Categories

Cleanliness
2
Many guests reported filthy conditions: stained/dirty sheets, dusty rooms, sticky floors, crumbs/debris, mold, spider webs and general lack of cleaning — clearly poor cleanliness.
Service
9.5
Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and helpful (easy check-in/out, assistance with internet/TV, quick reimbursement and polite front desk). One report noted no staff on site, but overall service is the strongest aspect.
Location
8.5
Multiple guests note convenience (close to work/farm), quiet setting and suitability for road trips — location is a clear positive.
Room Quality
3.5
Rooms are described as aged and in poor repair: broken toilet seat, broken tiles, windows that don’t lock, stained walls and old fixtures; positives include working AC and some comfortable beds.
Amenities
7
Amenities like microwave, refrigerator/freezer, ice machine and in-room TV/internet were available and appreciated; however, no coffee maker in rooms and advertised breakfast was repeatedly not provided.
Value for Money
5.5
Guests value low price and pet policy (accepts large dogs) and some comfort from beds, but severe cleanliness and false breakfast claims reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
2.5
Multiple guests complained that 'free breakfast' was advertised but not provided; there is an absence of reliable on-site F&B offerings.
Overall Experience
4.7
Mixed-to-negative overall: positives in staff and location and some functional amenities, but frequent cleanliness, safety and room repair issues led to several guests cutting stays short or leaving immediately.

I would never stay there again unless they do better job cleaning
Pros:

We were looking somewhere to stay reasonably inexpensive for the weekend while traveling with our large dog. They do accept large animals, that's great. I read previous reviews and knew that this motel is aged, but it had surprisingly good reviews. Bed was pretty comfortable and had surprisingly clean sheets. Front desk staff was polite and reimbursed us right away when I checked out early and canceled the rest of our stay.

Cons:

Room was filthy and dusty. I could write my name in the dust. Stains on the walls not cleaned up and I could clearly see it was a large spit or other body fluid.

Awful experience… I do not recommend staying there
Pros:

It was right off the highway

Cons:

As soon as you walked in it reeked of weed … and my eyes became itchy instantly… every entrance had a stack of tan workers boots.. loud Spanish music on the second floor…
Nobody worked there after 11 o’clock pm ..
until we checked out… tried numerous times to get another towel as they only give you two small ones.. nobody would answer the buzzer at the front desk and when I called the number listed on the wall to call if they were at the front desk…they kept hanging up after three or four rings…
I called the main number for Wyndham .. and they even tried calling and could not get a hold of anybody as well…
they gave me another number to try calling… I called it and it was the regular customer service through. Wyndham and they did not open until eight… so basically we had to leave without showers… the walls looked like the pipes were leaking behind them. Lots of water damage running down and the smell of mold… one room had caution tape across the door
