Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was not great. The room smelled of a moldy washer. The first room I was in had dog pee in various spots on the floor. The bed may or may not have been made with fresh sheets. There was trash already in the trash can. We did request a new room second room had brown ring that was not wiped on bathroom counter. Mold starting to grow in spots on the wall and in between the cracks of the headboard. Both rooms had moldy bathroom ceilings. All around bummed about the whole experience and wish I could get my money back and I would have slept in my car. I do have photos but this won’t let me add the photos for some glitch reason.

Always good and clean, but this stay the breakfast was lacking. No orange juice, no syrup for waffles and after two tries…there was no ice!! Attendant on duty did eventually bring me an ice bucket full as we were leaving.

Breakfast was a wholesome choice although many might have wanted more. The king sized beds were definitely king sized with loads of room. The queen sized seemed a little narrower than that size, but after the king sized, we might have just felt they were smaller than billed. Doorways into bathroom would not accommodate a wheelchair but this motel is a work in process and is a good stay for the money. We will be back yet this month with the family and I am confident we will have a good stay. The one neighboring building has been refurbished and thus the neighborhood has improved from a year ago.

Meh?
The door to the room was very hard to open. Almost felt like we had to break it down to get in. And then force it shut. The rooms and halls smelled of mildew. But it wasn’t bad for us just needing a place to sleep on our drive

A non-smoking room can’t smelll like smoke. The shower drain was clogged and the tub filled with water. Overall the cleanliness of the room was less than desirable.
