I do not recommend this hotel.
Cons:

I booked and prepaid two rooms through Booking.com for a total of USD 162.56. Upon arrival, the hotel charged an additional USD 50 security deposit for each room, for a total of USD 100.

More than a month after our stay, neither deposit has been refunded. When I contacted the hotel, I was told to call and provide my credit card information, but the phone number they gave me was invalid or disconnected.

Unforgettable for all the wring
Pros:

Absolutely nothing.

Cons:

Extremely poorly maintained, dirty EVERYTHING, (flooring, bathtub, towels/wash clothes/floor towel. Bed lacked any support/sunk into the bed; I chose not to sleep under the sheets/covers out of fear, the stench of the room smelled of a heavy smoker had lived there for decades/since motel was first built. A/C floor unit was functioned, but dirty, without a filter, and appeared to be a fire hazard the way wired. Door lock was flimsy and without a second locking system (door chain) that i barricaded the door from the inside before going to sleep and left the tv on. If I had to describe my room and this property in one word, the word that comes to mind is Crackhouse with people meandering outside who could pass as meth heads (I believe this property has tenants who are longterm residents, not your daily travelers. I made the mistake of believing the 6.6 rating with the word “Pleasant” on the booking.com website to describe this property when booking and the 7.5 rating on another website.
