Great for the price
It was a fine place to stay for a few weeks. Bedside reading lamps, deadbolt, and sink outside the bathroom. The wifi isn’t the greatest but I managed.

I like that they have queen size beds at an affordable rate. But their microwave and fridge needs to be cleaned and checked routinely.

Never happened before
Guess what folks! There are 2 types of toilet seats, one regular and the other elongated. Put the small size on a larger size bowl has you are partially out of kilter! And your flesh is on the cold porcelain!!!

2nd Worst hotel stay in 40 years
Every single piece of furniture in this room is broken or damaged in some way. Everything is dirty. The room smells like smoke. The metal walkway outside the room echoes like a submarine.

Affordable and clean
This was a week long trip, stayed here the first and last night. First night the employee at check in was rude. Different person the next time, was efficient but not friendly. First night I was on the second floor, the room below had a dog that barked throughout the night. Second night was quiet. Room was clean but furniture was not the best condition. Shower faucet leaked into the tub. Overall a 7 out of ten. I would recommend looking at other motels in the area.

I had higher hopes based on the photos, but I was let down in reality. Rooms were rapidly cleaned right before arrival, surfaces were very wet when we arrived. Some surfaces were not wiped at all. The property condition was very poor overall.
