Unfortunately there are bed bugs and my wife and I were both bitten throughout our stay. The motel owner tried to provide a refund, but he said since we booked with Expedia, we could not. Don't use Expedia.

There was NOTHING to like. Run by an Indian family with no standards! Run down, no one in office, everything was broken, chipped or peeled. Hispanic contractors partying all evening in front and back. Very dangerous area. This proprietor doesn’t care about anything. First time I felt like $70 was a ripoff. Expedia should remove this hotel. Ad, photos and reviews are misleading or fake!

Cockroaches were present. Mild odor. Carpet was very worn and dirty. When I stepped into the wet shower, there was black liquid around my feet immediately. The beds were very poor. The staff was very polite and helpful, but this property is badly in need of updating.

Not a five star hotel by any means but a five star review due to friendly helpful staff and clean room. Rooms and property are a little shabby and very dated, but for the price the place is comfortable and staff fully serviced the room each night. If I come back to the area I will stay here again.

Listen…for a $65 (with tax) room, I was not expecting much. And it did not disappoint. But to be fair, it was close by my event, the carpet was not dirty, and the beds appears to be well maintained. I was comfortable and it was pretty quiet. All in all, you won’t be impressed but youlll get what you paid for…a fairly clean, quiet and safe place to lay your head.

It's a 1 star hotel but no one told them that. They operate their little place with pride and hospitality. For the price, it can't be beat. Unfortunately, I've paid twice as much and received half the quality. I'm definitely going to be staying here again.
