No frills cheap motel

The motel is very basic and run down. However; it is clean, cheap, and the ac works great. If you need a one night stay before flying, it's worth staying there. It's a no frills bed, ac, and shower very close to the airport. We will stay there again.

Really, it's an adequate place to stay if cost is a factor. It was cheaper than the La Quinta next door, but not by much, and I wish I'd gone to the other because I was hosting my nieces. If it was just myself, the cost would have been the main factor and the inconveniences wouldn't have mattered. The place came across as a bit shabby. Clean, but shabby.

Never checked in. Felt very uncomfortable and thought the best thing for me to do was to find another place to stay. I would appreciate a refund.

Was very clean for the price. I did not like the fact that we were charged an additional deposit once we got to check in. We checked in around 2 AM and were only in the room for less than 6 hours. Just long enough to sleep.

Do not book a room here!! What you see in online photos , is not what you are getting. This property is disgusting. Would have stayed somewhere else, but all rooms in the area were booked due to a couple of big events. Check in was a hassle. The front desk employee was rude. This room was booked and paid, 6 months in advance. Upon arrival, I was told that my credit card was declined. My card is valid and should not have been declined. The only way I could check in was to pay again! The room I booked was a king with microwave and refrigerator. At that time I was told that all they had was a double. After asking why my room was not available, they found one. I get to the room and was appalled at the condition, and there was no refrigerator or microwave. I went back up and was given another room which was actually located in a more convenient spot. But the horrible condition continued. The rom was painted a dark grey and there are no lights except for an LED strip located by the window which does not illuminate even half of the room. The floor was dirty, the "chair" in the room was stained and old. The bedding has burn holes throughout. The curtain did not cover the entire window and had holes in it, and was duct-taped to the wall on the side! The sink was dirty with old toothpaste, trash can looked as if someone threw up in it and it was not cleaned. Shower had left over soap packets from the previous occupant and the shower rod was falling off and the curtain was moldy.

We didn't like anything about the property, dirty inside and outside. Area outside pool and all around had high grass that needed to be cut badly. Sidewalks were filthy and saw a hypodermic needle lying outside our door. Stay was for 4 nights but we left after only 2. Would never, ever stay there again. Commodes lid fell off, bathtub was filthy. Bed had no bed spread and a top sheet was used for bottom sheet. Could see mattress cover on the sides and it was nasty. Don't think we have ever stayed in a place like that.

The front desk people we're rude. The room was listed as jon smoking however the bedding had burn marks in them. Roach bugs in the freezer in the room. No phones in the rooms. I wouldn't let my dog stay there. I do have pictures . We stayed because it was late and had no other options . We thought it would be ok because it was across from the airport. I would have blocked the payment if I had thought about it soon enough. That's how bad it was!!!
