Not Good.
The toilet was broken the whole weekend. The woman who fixed it for us was very kind and did her best but I don't beleive she was a plumber. When I asked about receiving a discount for the inconveinance, the office told me because of the low price I got from Hotels.com, they were very hesitant to do it & they blamed it also on being understaffed. Which is no fault of mine. In the end, I received a credit for $22.10.

Eh
Hotel is badly in need of updates. Bathroom fixtures were barely holding on. Floor didn't look like it had been cleaned in years. Big gaps between the air conditioner and the area of the wall it sat in, so traffic noise was louder than expected. On a good note, beds were pretty comfy.

Let’s go with no
If you’re looking for the “old school” Motel vibe, this would be it. Loud noises from outside, around, and even inside the rooms. The blinds were missing pieces, so anyone could look inside the room. Plus, the mattress were dirty/stained. Allergies galore if you’re sensitive. We were looking for budget friendly, but for what we paid you’re getting 1 star quality.
