Um.....second thoughts
Pros:

The location was good for hunting on the refugee. I came in later than the other party I was staying with, and they allowed the other party to check in prior to my arrival.

Cons:

They do not reply to emails and no one answers the phone. We didn't have a shower curtain in the room. When we spoke with the people in the office we were told we would not be held accountable for the shower curtain and we would be getting out $117 deposit back in full. We are now 6 days out and nothing has been refunded.

Absolutely uninhabitable stay in your car. It’s better!
Pros:

NOTHING GROSS!!!! The room was absolutely uninhabitable. Human bodily fluids on the comforter boogers on the light switch cockroach on the floor we did not stay. We checked in, checked out and they refused to give our money back the person running the front desk was drunk. It was absolutely intolerable.

Cons:

DO NOT USE BOOKING.Com! They do not stand behind us! We didn’t even stay the night and they would not back us up. They said that the only thing they can do is ask the hotel to refund the money which was a nonrefundable room. I can understand if my travel plans changed, but that was not the case. The roof was completely uninhabitable and they still refused. They said it’s up to the hotel to give the money back so of course they did nothing The place was uninhabitable! When we pulled up a little dog peed on our tire. When we checked in the drunk front desk person you couldn’t understand. When we open the door to the room, a cockroach ran by. When we walked inside the room, we started to notice all the filth everywhere boogers on the light switch. Then we pulled the bed apart and noticed there was bodily fluid stains all over the comforter the sheets had hair on them. It was absolutely disgusting. Then they refuse to give us our money back even though we didn’t stay we booked through booking.com. I don’t recommend that either because they do not back up their customers even though the kid on the phone when I called said that this hotel has horrible reviews that it was up to the hotel to refund our money and they just chose to ignore us and not Give us our money back even though we did not stay

Pros:

I wanted to check in and there was no one on the premises I went about three times called three different phone numbers and no response. Left voicemails and my phone number so they could call me back whenever someone was there and no call backs at all.

Pros:

Convenient, great air-conditioning, a great 1 night sleep over our room could have used some sweeping. Other then that it was comfortable. The mini fridge kept out dood and drinks cold. The manager was pleasant.

I will return
Pros:

I was at a music festival and it was hot. Looked up motel in the area. Everything in town full. 9 miles away I found this little place. Reviews were not great but I was done camping. Arrived to a newly outside painted, signed in, went to the room and it was newly painted, new flooring, new fixtures in bathroom and furniture. Air conditioner new and was great relief. Manager went out of his way to ask if everything was ok every time I returned. Review trolls be damned..get a life.
