Room was clean and staff was very nice. There was cereal, coffee/juice, and some muffins/yogurt by the front desk. Just be careful booking your room. I accidently booked a smoking room, and it smelled very strong of cigarettes'.

Requested smoke free room and was placed in one that was penetrated with the smoking smell. The chair was stained. Aside from the smoking stench and the stained old chair, the room was clean. The tub, shower and toilet were very clean.

It is a Budget motel not in the greatest area. The rooms for the most part were clean though questionable. Parking was not an issue whatsoever, for the area it was in I am not surprised by anything but probably wouldn't stay there again.

Monica

Disliked: Staff & service
The man at the front desk is extremely rude. Makes assumptions off race and gender that you will be having “ guest over “ makes threats of charging your card if they suspect “ guest “. Room was smelly like smoke even with a non smoking policy. Floor was dirty, baseboards had not been wiped in years. There was black mold in the shower and a mysterious blood looking spot on the wall. The area was less than appropriate for a family hotel. Adult workers strolling the street and the parking lot sounded like a car show on multiple occasions.

The room was decent but on the second night, my neighbor was very loud and we could hardly sleep. The walls are thin and if there's a brawl, you are definitely not sleeping
