The room we had was dirty. There were layers of dust and grime on the baseboards etc. The bathroom vent is filthy. The door hooks fell off the door. It really needs deep clean. Disappointing because the recent reviews were positive.

A very clean, economical motel with pleasant staff. I had reserved a queen kitchenette but ended up with just a queen regular room which was okay but I really needed a fridge with a freezer of which there was just a fridge, no freezer in it. Otherwise, a decent motel for the money.

Worst motel I have ever stayed in.

I will never stay at this motel again. the room was not properly cleaned. There was dirt and mold in the bathroom. No coffee pot in the room. And the room had a kitchenette, but no cups. In general, I will never stay at this motel again
