Avera Suites

The room was crawling with roaches. There were dirty sheets, dead bugs between them, and bed bugs under the mattress. I didn't see a microwave, though with the room in that condition I wouldn't have used it anyway. The motel looks like it's falling apart. It needs to be shut down by the health department. I wish zero stars were an option.

I paid over eighty dollars through booking.com, then arrived that night to find nobody at the hotel and a sign saying it was closed from 11 to 7. Ringing the bell did nothing. I'd been calling nonstop since 3 p.m., from when I booked right up to sitting in the parking lot with no way to get into my room. I tried to get a refund through booking.com and still haven't received one, so I had to pay for another hotel too. I strongly advise people against staying here. Try calling and see if you can reach a person, I couldn't even get voicemail. The outside looked dirty and neglected, so maybe it was for the best. I might have ended up with bed bugs or something.

We stayed May 23-27, 2025, and the cost ended up being $335 for four nights. I'd booked for $185 on booking.com, and for that price I'd expected a roach motel, but I hadn't expected extra charges: a $50 deposit at check-in and $25 per night for my chihuahua, even though the website said pet friendly and didn't mention a pet deposit. If I'd known the total, I'd have picked a better hotel. My husband and I spent several minutes killing roaches when we arrived, then asked the desk for a broom and cleaned the room ourselves. We swept them up and found loose socks and cigarette butts under the bed. We went straight to sleep that first night. The next night, after attending the Renaissance festival, our key didn't work. I understand that can happen anywhere, but no one was at the desk to fix it, and the sign said they'd be gone until 7 a.m. Luckily, we have relatives in town and stayed with them, but we lost one of the nights we'd booked and got no money back. The one bright spot was the neighbor's pit bull, a very sweet dog on a leash who was protective of her owner. We got a free guard dog, which felt useful in that part of town. I used to live in Muskogee, so I know the area.

The TV had lines on the screen, there was no ice bucket, and the shower was awful. The undersides of the beds were sickening. I'm never coming back.
