Go to the Motel 6. Its so much better. I was lucky i was travelling with two grown men. This place was terrifying, cold, the staff were rude, and they had lkmited amenities. The only upside was there were no bed bugs.

The price of the room almost scared me away because it was definitely the cheapest one. But I took a chance that it would be clean and safe and it was. Just needed a place to sleep and it was perfect.

The lady at the front desk with the red hair was nice. That’s about it. multiple people live at this hotel. A bunch of sketchy people were roaming around the parking lot. Got to my room, it smelled like cat pee and cigarettes. The lights didn’t work in the room. The bathroom was dirty and covered in burn marks. I left and went to a hotel up the street. Spend the extra money and do that. I did not feel safe there. I was also told the owner “doesn’t do refunds”. I can imagine why, they wouldn’t make any money.

The worst play to stay ever!!!

Was there a total of 3 weeks room was disgusting but was looking for an apartment in mean time. The room was already dirty and damaged prior to getting there. A hole in the bottom of the door allowing bugs to walk in. It says smoke free facility but the STAFF and RESIDENTS are smoking non stop near the office and doorways. The neighbors constantly fight making it hard to sleep. The worst part is the reviews (they give themselves) were all great. But first couple weeks I was getting bite in bed, thought maybe ants. Then found it was bed bugs! I called the staff and they told me to throw away my own sheets and to come get new ones if I wanted. I asked for a refund and they said no refunds and that I PROBABLY BROUGHT THEM! My family and I are very clean and I just drove from California for a place to stay before finding a home and they say I brought them?!?! I ended up sleeping in my car for the next 4 days and only using the restroom in the room until I got into my apartment. This place needs to be shutdown!!!

The staff was great and very helpful. They were the most pleasant part of my stay there. The room wasn't very clean. The sheets had hair on them and the floor was not clean. In the middle of the night, on the first night there, there was a flying cockroach in the room. Housekeeping never came to my room, so I had to constantly ask for toilet paper. They never came to get the trash or give me fresh towels. Also, there was no phone in the room, so I had to constantly walk down to the office to get anything needed for the room.

Not worth

The room was very bare, with much visible damage on walls. The kitchen sink leaked, and the stove top did not work. No light in fridge. No towels provided for bathroom. The room was designated as no smoking but reeked of cigars. And the walls were far from noise proof. Also the fire alarm for the whole building went off at 4am because people were smoking inside on the 3rd floor.

From the outside, the place looks nice. Then, you get to the service window, and it starts to seem sketchy. The attendant was friendly and inside a protected area. We took the elevator to the third floor, and it jolted so hard that the ceiling looked and sounded like it was going to fall in. This happened every time. In the room, there were used hair rubber bands on the floor, cigarette burns on the bath tub and toilet, shower curtain was dingy dirty, and the toilet seat was not attached properly. The bed was clean and relatively comfortable, floor was sticky, and the air conditioner was extremely noisy. This place has “extended stay” visitors living there, and a lot of the rooms are in disrepair, as seen through the open windows. We will never stay here again.
