Pros:

My room's air conditioner/heater was unplugged. There was a crack going across the entire ceiling. There was also cracking in the sealant around the bathtub/shower. The kleenex box was empty. There was no mini shampoo to use. The room looked clean otherwise except for the bed sheet that looked like it had a stain on it. There was no breakfast offered but they did have coffee. The staff was friendly but hard to understand at times because of language.

Pros:

I have stayed here a number of times both when it was Motel 6 and now Ameri Vu. Same management and staff.

I'm very price conscious. While it's not a fancy hotel, it's a good value for a budget stay. The hotel is quiet, has a good TV, a comfortable bed, and a hot shower. The rooms have a nice spartan decor, and include a microwave and mini fridge. Pleasant and courteous staff.

Never again and will pass on the word.
Pros:

Reserved a "king single" and got a double. The blankets on both beds had stains and burn holes and it was obvious that neither had been recently washed. The floors didnt look like they had been swept or mopped in a good while and there was a horrible sewage oder that filled the room every time the toilet was flushed.

Basic lodging
Pros:

This inn was a Motel 6 until recently. There was delay & confusion at check-in since the change occurred after my reservation was made but before my arrival. My room was a king bed on the first floor. It was still the Motel 6 setup--platform bed, laminate floor, minimal furnishings. Pillows were very firm. Fridge & microwave were good. Everything was clean and worked although the wifi was mediocre. Regardless, this is a reasonably priced place to stay, conveniently located to the interstate and various eateries.

Pros:

Owner is not interested in the traveler, only in the money that can be made - "it's just business". Will not stay here again.

Bad experience
Pros:

When we got in the room we saw a roach. Then we started getting ready for bed and noticed the towels were stained and the bed sheets were stained. We just needed a place to sleep a few hours. Then a mouse ran across the floor and into the back of an electrical outlet. We packed up and went to get a refund. It’s been a month and the charges still haven’t been reversed.

Pros:

It was adequate for the price. The beds were hard and lumpy and the wi-fi was intermittent, at best. It was clean and the staff was helpful and friendly.
