It was the cheapest place...that was closest to where we had to be. But wouldn't recommend taking kids there. Or pets.
The bed was comfortable n the air-conditioning n cable worked. So it did it's purpose. But they need to teach the maids to actually clean.
Property is in need of total make over. Second floor is completely sealed off like the code enforcement has shut it down. Our room was in dire need of repairs. We left early.

I didn’t actually stay there. I made a reservation based on the 6.2 rating and low price. Almost immediately after making the reservation on Expedia, I realized I had made the reservation for the wrong date. I tried to send a message to the motel via Expedia, asking to move my reservation to the following day. After getting no response for over two hours, I read the recent reviews indicating the place was filthy and unhygienic. I called the motel to notify them I would not be coming. Though I was out the payment I had been required to secure the reservation made, I decided it wasn’t worth what I paid to risk my health staying in a filthy place.

The shower was dirty. The water backed up while showering. There was loud noise and verbal altercation outside the door past 1 am.
Absolute filth reserved two rooms for daughter and friends I was mortified by this place smelled to high hell fridge didn’t close bathtub so dirty it was unusable toilet cracked outlets by sink didn’t work I couldn’t wait to get out of there something needs done about this place total waste of over $200
The room disgustingly filthy, poop on the toilet, tub was so dirty we could not sure it. Old smelly room, smelled liked cigarettes, floors had not been cleaned in ages, towel were a dingy grey. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!!!!!
It was super close to our venue and the staff was great.. but it was very dirty and gross and a couple outlets didn't work by the sink where you would need to get ready so it wasn't too convenient.. otherwise fine.
Terrible,my room had dog hair and blood stains everywhere.the worse I've been in my whole life

Would not recommend. Place is rundown and has bugs. Most of the rooms here people live in. And on top of poor conditions they charged me a no show charge when i had already been checked in for two days. Been waiting almost a month for my refund that i still havent received. And when i call and talk to them they get just an attitude with me..
This place needs to be refurbished now. They also need to hire a cleaning crue. We did not use the bathtub looked bad. Didnt want to use it. I washed most of the walls because they were covered in stuff. The corners above the bathroom sink there were cobwebs. Looks like theyvhave been there or a year. Until it is cleaned up I would not recommend this place.
This room had been rented by smokers and so am allergic to smoke. There were burn marks in the bathroom and cigarette burns on the bedspreads. I also saw a roach this morning when we were packing to leave. The walls need to be repainted as there are stains everywhere. They had heavy plastic on the mattresses which I appreciated so as not to get bed bugs.However, even though they had a mattress pad on top of the plastic, we were both drenched in sweat upon awaking due to the plastic. All in all, it was bad

With very limited options in the area for festivals, this is about as good as you get. The staff are very friendly. Well the facilities are lacking.
I like that there was a microwave and a fridge. That’s about it.
I feel the need to disinfect myself after leaving though.

Not the greatest place to stay
Wasn’t the cleanest place we stayed in, found sneakers under the bed, old shampoo in the bathroom! They didn’t clean the room the 4 days we were there!

The place was fine but at one point I was sitting there watching TV and some guy just comes into my room, he must have had a key because it was locked. He mumbled something like "they told me you weren't here" and he left. Don't leave your stuff in your room when you go out.
