Staff were quick and friendly. Location wasn’t bad at all. Room was clean for the most part .. it was little things like a few pieces of hair and dust on the tub that made me to believe it wasn’t clean (I cleaned it myself with the supplies I had in my trunk due to my child needing to shower and sleep for a early morning) and a lot of dust and trash behind the towel holder. Other than that the room was fine and you get what you pay for honestly. If I ever had another emergency/ last min stay I would book again if I had to.

The staff was great. Our biggest complaint was there was not a refrigerator, but we knew that going in. The odd thing was there was not hairdryer! The bed was comfortable, the air conditioner was amazing, the pool and area was clean.

We just needed the room to sleep & shower so we weren't expecting it to be perfect, however, there was not hot water, bright lights right outside the room that shine in the room all night. The curtains didn’t keep the brightness out. Stains on the mattress cover that showed through the white sheets. The mattress was like sleeping on springs. No type of cushion. Lastly, it looked like mold or layers of dirt & grime on the ac unit in the room.

The room had an overwhelming smell of bleach. There was one pillow and no blanket, only sheets. No toilet paper and no remote for the tv. Could not even connect with their wi-fi network. Asked for a different room but the rude “manager” said since I had been there for 5 minutes already (calling them about the missing toilet paper and remote) that I was not going to be moved. I left after that.

Great location. It's very old and not kept renovated very well. It did its job. Good a/c and a hot shower. The parking lot was well lit. This was important to me because I was hauling a trailer.

Outside building and yard could be spruced up, people fixing vehicles in parking lot. Dead roaches in light fixtures. Fairly quiet though considering it was on the access road.

mediocre motel

there needs to be significant renovations to the outside and some in the room itself. the beds were paper thin and very uncomfortable. we did not get clean towels for our 2nd night. overall, it's a motel 6 so we didn't expect much.
