Cons:

The water pressure and temperature kept changing on its own. You have to quickly turn it off and turn it back on a couple of times.

It was ok.
Pros:

It’s in a good location. Everything is in distance: food, gas and shopping.

Cons:

I’m thinking the housekeepers aren’t paid that much. Because the rooms aren’t clean. Pillow case look dirty. Mirrors haven’t been wiped, behind bathroom door wasn’t swept. Also air conditioner just cooled the room. You couldn’t put cover on.

Pros:

Wasn't anything to like.

Cons:

Terrible area to stay in, homeless people living in ice machine cubby. Rooms absolutely filthy, black mold covering ceiling vanity table ECT air conditioner terrible, beds had grit in them. Changed rooms several times and each one was filthy and something didn't work or was missing. Had to ask for a shower curtain. People running the place were nice but the place needs to be shutdown!!! Highly unsanitary. Do not bring kids here!

Save your money and skip this place
Pros:

Location was easy to get to

Cons:

Room reeked of pot!! We didn’t bring our luggage in due to the fact that we didn’t want our clothes to smell. We slept in our clothes we were wearing. Sheets were stained and had burn holes in them, ended up sleeping on a towel.

I didn't pick the cheapest motel around, in hopes of y'all having better standards.
Pros:

I liked the location because it was close to my main destination and reason for going. The pool was nice. It Helped me relax after a long day.

Cons:

I didn't like the loud and obnoxious neighbor (RM 122) that kept me up until 4am in the morning, when I had to be up for 7am. They kept slamming the door. They were hollering on and off. I heard a lot of knocking and someone knocked on our door at one point. When I came out my room in the morning, I found someone's press on nails broken off on the ground by my driver door and my vehicle was covered in scratches on my driver side.
