I found this motel online, and while it was a decent price and convenient for where I was headed, it didn't live up to expectations. The appearance was misleading, as it looks quite rundown in person. The room was clean, but I could see daylight around the door jamb, and the windows had dirty, damaged screens. Plus, I was taken aback when they mentioned they would charge me for extra coffee pods. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

I found a motel that was conveniently close to where I needed to be, and it was budget-friendly. However, the pictures online were misleading, and the place seemed rundown in person. While my room was clean, I noticed some issues, like daylight creeping in around the door and dirty window screens. I was surprised to learn that extra coffee pods would cost me. Overall, not a great experience.

I recently stayed at this motel and had mixed feelings. The overall cleanliness was questionable, and the room seemed a bit rundown. However, the price was decent for the stay, even if there were some drawbacks that made me uneasy. The lack of breakfast and amenities also added to my disappointment, particularly being charged for extra coffee pods.

I recently stayed at this motel and was really concerned upon arrival due to its appearance, but I hoped for the best. The rooms were a bit cleaner than expected, but overall, I wasn’t impressed with the quality. The location was convenient, but I did not feel very safe. It’s hard to recommend it unless you’re just looking for an inexpensive place to crash for a night.

The room was clean enough, but we discovered the sheets weren’t freshly laundered, which was alarming. The floors were bare but had spots that needed attention.
