Pros:

I just needed a place with a shower and bed and it was fine. The area has a bunch of fast food options, convenience and a dispensary near the motel. Could have been better, could have been worse.

Pros:

Property was difficult to find the proper entrance to. The room was mostly clean upon first glance, but had traces of roaches near the bed. Owner told me I needed to give him a $20 cash security deposit when I tried to check in, and that I’d get it back when I checked out. I never got the $20 back.

Pros:

The property was advertised as having 2 queen beds. It did not. The beds were small doubles at best, despite the insistence of the front desk clerk that they were queens. When we disputed this, he became rude and belligerent.
