Good location but not good enough for the price
Pros:

Right on the strip

Cons:

Toilet was messed up- kept flushing and had running water. The air condition unit would turn on and was so loud. Could hear people coming to clean with their carts early in the morning

I would have rather slept in my pickup and showered at a truck stop
Pros:

Checking out and leaving.

Cons:

The facilities are old. The shower curtain (no bathtub) was too short and water sprayed out all over the bathroom floor. The sink faucet must have been clogged up as it full on sprayed water when it was barely turned on. The wallpaper was peeling. The entry light was slightly illuminated and the room overall was very dark with the other lights on. The toilet seat was loose and barely holding on. There was no way I found to get into the main building for anything other than walking all the way down the front of the property. There was some sort of stain on the carpet and the rest of the floor (glued down planks) was wavy and either poorly installed or just poor overall. Part of the sink trim was peeled. The breakfast serving area is too small and not organized well. I guess breakfast ended at 10 versus 11 on Sunday (I must have missed that on the card they gave me). The Wi-Fi took forever to get connected and was not great. The Wi-Fi is NOT labeled "Guest" as advised when checking in, instead it is the motel (not a hotel) name and Guest was used to login after connecting along with the supplied password. Maybe a bear got into the trash container on the first floor, but more trash was there again later and took hours to clean up when "bear warnings" are everywhere and should have been cleaned up earlier.
