on the walls

I’d give this motel 2 stars. Very bare bones. Top blanket almost as thin as a sheet. Room was clean but smelled like disinfectant. Would not stay here again.
