I basically just slept there didn't even use the shower was sick with a copd attack and just needed
Cons:

I payed with pay pal and the man had me pay another $55.00 dollars and said that was a security deposit in case I stole wrecked the room.I basically slept up there.That was it , I was sick , I went in washu and went to bed. He said that if nothing was wrong with the rule I would get my $55 back. Well, fortunately, I did not, so I paid 64, something with PayPal. And then another $55, the room was not worth a 110 would have been if the man wouldn't have lied to me

The rooms were good , clean and reasonable. If you are looking for 3 to 5 star motel this is not it.
Pros:

There was no breakfast. I have stayed there the last few years, nothing fancy, just a clean place to sleep. The breakfast room was under repair, did have coffee.

Cons:

Breakfast, I wasn't there to judge.

I would not stay there again unless I could see the room first.
Cons:

Black mold in the bathroom. Bedroom area was very nice and the bed was comfortable. I would have given the place a good rating if it wasn’t for the mold on the woodwork going into the bathroom, the bathroom door at the bottom and around the toilet. Need to remodel that portion of room 115. Room smelled of mold.

Ok but not great
Pros:

Room was stuffy smelling when arrived. Got better the ac running. Needs update to bath. Comfy bed. Rather noisy with highway right outside door. Breakfast was ok but not excellent as described by other guests. Very little choices.

Unsatisfied
Pros:

The bed was nice.

Cons:

I prepaid ($70.17) The next morning 2 hrs after we checked out I looked at my bank statement they had charged us (besides the $70.17) another $75 & $50 fee. I called; he said the 50 was a service fee, he kept the 75 as the payment of the room which he shouldn't have done cause the total payment when I prepaid was $70.17. 2 days later I was reimbursed the 70.17, so he made $5. Will not stay there again. I understand maybe a small charge for damage fee but it makes it hard financially when they double charge and all these fees come out while you're on vacation, makes it hard to enjoy the trip when funds are coming out of your checking 1 1/2 times the room amount. Now I understand why we didn't get a receipt. Emily Filsinger

Pros:

You get what you pay for. Our sink wouldn't drain. It was backed up upon arrival. The pipes in the wall sounded like we were about to take lift off when turning on the water and taking a shower. They kept $10 of my deposit when
