Checked in walked down to room manager opened door the key she gave me she said it was a master key it was pretty scratched up and worn out. I left the hotel for about 30 minutes came back downpour raining key would not open door went to front desk door was locked called the number no one would answer. Finally the manager called and said she was on her way back from getting her kids from school. Went down to my room still couldn’t get in Told her I needed a new key. The one she gave me is to scratched up would not work. She finally came back to my room with another key with the best Western logo on it, thank goodness that one worked, but it was still pretty scratched up. They need to invest in new key cards. Will not be staying there again do not recommend.

The building is old and not well kept upon arrival our room wasn’t clean. Bathtub and toilet had dead bugs, beds both had stained dirty sheets. When we checked in we were told there wasn’t any towels but they would bring us some. When towels were brought I informed the young man that our room wasn’t properly clean he didn’t really seem to care but said he would tell his mom (the owner). The owner did end up cleaning our room before we returned for the night. Which was much better but I still ended up spraying Lysol on everything as it didn’t feel clean enough. The only good this was the bed was actually really comfy. And the owner did say she was sorry about our room but blamed it on her daughter. Definitely wouldn’t stay there again

I really am only able to report on the customer service for this motel. We were booked here for one night, but got a call that day that Expedia had overbooked them and I didn’t have a room. I don’t really know if this was Expedia’s or this locations fault. The lady I spoke with was very nice and put us up at the Capri motel that she said was another hotel that they run. She even mentioned that the Capri motel has better rooms than Circle S. If that is truly the case, I would steer clear of this motel. Our room at Capri was completely run down. I didn’t feel safe that the room was truly locked. The blinds on the windows didn’t fully cover, so anyone would be able to peek in. The bathroom had a window without and type of covering! I didn’t feel like I could undress! I wouldn’t have wanted to anyway because the tub was gross! We only stayed a few hours because I couldn’t even sleep I was so uncomfortable. We checked in a midnight and was gone by 5am! So, beware about booking at Circle S, you might be moved to Capri.

Adequate if you are not picky.

You get what you pay for. The exterior is not inviting but the rooms are spacious. My room was rundown but everything worked and was perfectly adequate for a one night stay. The shower was surprisingly large. When I met the manager she was friendly and gave me good advice on a tourist spot to visit that I didn’t know about.

Horrible place to stay. The shower in the first room leaked all over the floor. They tried to caulk a piece of Styrofoam tubing to the floor to keep the water in the shower, but it didn’t work. It leaked all over the bathroom floor and made it very slick. The TV didn’t work
