I have stayed at this motel in the past, and parked my ford f350 truck here before. They have new management, and wouldn’t let me park my slightly oversized (long-bed pickup truck). They could have easily accommodated me. The surrounding area is no street parking. So, I had to risk getting a 55$ parking ticket parking on the neighborhood street. The rooms are clean, overall it’s a relatively cheap room for the neighborhood that has good freeway access.

My experience at this motel was utterly unacceptable and frankly, disgusting. Upon entering my room, I was immediately greeted by the disturbing sight of roaches crawling near the microwave and sink. As someone with a severe allergy to roaches, this was beyond a mere inconvenience—it was a health hazard. Despite photographic evidence clearly demonstrating the infestation, the motel staff reacted with complete indifference, dismissing my concerns and refusing any form of refund, even though I had only been in the room for approximately one hour. Their dismissive and unprofessional behavior, coupled with the appalling state of the room, left me with no choice but to seek alternative lodging at my own expense. This motel's blatant disregard for cleanliness and customer service is deeply troubling, and I would strongly urge anyone considering staying here to look elsewhere. This experience was not just disappointing; it was a serious health risk and a complete waste of time and money.

Room was not clean. Had to request a blanket because only a bed sheet and old bed spread were provided. Towels were dirty and visible hair was seen on the sink and in the shower. Room also smelled moldy. Would definitely not recommend.

The room service entered my room without permission. Also, I am not sure how they exactly knew where I keep my phone when I am in the washroom.
