A scary and disheartening experience.
Cons:

A man shouted homophobic slurs and threatened sexual violence outside one of our rooms in the middle of the night. When we tried to get a refund for our next scheduled night, booking just sent me $11.

Low price and acceptable
Pros:

The motel was OK for a budget option, about 1/3 of the cost of the Hotel I would have preferred, so in that respect, it was OK.

Cons:

It was older, my TV didn't work

Don’t ever consider this location to stay, it’s horrible.
Pros:

There was nothing positive to say about this facility. I’ve stayed in thousands of motel rooms traveling 5 nights a week over 15 years, this was the worst.

Cons:

It was rundown, dirty, offered nothing of any value. Clientele looked like they rented by the hour
