The one good thing about this place was that the bedsheets were clean. Everything else was filthy. The shower drain was clogged with hair and there were cockroaches in the bathroom. Two of the walls of the bathroom were also rotten through; you could see the insulation. I tried not to touch anything except the desk and the bed. The lamp was also broken, but that can be replaced. Would not recommend this place.

This motel has soooo much potential. It’s a shame it’s not better cared for. Just generally dirty, old sheets and towels, poorly maintained overall. Bugs on the floor, garbage on the ground behind furniture. But it was cheap. Again, if the owners took the time to really care for the motel, it would be a total gem.

Soap packets thrown on the back of the toilet, REALLY hard mattresses, creepy textured blankets and pillows, ancient box springs. The whole room kind of felt like a prison cell. If you have the means, stay ANYWHERE else. It's sufficient shelter tho, if you don't have a choice.

At least the shower was hot and the bed was comfortable. No bugs. Just a bit tired and rundown. Price was worth the value.

Had to buy a tarp and fitted sheet to cover the tarp to sleep on the bed that was upside down to due to the nasty stains all over. There were bugs all over floor along with sticky stains. The bathroom door was falling apart due to rot. This was just the surface, I’d never say here again.
