Noisy bed.Old dirty cloth on ironing table.

Too Tiny room, no coffe ,no drinking water provided. Blankets had holes on it. Too old and dirty cloth or the iron table. Spring Bed Boxes ,made creepy noise if one person on it turns to any side. Convenient parking, like RoadWayInn is the only advantage. And Restaurant very near by.

While we were about to go to sleep we saw a roach crawl down the wall. The bed was made but there were crumbs on it. A random qtip was on the floor. The tv didn’t work. Overall, it was not a great experience.

The property was fine, the expedia experience was terrible. They did not have a record of it, even though I had the confirmation on my phone. BUT, it did now show a reservation # ! Only my Expedia record # which meant nothing to them. So then I had to download the expedia app to get what I needed and could not do that. The motel just gave me a room. They were nice and the room was clean. Expedia experience was terrible.

Lets start with the good, it was SUPER quiet. And the water pressure was amazing... and thats all the good.. We were greeted by 3 unhoused people, one activity using in front of the door, could not walk. I drove around for about 5 minutes before checking in because i didnt feel safe to leave my car. I an not a weak person, and have delt with active addition before, but THIS was really bad.. there was ZERO CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST.. even though it was listed. DO NOT TAKE KIDS HERE, not safe. There were used needles in the pool.. so take it for what it is...

I booked 3 Nights.After the first night I was getting ready to go shopping. The maid came by and asked if I was staying another night. I said yes and didn't need any towels. When I came back my key would't work and when I looked in the window all my stuff was gone.When I went to the office they told me I was in a different room. I told them I know which room I was in but would check the other room for my stuff which wasn't there.I went back to the office and finally they found all my stuff in their back room.They had no expanation as to why my belongings were packed up.I had a medical device that I used twice a day and some of the parts were missing. Those were never found.Needless to say I left that day..DO NOT STAY HERE!

The staff was NOT friendly at all. After staying there on and off for months they wanted to start charging me a pet fee of $22.50 a day for my dog which Id had with me the entire time! it was only when a certain employee worked that I was being harassed and treated differently and unfairly. and not to mention the surroundings arent pleasant either. And they started charging more for the pool and never even opened it

I was stranded due to weather, and had to wait till next day for my flight. Due to two other events going on in the area, most hotels were booked (or $600+). Found this hotel about 20 min from airport. The room was clean. The first room offered was occupied. In the next room offered, the A/C unit was disassembled in the room. This was the last room available that was non-smoking. I was told by the attendant that there was a smoking room available but it was known to have roaches. The attendant did try calling to the hotels next door to see if there was availability, but everything was booked. With no other hotels in the area available I stayed in the room with no A/C for the night. Thankfully I had added travel insurance to this stay, which I would recommend. You may have a great experience, I just had a lot of things working against me this one night.
