I booked this hotel expecting a budget-friendly stay, but it turned out to be quite disappointing. The rooms weren't clean, and I had a rather uncomfortable experience with the smell of smoke and pests. The location felt a bit unsafe, which added to my unease. While the staff was quick at check-in, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. If you're on a tight budget, it might work, but I'd recommend looking elsewhere if you can afford it.

Facilities were lacking; my first room had no smoke alarm and the plumbing appeared to be in disarray.

The hotel offers basic accommodations at a really low price, which aligns with its overall value. While the receptionist was quick and pleasant, the overall cleanliness of the room was concerning, particularly with a smoke smell present despite requesting a non-smoking room. There were also some safety concerns with suspicious activity at night. If on a tight budget, this place might work, but I wouldn't recommend staying here if you have the option to spend a little more.

My stay here was less than ideal. The first impression was quite off-putting; the lobby felt sketchy and the room had a cigarette smell despite being labeled 'non-smoking.' There was also a significant issue with cleanliness, which contributed to an overall uncomfortable experience. I would not recommend this place if you're looking for a pleasant stay.

This motel was a complete letdown. The overall atmosphere felt shabby, and I encountered numerous issues during my stay. While the price was low, it definitely reflected the quality of the experience, and I left feeling exhausted and frustrated.

The room conditions were far from acceptable. It smelled of smoke, had a bed that sagged, and the sheets had cigarette burns. I found it hard to get comfortable.
