Homeless person with 6 garbage bags of stuff out side the room when we went to check in. Door looked like it was kicked in, deadbolt and chain both were broken, had to push very hard to close it, hair in bathroom tub and sink, burn marks all over the toilet, no soup or toilet paper in the room, giant bubble of something in the corner ceiling of the room that looked like it would bust at any moment. Would have left but it was so late so I jammed the dresser against the door and tried to sleep, only positive was the bed were comfortable.

You get what you pay for, which is why I rate the property generally average. I was there for the eclipse, so only needed a place to shave, s..., shower, & sleep - so didn't need much. The room was clean, other than the "tacky" floor. At least someone wearing shoes wouldn't be able to sneak up on me! I solved the issue by walking around in my socks. I wondered if a bug bomb had been set off and never cleaned up? Could also explain the mysterious chemical / industrial cleanser smell that hit me when I walked into the room... The shower valve was a mystery. It would spin around and around. I cracked the code - turn right to the coldest setting (according to the expanding blue indicator line) and leave running for a few minutes. Turn back to straight up and it's sort of off! Once you discover that luxurious temperature setting, it's best if you're a small woman or child. I'm 5'10" and could have engulfed the shower head in my mouth if I needed a refreshingly tepid drink. On a sad note, it's difficult to clean your feet when wearing socks... The toilet works fine, but when flushed will startle you into thinking you just provoked a hissing pit viper, but the expected spray of toilet water never manifests so you won't confuse the toilet with a bidet. As far as the good, no news is good news! All in all, it had a nice beat and I could dance to it, so I'll give it a 3.5 (on an unidentified scale). NOTE: I only stayed in ONE room. I cannot provide comment on the other 79...

When you walk in the door, a human trafficking sign greets you. That pretty much sets the tone for the stay. It felt unsafe enough that my partner and I brought in all of the items from our vehicle and regularly checked on it throughout the night. It was the most unsafe I’ve ever felt in paid accommodation. Beyond how unsafe it was: the TV didn’t work and it was so unclean we didn’t shower out of fear of catching something unsightly and we slept in full clothing. Absolutely spend the extra money and do not stay here.

Human trafficking signs are required by law and we understand your apprehensions in looking at the sign but it does not automatically translate into motel being unsafe.

Check-in office smelled terribly of cigarette smoke and room smelled just as badly of cigarette smoke in spite of being billed as a nonsmoking facility. My wife has allergies and was unable to tolerate the smell. It even transferred to our clothes and we were only in the room for less than 5 minutes. We immediately returned the key card and found another hotel to stay. Should have known what to expect for only $61 per night.

It was nice and clean. The doors to the stairwell slam hard, probably to make sure they are shut, that is understandable. The one next to my room had an issue with its built in door stop. That could use a repair, but other than that, I'd use that place again if need be.

This property smelled horrible. The heat/AC UNIT filters moldy. Had to sleep in cold. 1st room unit didnt even work. Left an item in room when i checked out. Called later in day and was told they had it and would check with post office to return. 5 days later no call. Worst hotel experience ever.
