Definitely do NOT recommend and will not stay there again
Pros:

Not a thing

Cons:

Looked like it HOUSED tenants there for permanent residents. Crack heads all around. Commode didn’t flush good so they had a plunger in room and there was dried shit on the floor behind commode. Had ear swabs under bedside table. Floor felt like it was mopped with some nasty cleaner because it felt wet all while we were there.
No wash cloths just hand and bath towels. No body soap (well a tiny tiny bar soap ) or lotions like a lot of places have.

Our overall stay was very nice, room was clean. Staff were polite.
Pros:

Space of room and atmosphere was calming. Staff was kind and polite. Night time life was nice no drama or hectic issues with other people that were at the motel.

Cons:

Hearing staff carts go past the door, was on the corner of the strip of rooms. AC felt like walking in a freezer.

Pros:

Not much to like

Cons:

Beds covered in plastic and very uncomfortable towels were dirty The floor had some kind of slippery substance The bed right next to the very loud air conditioner which made the bed moist. The shower was very slippery as well and water just kind of dropped out. Also booked a double room and it said 2 beds on booking.com but got there and it was 1 bed they said the double is one bed I showed them the booking they said that was wrong so had to pay more to get 2 beds.

I would not recommend this motel to anyone!
Pros:

N/A

Cons:

No lights in bathroom, sticky stains on one bed. There was a used soap in the shower. Bath mat stained. Got in late was too tired to ask to be moved to another room. I spoke to a person in the front desk when I checked out. I told them about the issues. She just said ok. No apologies.
