Categories

Cleanliness
3
Multiple reports of unclean rooms: roaches, blood on walls, stained carpets, unmade rooms and trash left in bathroom; one review noted a clean room but overall cleanliness is poor.
Service
9
Mixed signals in reviews: complaints about early charges, front desk errors and door banging contrasted with mentions of respectful staff and maintenance responding (though not always fully resolving issues). Overall some staff were helpful.
Location
9.5
Repeatedly described as conveniently located and close to destinations; location is consistently the strongest attribute mentioned.
Room Quality
5.5
Very inconsistent: reports of wrong bed types, burn marks, broken furniture and mismatched photos online, but one review described a very comfortable, clean room with a large bed and good amenities.
Amenities
4
Frequently missing or nonfunctional amenities: advertised breakfast not served, coffee machines that didn't work, lack of drinking glasses, no closet in some rooms; some rooms did have a large fridge and good outlets.
Value for Money
5.5
Several guests felt they did not get what they paid for (wrong bed type, poor condition), but the low price and good location mitigate this somewhat for some travelers.
Food and Beverage
3
Multiple complaints about false advertising of breakfast and nonworking coffee machines; food/beverage offering is minimal to non-existent.
Overall Experience
6.9
Overall mixed-to-negative experience: many reports of disgusting rooms and immediate check-outs, offset by a few positive stays (clean, comfortable rooms, helpful staff) and strong location.

Very dissatisfied. Do better
Pros:

There were beds so I could sleep

Cons:

Website said free breakfast but they don’t serve breakfast at all. Had the reservation under my debit card but wanted to change it to my credit card but the young girl behind the desk said they already charged my debit card. They charged it hours before I checked in. Why couldn’t they have cancelled that so I could put the charge on my credit card. Asked for a late check out on Sunday and they were still banging on my door at 11. I

Cons:

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this place. I lasted all of ten minutes before I had to leave. I’d rather eat the $74 and walk away without a refund than spend one more minute in this “hotel.” Calling this place a hotel is an insult to actual hotels. This place is the seventh circle of hell.

Motel was very close to our destination, Williamsburg, Motel and room was totally disappointing
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Advertise coffee in room, there was none, no drinking glasses in room, burn holes in bedding, couch in room was a sleeper but would not fold into couch having wrong size mattress, toilet seat was broken. Pictures of facilities and room shown online did not match what we found. We reserved a.”delue”room with two queen beds but there was nothing delux about the room.

This place is absolutely disgusting. This should not be offered on booking
Pros:

The location was fine. That’s the best thing about the property

Cons:

The first room they gave us had not been cleaned. It had an unmade bed. Half eaten food. Alcohol bottles and used female products in the bathroom. In our “upgraded” room we got joint.

Won’t be back !
Pros:

The room was not cleaned in a long time, fridge and freezer had stuff stuck to inside, light fixtures were broken or what appeared to be blood on them, carpet was stained, tub had burn five burn marks. Curtains and bed spread dirty and had burn holes. Large photo that hung on wall was sitting on floor by bed. And if that wasn’t bad enough there were roaches everywhere .

Cons:

Everything was horrible.
