This place is disguising and highly do not suggest staying here. Worst hotel stay ever.
Pros:

Nothing at all.

Cons:

They must have a special detailed room that they take pictures of. There was black mold in the bathtub, the bedding was dingy, the room smelled musty and moldy, the mini fridge was dirty, found someone else’s underwear behind the microwave, the building appears to be falling in, the doors do not close correctly, there was a knocking noise in the wall all night by the sink outside the bathroom…. When I said something to the staff, they didn’t care. Stay away

So 🥵
Pros:

Within walking distance of restaurants and stores

Cons:

The bed has a spring that hits right in the middle of your back and my air conditioner didn't work from the first night I checked in and the hotel was not fully booked they could have moved me but instead they only gave me a fan

Pros:

Its cheap

Cons:

First, it says it has a waterpark/pool but when i called they didn't ven say it is not working. The front desk ask me to sign a bill under a different name, had to recheck it twice befpre I signed the bill. The rooms smell like cigarette with cigarette burns on the beddings, TV is not wprking properly, shower is not working properly, and foxtures are rusty. Hallways are dark and smell like "pot".

Mildew Nightmare
Pros:

The price was reasonable, but had I know the condition of the rooms, I would have passed on this motel.

Cons:

The entire room reeked of mildew. You could see the water damage on the ceiling inside. When I told the "manager" their response was, "oh okay." Skip this motel if at all possible.

Cons:

I was charged $14 too much when I had alreadyl spoken to the front desk about the charge. I emailed support and never heard anything back. I am a loyal Choice member with Platinum status and don't know why I bother.
