The hotel for what it is was just fine. I kind of enjoyed the horns of the train going by in the middle of the night, really, I'm serious! Reminds me of home...if you're looking for a Hilton then go to a Hilton

The room was dark with one dim overhead bulb. There was hair in the sheets. The bathroom door would not shut and the area with the coffee pot was so dark i had to get a flashlight.

This motel was awful. You should remove it from your site. Very unsecure with hollow doors, outside handles made from interior doors and the only lock was the door handle lock. VERY RUN DOWN. Matted carpet from the 80's. Smelly. Sketcy ares. I could go on.

Non accessible but clean motel.

This is an older motel that is not accessible. I thought I was booking a park at the door room, but I found it involved three steps up to a level and another cumbersome step into the room. Room lacked bedside lights. Needed to use my extension cords. Room did have a nice large frig with freezer.
