Didn’t enjoy it a bit
I was hardly even greater upon arrival. It felt like I was forcing them to take my money. I have to be back in town this weekend and although location was perfect. You’d have to give me a free room to go back

Cold morning, cold showers
Front desk is nice. If they put you in the far building, make plans to shower elsewhere.

Rough night… very little rest…
Well…. It is a cheap motel… we kinda didn’t have high expectations when we drove up. The property itself looks extremely 👎. But when we actually went in the room. It was surprisingly clean and smelled of either bleach or some other cleaning products. We didn’t shower as it looked to have like rust stains all along the tub edge… basically it was a place to lay down our head for the night to continue or trip further south. The bed was awful for my preference. Literally hard as a rock, pillows dissappeared as soon as your head layed upon it.

Filthy bathroom
Our bathroom was dirty. The bathtub wasn't cleaned. There was dried fesus between the floor and the wall. We didn't even take a shower because it was disgusting. I have never given a bad review but this warrants one. I was supposed to get a 10% discount, which wasn't enough, but I never received it.

AC wasn't working, in fact as soon as we turned it on there was a burnt smell and the fire alarm went on for a few seconds, but the fan function was enough for us
