Caleb B.
I paid close to $300 for two nights, though the listed rate seemed to be $135 a night. The prices here apparently change on a whim, with no clear set rate. The rooms smelled of cigarette smoke, the beds were barely made, and they clearly hadn’t been washed. The door lock didn’t work, and I’d bring wipes and disinfectant spray before settling in. There were cockroaches and, more disgustingly, bed bugs. They also charge homeless people much more, as most motels do.

Roaches came out as soon as the lights went on, and I could hear people yelling, fighting, and having sex in other rooms. The TV didn’t work, and the sink was clogged.

Old and kind of quaint. No microwave, coffee pot, or even a phone in the room, just a fridge. But if what you want is a comfy place to sleep and a hot shower with great pressure, this is it. The shower and bed are easily the best things here.

I’ve stayed at lots of hotels around here, but never anywhere this disgusting or neglected. When the lights came on, roaches of all sizes scattered across the floor, beds, and walls. I stepped on six before I’d even put down my bags. The more I looked, the more my skin crawled. There was a well-fed spider behind the bathroom door, and the roaches there took their time scurrying away. About two dozen dead mosquitoes were stuck to the ceiling, so I didn’t even look in the shower. The mattress had blood on it and the sheets had dried semen. I was almost surprised not to find bedbugs in the seams, but there were some huge roaches under the metal box springs. The rooms seemed to get almost no care. Maybe the owner and caretakers don’t look after the place, or maybe they need to hold guests responsible for wrecking the furniture and linens. This is the worst I’ve seen in a long time.

We were there on march 27th. It was the worst hotel we’ve ever stayed at. We’d tried about ten places and this was the only one with a room, which made sense once we saw it. The indian lady was rude. After I paid, she asked for another $5 for the key and said I’d get it back at checkout, but I never did. Bugs were crawling on the bathroom floor, and the carpet didn’t look vacuumed. The place was run down and cost $140. We later paid $202 for two nights somewhere much cleaner and better. I’d rather have slept in the car. Don’t stay here, and get this place shut down.
