Disgusting, needs renovation
This was my worse motel experience ever! I would not recommend or ever stay here again! The room was disgusting, no a/c only a fan that was broken did not oscillate. This property is in dire need of renovation.

Awful
Don’t go there. You will be ripped off
I disputed a 5 days charge after being kicked out on the 2nd day and charged the full amount of 5 days plus over charges. I took pictures of the condition of the room and provided proof of 2 other bookings for the remaining of my vacation.
Dispute is still processing. I received 2 harassing phone calls from the manager after they were contacted by the credit card company
