The first ten minutes was a nightmare, so we did not stay any longer.
Pros:

There was absolutely nothing good about this motel. Trash piled high at one of the entrance doors. Hallways were filthy,our room had bed bugs, live spiders, someone's love notes on bathroom sink,long hair on the bed,the bathroom sink was leaking so bad that someone wrapped their own purple towel around the faucet like it was a big bandaid. Go to get some toilet paper to kill the spider and there was feces on the toilet paper. The night front desk man lied to us and we refuse to stay in the filthiest nastiest hotel we've ever and I mean ever stayed at. The parking lot was full of homeless people loitering on all sides of the motel. Please don't put yourself in a position to driving to this hotel. You will have nightmares for 2 days. And this is the God's honest Truth

Cons:

Watching it bring demolished would be a pleasure.

You get less than you pay for!
Pros:

Getting out of there!!

The gentleman that checked me out when I left was very pleasant.

Cons:

Immediately upon walking in, it smelled of marijuana. I was impressed that the receptionist was mopping the floor, so at least he tried.

This hotel desperately needs some TLC!!! I knew it was not a 5 star hotel based on price, but I've never had other economy hotels be this bad. I didn't take pics, but carpets were very worn, my room was missing the fridge, microwave, TV remote (which I requested my reservation be noted so I wouldn't be charged), no wash rags, no shampoo, coffee maker. The floor moulding in bathroom was hanging off wall. The water faucet had such high pressure that it splashed me & surrounding floor 3 feet out.

I was pleasantly surprised that I had hot water to shower with!
