Rooms inside far exceed the outside exterior
Pros:

The renovated rooms were so clean and updated. The beds were so comfortable. 3 double beds at a low price.

Cons:

Outside was sketchy. The outside stairs to the second level were rusty and had me concerned for my pants and shoes.

Lipstick on a pig.
Pros:

Location and staff were great. .

Cons:

Although the room furnishings were clean and updated, the walls and floors were disgustingly filthy with black mold clearly covering the bathroom vent and air conditioning vent outside similarly bad and unhealthy. Every baseboard and crevasse where floor met ceiling was black with dirt.

It fit our need while traveling
Pros:

It was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Cons:

It is very run down on the outside. Some of the furnishings were updated, but needs some more work. Also, we were traveling and found the room online. We didn’t get the motel until 10 pm. The front desk person was leaving at 11 pm. What would a person who booked online while traveling got there after 11 pm?

I love the bed and that the cable channels. They had so many options.

Cons:

The place looks run down and a little outdated but the cost to stay there makes up for it.
