Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Multiple reviews report severe cleanliness issues (fecal matter on toilet, brown stains on sheets, hair and 'brown stuff' in bathtub, bugs and roaches). Overall sentiment strongly negative.
Service
10
Staff frequently described as polite, accommodating and friendly; a few isolated service failures (front desk unhelpful in a refund/room-change situation) do not outweigh the generally very positive mentions.
Location
8
Location repeatedly noted as convenient/close to interstate, downtown and family, though some reviewers said the area was not desirable and signage was poor.
Room Quality
4
Rooms described as in poor shape or extremely bad condition in several reviews (missing/broken items, poor pillows, stained sheets), though a minority found basic comfort.
Amenities
9
Positive mentions for in-room microwave, refrigerator and free Wi-Fi; property described as updated and clean inside by some. Pool was reported out of service in at least one review.
Value for Money
8.5
Several guests called it good value or adequate for a basic stay; value is reduced by the cleanliness and room-quality problems but overall perceived as a budget option with decent amenities.
Food and Beverage
5.7
Breakfast is noted as lacking or needing improvement in some reviews; little positive food/beverage feedback otherwise.
Overall Experience
7.5
Mixed overall: multiple strong negative cleanliness/room-quality reports balanced against consistently positive notes about staff, convenience and some updated/clean interiors, leading to a middling-to-slightly-positive overall impression.

Worst motel room I’ve stayed in that wasn’t in a third world country
Pros:

Convenient location and the staff were polite

Cons:

Room was dirty, with fecal matter on the side of the toilet and the building, missing a light bulb in the main lamp, the room and it’s contents were in extremely bad shape and unsuitable for use

Pros:

The location

Cons:

I arrived about 12:30am or so, the door wouldn't open so I had to get the front desk lady to help, it even got stuck for her, she had to push with all her might. She said some stuck like that. Then the bathtub had hair and brown stuff, so obviously not cleaned. The sink had a bug. So I decided to go get some food, I come back around 3ish, decided to lay it down, pulled the covers back and there was rown stains on the sheet. At this point,im exhausted and ready to go. I went to the front desk l, explained to her what happened and that I got another hotel and she says, she could have moved me. No sorry, no surprise to hear the complaints, nothing. I asked who do I talk to for a refund and she says but you've been here for 3hrs, ma'am actually I left to get food but regardless, I asked for the manager. She gives me a card amd walks away..
