Poor value. There wasn’t even a drinking cup (even disposable plastic). The tv only worked intermittently. No hair dryer. Bare hanging light bulb. Cracked bathtub repaired with duct tape. Need I go on?

Great staff terrible rooms
The staff was incredibly kind but it was the most uncomfortable and unclean room I ever stayed at in my entire life. I showered twice once I returned home.

The air conditioner threw materials when turned on. It made a noise that was so loud surely people walking past the motel on the sidewalk could hear. Staying here is not safe.
