100% Honest review: I've traveled the entire U.S., stayed everywhere from 1star to 5star - DO NOT believe the high ratings!! Esp the 8/10-10/10, they're either fake or written by crackheads. This is an old school, nasty, trucker motel. When my family arrived at 9pm there were pr0stitutes in the parking lot where all the semis are parked, right by our room. The sheets were disgusting! Not stained, but clearly dirty & unwashed, huge dirt smears in them, dead bugs on them, other pieces of stuff all over both beds. The mattress covers were stained. The fridge did not work at all & REEKED of rotten food; we opened it & gagged. Hair all over the bathroom, tile was so dirty - it hasnt been cleaned in a long time, so disgusting. Nothing was clean, everything is old & broken, toilet wasnt attached to the ground. Don't even think you're eating breakfast here. This is somewhere you stay if you only have $35 to your name. If you've traveled a lot, you know that these low-end places owned by Middle Eastern descent are known for being run down & dirty - it's just a fact. If you have a family, do not stay here, no matter what the good reviews say.

You get what you paid for

“You get what you pay for” Front desk guy was either sleeping or high as a kite, barely gave us any information on anything. Very blunt and rude attitude. Room was completely falling apart. Towels and pillow cases were stained with pink and yellow marks and their bedding was very thin (just an under sheet). All furniture had residue from probably food or whatever grease that was brought in from other guests. Walls, flooring, and shower are all slowly falling apart there are cracks in the walls everywhere and there was someone’s pubes or body hair left in the shower. If you need a quick place to sleep, and shower and you don’t care about the little details this will do. But otherwise, please go spare yourself and get a more decent place to crash. Only good note we have about this place is the guy who does house cleaning is chill and has a good attitude. For $60 we got a bed to sleep in, running hot and cold water to shower, and AC, but wouldn’t recommend if you’re coming from out of town.

Reasonable for the price

It was right next to the massive freeway and loud as all get out. For the price it was good, but the bed was like sleeping on a morgue slab. There was not even a continental breakfast but hey. The bathroom was less than clean. For $51 it served its purpose and the guy who ran it was really nice.

Remember you get what you pay for here! So upon arrival the staff tells me he has to put us in a non smoking room with double beds because they already gave out all the non smoking single bed rooms like we reserved. I said ok thats fine no problem. Finish checking in and get the key to rm#118. We then go to our room and open the door and it smells like its smothered in cigarette smoke and the smoke alarm is beeping non stop, so I call the desk as them if they want to fix it or replace the battery or what not, the staff said I will just move you to the next room over rm#120 ok sounds good and he was courteous enough to bring us the key and everything. We get into rm#120 and start getting our bags brought in then I walked over to the sink and it had hairs all in it and around it even some toothpaste definitely had not been cleaned, so then I look in the bathroom and there are folded clean towels on the back of the toliet with the soaps and shampoo they give out but then look down at the toilet and it had dried urine shattered on it and as well as the floor , the tub was disgusting as well there was like blackish dirt smudges on the edge and same on the inside of around the tub with the soap scum and that black stuff was in the bottom of the tub as well almost looked like mold. The beds were made but one look dirty like the sheets hadn't been washed and the pillow case had stuff on it . It all looked like fresh stuff left everywhere and the room was never cleaned after that

I need a refund for the stay that I booked and didn't check in, me or my child or anyone else for that matter, should stay in a place like that, the facility should probably be closed all together

The staff here was wonderful, friendly and easy to deal with. Despite being next to a major interstate, it was relatively quiet. Property could use some updating, but served its purpose well. Will stay again !!!

Terrible service

When I arrived at the hotel, my room wasn’t ready because they had not cleaned the rooms and they didn’t know when they were clean the rooms so I asked them to refund my money and he said he would do it the next day, but my money has not been refunded.
