It was horrible. I wish that I can get a refund.
Pros:

That it was close to Six Flags

Cons:

Bathroom door wasn’t closed bathroom toilet seat was loose bathroom sink did not have filter on the faucet so water is splash and flew everywhere. One of the two ceiling fans work one out of the three lamps worked. The ceiling was filthy and they left a brick in the back door, so anybody from off the streets can come in and out of the motel.

Terrible
Pros:

Room was okay.

Cons:

Pool was under maintenance. Hmm. Had i read the other reviews before booking it seems it's been under construction for a long time. The breakfast was literally cereal and milk. Had a toaster but no bread. I didn't realize I had to park in a special place. Now I might get a parking fine. They could have mentioned it. Terrible. Just terrible. False advertising

Lo barato sale caro
Pros:

Estaba cerca de six flags tenía buena ubicación todo estaba cerca restaurantes, tiendas y el parque

Cons:

El personal era amable pero ofrecieron desayuno como enganche para que la gente crea que es económica la estancia pero sirven el desayuno en un salón a las 6 de la mañana porque saben que nadie baja a esa hora eso es deshonesto y las instalaciones y los equipos también los muebles se ve viejo electrodomésticos y TV baños y todo se veía viejo

I didn't stay because it wasn't safe with vagrants in the hall, and they never gave me a refund!
Pros:

The staff member who checked us in seemed nice, in the beginning, when we checked in.

Cons:

-There was so much smoking in a non-smoking building. It was so bad that my daughter and I started to feel sick from the smoke, so we left.
-The security door was not functional & anyone could enter, even without a room key.
-There were people getting drunk, smoking drugs, & sleeping in the hallway outside my room & I didn't feel safe.

I checked out within 30 minutes of checking in, due to these things & they never gave me back my money.

also, when I booked online, it said "pet friendly" and when I got there, they said "no pets allowed"

I do NOT recommend this place!
