Will not be staying there again.
Pros:

The staff was accommodating.

Cons:

The bed sheets were stained. The bathroom cleanliness was questionable and the location was not the greatest. I was not at easy staying there, as I was in constant worry about the safety of my vehicle in the parking lot.

Pros:

The day staff was excellent and very accommodating. But, a pool was advertised and there wasn't one, as well as any type of breakfast: there was none. The snack vending machine was broken entire time. The floors would make my feet black when walking barefoot: the cleaner did come promptly the first day of my request to clean it, but it wasn't adequate: put a few sprays and mopped. Seems this dirt has been around a long time and not adequately cleaned for a long time. Maintenance was awesome: very fast to respond for a broken fridge and very nice. Night shift front desk definitely had some attitude problems and rude. Totally different from day staff. We were there 8 nights on day 5 I asked for a cleaning but as of checking out on day 9, never happened. The laundry and outdoor staff pretty noisy before 9am carts rolling by several times and employees conversating outside the room which could be clearly heard and leaf blowing outside the rooms at 8am. Sketchy area. It was something that if had been $50 a night would have been sufficient (get what you pay for) but not at $65+ nightly. It's not a awful place to stay: pretty clean overall no bugs in the room and you can tell pride of ownership but, not the best area and not worth over $50/night in my opinion.

Would’t stay again. Not safe.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

I went to this hotel with my two children and there’s no coffee pot in the room. There is a loud machine. I don’t know what it is, but it sits up in the back corner and it’s constantly going and the worst part of it all drug deals are made in the motel parking lot.

If you just need to put your head down for a night, you will be ok here. I would be cautious about
Pros:

Good value. Great location.

Cons:

Not knowing it housed a transient population. I would not have booked two separate non-refundable weekends. The bathrooms towels were cheap and stained…gross. The room was clean enough, but there was a bug in the bathroom of room 108.
