disgusting
Pros:

nothing

Cons:

basically it’s a homeless shelter. Very 🤢 roaches are everywhere. They are actually in the bed with you. I have to ask him several times for roach spray. I think the city need to come out and shut this place down is based in the homeless shelter, he let anybody hang out around the motel. I felt so uncomfortable. He don’t have no control over his own Motel. Just a very nasty place. I recommend nobody to stay here.

Not impressed/pleased
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Room had bugs everywhere and when brought to the staff's attention we were met with the response, "we have no other rooms available and all we can do is contact maintenance and see if they have time to spray the room." We weren't even offered any form of compensation for the inconvenience so we had to find a different hotel.

Pros:

I had to to check out of my room 10-02-25 to go to the bank. Came back at check in time 1:30pm. They put me back in my same room that I checked out of. It was never cleaned and the sink was still leaking. Also when I paid at the property with cash they forgot to give me my change. So today they came to askif I was staying I told them I just was waiting for my friend to come bring my check. This was at 11:50 pm. Then at 1:00 they demanded I remove all of my things while they stood there and threatened to help me pull all of my things out. This is where I'm at now and have the money for my room but seriously debating to check back in.

Pros:

Nothing. Only thing I like about the property is that it’s cheap.

Cons:

Need to be torn down. Too many hookers and drug addicts fighting day and night. Hotel is infested with cockroaches big as your thumbs. Tv didn’t work when I was staying there and it took them 4 days to fix it but instead of fixing it they swapped tv from another room. Sheets are not clean blood stain on them, dead bugs as well. MOLD are all over the building. If u can’t afford to stay anywhere this is the place to be because it’s cheap but u better off staying in your car somewhere else.
