Summary: I wouldn't be so disappointed in how rundown, unclean, and overall disgusting this place was if it was a $60 a night motel. But for the $190 they charged for one night, the peeling paint, moldy bathroom, blood-stained sheets and lack of a real blanket or refrigerator is totally unacceptable.
Maybe they keep the prices up to discourage junkies who have clearly spent a lot of trashing the place, but either way I wouldn't stay here again and I wouldn't recommend that you do either. At least not at this price range.

Summary: The rooms were not up-to-date. It had a smell in the room of mildew. I was looking for bedbugs because that’s what it looked like it was gonna have it did not thank God. For the area that they are in it should be more up-to-date. There was holes in the wall. Everything was outdated ripped off the walls. Just not a good time for the price that they asking for.

Summary: When I arrived I was brought to a room in the back of the property facing an empty lot. The room was beyond Spartan and I actually felt unsafe. The A/C unit sounded like it would shake apart at any second. When I asked for an upgrade I was brought to a "king" suite behind the front desk. The next morning I went to take a shower and stepped in a puddle on the bathroom floor created by a leak INSIDE a ceiling light fixture. Again I asked to be moved. I was then moved to the room next door, where the first thing I noticed was a HUGE swatch of ceiling paint hanging down over the bathroom sink. When I commented about that the staff member just shrugged. The only benefit to this whole debacle was that I saved almost a hundred dollars by being jerked around so much. I would NEVER stay at this property again.

Summary: This Motel provides an adequate bedroom and bathroom, but it does not compare with more modern motels and how they appear in today’s market

Summary: The room was quiet and comfortable, making it a pleasant place to stay. I would have preferred a shower with a glass enclosure rather than a shower curtain. The receptionist was attentive, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. The staff were friendly, professional, and attentive throughout my stay.
