1 big roach was crawling around. Tub wasnt cleaned you could see the dirt ring. Comet im assuming is used to clean since there was a pile of it dried on the sink counter. No tissues, 1 roll of toliet paper. Old school ac unit atleast back from 2008 lol some dated it. Lights very dim and 1 went completely out. Tv didnt have many channels and was set in energy saver and u couldnt charge ot so it was dark and low for the volume. Chair in the room was so dirty and the cushion was flat and falling through the chair. Dont sweep well. No coffee maker, no hair dryer, no ice bucket. It was ran down and very little but ir u r in need of a place in a pinch it's an option

Worst motel hotel in the world

The first room he gave us. There were no sheets on the bed. There was garbage in the room and it smelt like smoke when I said a non-smoking room. It was so disgusting. The second room was very dirty looking the comforters were disgusting. The shower was very difficult to turn on and then I couldn’t even get it to turn all the way off.

The room smelled of cigarettes and I found cigarette butts at several locations in the room. It was dirty and dusty in the room. I barely slept through the night, counting the hours until I left. It was such a shame! Y’all can do better.

Worst lodging experience in my lifetime of nearly 63 years. No need to go into all the details- the place needs to be condemned. I learned from it- should have slept in my car and went a rest stop in the morning to freshen up. I stayed only for the reason to take a shower- no hot(or warm) water to shower with in the morning. Again, was my worst lodging experience ever. I don’t recommend staying there!
Smoke detector- not sure how they pass inspection. A  tragedy(and probable lawsuit waiting to happen).

The first room they gave me was smelly and had flying bugs/ants on the floor. The 2nd room was dirty! Soiled wall and toilet. Not buttons on the AC unit and it was 90 degrees outside! I wish I could upload pictures and videos.

I liked the fact that you can check in like a drive thru and that the hotel was around several restaurants and stores. The hotel needs a serious upgrade! The furniture was old and had finger nail polish on it. Someone wrote on the walls. The side panels were coming off and there was hair on the towels and shower curtain. The shower curtain was also very dirty. People were barbecuing at midnight in front of the hotel. I would say never again!
