Daniel, 1-night trip
Verified Expedia guest review

8/10 Very good

It was pouring rain when I got in, and the person at the front desk gave me a key to the unit I'd parked in front of. The air conditioning was out due to the weather, which he informed me of and let me decide if I wanted to find a new hotel. The room was clean, though there weren't very many outlets, and the only one near the bed was too loose and nothing would stay plugged in...

Room was in minimal repair. One electrical socket for room being used by fridge and microwave. One room light in ceiling. You get what you pay for.

Sept. 22-23
Room 10. The room had a strong, musty smell. Sink faucets were not firmly in place. Hair in the tub. One electrical socket near door did not work.

Okay, but not the greatest. Nostalgic mostly. Okay
Older motel, was nice at one time. Mattresses were hard and cheap but new I guess. Was clean. No towels or other amenities. Had to ask. Next to busy train tracks. Sink faucets dripped 2 levels, dripping or full blast. Price was good.

Trying to stay positive
Disappointing but cheap and clean. A/ C super noisy but worked. Fridge had no working cord to plug in. No ice machine available. Remote for tv did not work. Clerk insisted I pay cash instead of card. Checked in just before 5 pm. Left at 3 am the next morning due to overall experience (disappointing). I liked the bed. It was comfy! My dog did not seem to mind the negatives!

Hard beds, harder pillows, a/c not working, people fighting with owner in the parking lot all night. Never let yourself be unfortunate enough to stay here.

3 queen beds
It was ok. Beds and pillows were very hard. It had 3 queen beds, perfect for my family. Very outdated but can't really complain for the price

Very basic but safe and cheap
This motel is vintage. Clean, mostly functional (one light fixture in my room was broken), safe, cheap place to sleep. Mattress was lumpy but I slept just fine. If you expect more pick another spot.

Had reservations and when we got there asked to see room and he refused. A real mess. Asked to cancel reservation and he refused. We did not stay there. Filthy run down mess.
