Sleep in your car. It's better
This hotel does not deserve it's name. Look at the pictures. The window is held closed by a screw attached to some piece of wood, bed leg and bathroom sink legs are crooked. The toilet flush is in a inconvenient spot to say the least. The carpet is full of stains. There was a cricket under the bread which by the way free breakfast is cereals and toasts only. Do not waste your time, sleep in your car.

This location requires an extensive renovation. It is only a small upgrade from sleeping in your vehicle.

Our television in the room did not work. We changed rooms. The toilet did not work properly, the bed and bedding were something to be desired. We paid thru Expedia and the front desk took our card number and wanted to charge us, because they couldn’t collect from you guys.

The motel property was not appealing Inside everything was good. Because of the surrounding exterior, we missed the sign. Although the building stood out, we did not realize it was the motel and we passed it going 15 minutes out of our way. I would like a full breakfast not just the small amount offered

Barely made the acceptable level.
The room was dated and there was a spider web in one corner. The TV had to be turned on at the set and the volume control as well. Poor signage travelling from the east. Light fixtures falling off the wall.

Clean basic room. When we first walked in there was a bit of a damp musty smell, I didn’t notice it once we ran the air conditioning for awhile. Fine for an overnight. Close to the causeway and a truck stop diner nearby.

Not a lot of options in the area less than $100 so we went for this one. Pay a little more and get a LOT more. This is a motel (back your car up to the room entrance type of place). Hasn't been updated since probably the 1980's. When we pulled up, I had to suck my breath in. We made the best of it, but there's a reason they don't have pictures of their building.

Gave me a room where the bathroom sink did not drain, then moved me to a second room that had ? blood stains on the wall. Was surprised that a simple cold breakfast was included. That was appreciated
