- Guest (1/5): -
- Roberto (7/5): - It was quiet and clean. You have to drive to get to anything. There were a couple sketchy people.
- Kim (10/5): The place was more than I was expecting. I truly have no complaints. - Would love if they offered breakfast. I am amazed with the staff,. I have no complaints on anything I experienced. The guys in the office are amazing. I recommend this motel to everyone
- Kim (10/5): I am amazed in the stay. - The gentlemen in office were the nicest men you could meet. Hospitality was excellent. Honestly I have no complaints. I would highly recommend. N/A
- Cream1216 (10/5): -
- Drayton (10/5): I felt welcome and comfortable. - The staff was friendly and treated me with respect . The area was quiet and also convenient. I would recommend it to others. I have no complaints.
- Gross (10/5): -
- Guest (4/5): Won't be back. The front desk guy was not professional - There was none I was booked a smoking room and got a non smoking room. A very disappointed
- Kurbonov (10/5): -
- Quintin (1/5): Wouldn’t and couldn’t stay. Remodeling, better staff and a cleaner hotel would be great. - Location I booked a King bedroom online in advance, expecting the room I reserved. However, upon arrival, I was informed that no King rooms were available. To make matters worse, I was handed a key and told to “go check out” a different room myself. When I entered the room, I was appalled—it was in disgusting condition and completely unacceptable. I immediately returned the key and made it clear that I had no intention of checking in under such circumstances. The entire experience was unprofessional and deeply disappointing.
- HOA (8/5): -
- Mattiesha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Torrance (2/5): Very poor - Not a good location , mold on the walls, cock roach in the bathroom- we just couldn’t stay. We tried so hard.
- Mattiesha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carol (3/5): Do not stay here! - Located on the sketchy side of town. Drunk people were talking outside my door at 2 am. No one was working at the front desk, so I called the police. Lastly, the shower curtain was filthy, it clearly had not been replaced and I had to ask for a new one.
- Simon (1/5): Bad -
- MICHAEL (2/5): - The property was nasty dirty disgusting the facility was absolutely rotten. We refuse to stay there. It wasn’t an unsafe neighborhood
Nobody should be staying at this property
- Anonymous (8/5): Nice clean comfortable place to stay - Room was clean. Great bed. Big fridge. Good desk and chair. Even had a comfortable sitting chair that was great to relax in. Was pretty quiet also. No diet drinks in any of the vending machines or store in office. The tv itself was good. The reception on some channels was bad. It was only a minor inconvenience though
- Cynthia (2/5): - Crack hotel. Scarey people all over the parking lot. In the security cameras as we were checking in i saw a guy doing drugs off of the dryer. Nasty & disturbing
- Norris (5/5): You get what you pay for. - Location was good and pretty quiet We booked a room of 4 only had 2 towels. When we asked for 2 more they refused at first. After multiple trips to the front desk and back to the laundry room I had finally had enough. The workers had a lousy attitude and it seemed to inconvenience them if you needed any assistance.
- Anonymous (1/5): Bad - It was the WORST EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD ON THIS SITE OR EVER. I checked in at a "late night drive up window" I was given a key and after maneuvering through people gathered in groups on the stairs I entered my room and went to bring all my luggage up. It's alot since we traveled from va to house hunt. I finally got situated and went to use the bathroom where I discovered a) toilet doesn't flush..and has urine in it .a bath mat hanging..a USED WASHCLOTH WITH BAR OF SOAP INSIDE IT on bathtub shelf..unmade bed, the TV didn't have remote OR WORK. I left repacked car and drove to turn my key in. I rang the bell and the short-haired younger gentlemen came to windows ( please keep in mind I reserved room on booking. Com. ) I told him the issues..and he said so u don't have a washcloth? I replied no the washcloth has been used and the room wasn't cleaned a ( I arrived at around 1230 pm due to driving from va) I said I am returning key and he said I didn't come immediately to window. And if I HAD COMPLAINED BEFORE 1AM EVEN THOUGH IT WAS 1247 he could do something but now he can't help me. I have ALWAYS USED BOOKING. COM it's been reliable....I honestly don't know if I will use it again especially when I DEPEND ON THEIR STATUS RECOMMENDATIONS...AND I GET THIS WITH NO remedy to the situation... HIGHLY HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED
- Henry (2/5): - N/a
- GARY (4/5): - There was water on the floor in the bathroom. The toilet was leaking. There was no soap.
- Ashleigh (5/5): Not what is advertised! - Close to the highway and good price Not clean, didn’t get king size bed for a couple coming to town, knocks on the door before 4:00am.
- Steven (9/5): Superb - Location No hand towels
- Lael (2/5): - Terrible place
- Cameron (1/5): It was horrible never again - I liked nothing about this property I already knew when pulling up how it was going to go and it went exactly that way I didn’t like that my room was dirty and not cleaned, trash all in the drawers, finger gauze with blood on it on the single chair in the corner floor was dirty
- Simone (2/5): - Literally COULD NOT STAY HERE it was so unsafe and disgusting, lock on the door wasn't even attached, DIRTY sheets. Its a crime that they charge people to stay here.
- Anthony (6/5): - Didn't have the room I paid for available
- Lee (10/5): Overall loved it - Everything was great Not applicable
- Lisa (8/5): - Our stay was fine. The room as clean except for the floor which looked like they mopped without sweeping first. The room was fine other than the springs under the mattress that made a very loud noise if you moved the wrong way or got out of that side of the bed. But it was cleaner than some other rooms Ive stayed at.
- G (10/5): Great stay - Great customer service rep was very helpful and patient with my reservation that was not populated on the site Csr
- Shaun (8/5): Very good -
- Jessica (3/5): Never again - Nothing Everything
- Ashley (1/5): Wouldn't recommend unless in case of an emergency and you have no other options - The vibe or environment. Wouldn't recommend unless in case of an emergency and you have no other options Environment. Wouldn't recommend unless in case of an emergency and you have no other options
- Hepfer (5/5): Passable - Water leaked and floor was very wet
- Fabiola (4/5): - Nothing
- Terry (2/5): Very poor - The staff was very rude then they forced a hundred dollar deposit then they want to interrogate me or why I'm there and then the room was so damn hot the air conditioner didn't work is sweated it's miserable I would never stay there again Leaving the place
- Bobby (8/5): - It was ok the room was nice and clean. It's a nice motel but too many people hanging around outside for me.
- Miroslav (2/5): - They had hot water, noisy but working old AC, and ~40 channels of cable TV. That is the best that could be said for this place. No shampoo, no iron for clothes, no hair drier, questionable bed sheets, and I had the feeling that the fridge would almost fly away with the noise that it was making. I was surprised to find working ice machine on the way out. If one absolutely has to stay in this place, make everything possible to get a room that is facing the street. We were initially offered a room in the back, and ouch.
- Rupinder (4/5): - Bed bugs and insects in the washroom
- Angie (4/5): Disappointing -
- Cameron (2/5): - Cigarette burns in the blankets, sink leaks, bath tub is old, towels are dirty
- John (8/5): Very good -
- Taje (10/5): - The rooms were very clean
- Brogdon (1/5): Never again - They came and changed our sheets after they had us in 2 other rooms They didn’t have my room ready. The 2nd room they put us in was ok the fridge wasn’t working but it wasn’t a smoking room which is what I paid for. When they finally put me in the smoking room it wasn’t clean. There was urine on the toilet seat and the sheets was dirty and the floor also. The air wasn’t working properly.
- Hill (1/5): Bad - Nothing it was dirty beds was nasty I didn't like everything
- Tranika (2/5): For the price it's not worth staying at this hotel if you are from out of town. Locals are used to i - Appliances was ok Horrible location. There were people standing outside during the night hanging around. A lot of movement. The TV had no cable and some of the towels had dirt stains. I was uncomfortable here but we could not get a refund as the sign stated up front. We spent 150 on this room. It was late once we had gotten back
- Warren (10/5): It was for business - It was for business only but has a nice little bar on the property. Little store on the inside of lobby. Nice washer and dryers. All in all it was pretty damn awesome.
- Angela (2/5): - I liked nothing about the place.
- Alina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ronnie (2/5): Hotel room dirty and very noisy guests - Felt at risk had to prop door up with table and wedge all cases against door Clean sheets

- Lawanda (9/5): Superb - Convenient Nothing
- Karina (4/5): Change the mattress. More attention to the cleaning part. - Easy to find . Quick check in It was not clean. The bed had hair . The bed was not comfortable, it was creaking . Also on website it said they had breakfast in fact they didn’t.
- Shannon (8/5): Very good - Like it was near airport and I was greeted by staff who knew I was arriving after 11pm. Comfortable room for a weary traveller needing a good rest. Reception allowed me to leave my cases at reception if I needed it after checking out. An older style motel but suited me

- Deon (4/5): Disappointing -
- Lake (7/5): Good -
- Ronnie (6/5): - Guy at the night window tried to Charge $180 for a room that was listed online for $80. Bad area. Lots of drug dealers and people in and out of the parking lot out of all hours of the night. Lots of noise in the next door rooms.

- Brittany (10/5): Exceptional - Customer service
- Kristin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tyler (7/5): Short but pleasant 1 - There was no breakfast provided but for the price of the room I was more than satisfied. Some of the other occupants were a little loud after 1an but nothing that bothered me to much to sleep.
- Rikki (6/5): It was a good stay overall - It was a nice hotel and the staff was amazing My room was kinda nasty. The tub had some shaved hair on it
- Jen (6/5): Pleasant - The stafff All the extra stuff outside going on
- David (8/5): - I liked the mini kitchen it’s equipped with
- Patricia (1/5): Bad - This place was awful you should take it off booking.com I was so scared to even stay the full night people were outside of my room all night some were doing drugs right on the stairs by my room I was so unhappy I asked for my money back but they said no refunds the room was dirty and the bedding had burn holes in it the pillows had blood on them this was a very bad experience
- Michelle39 (8/5): Very good -
- Kimberly (1/5): you should remove this place. It’s dangerous, and if there was a way of warning people, I would. - nothing!! it was a terrifying experience! I paid for the room online through Booking.com, because my flight was changed to the following day. I only needed to be there a few hours, and when I arrived, they wanted me to walk in the middle of the night to an ATM to give them $150 cash deposit for security. eventually he decided to not charge that to me. He said because I look like a senior citizen he would trust me. There were drug dealers, prostitution, fighting, he gave me the very back building at the very end of the location in the dark I had to walk out to the room, it had holes in it it was stained dirty, the sheets and towels were stained. It smelled so bad even by the time I flew home the next day, my bag smelled awful. I would not go in the shower it was stained also. I was literally terrified to even lay down for a little while. Even my Uber driver was afraid of waiting for me as I put my shoes on he commented on the girls screaming running through the parking lot adamant saying, don’t touch me. I do not recommend this place for anyone!! 
- Verified traveler (2/5): Know What You’re Getting Into - Not enough words can express my discontent with this property. Any positive reviews are misleading. Pretty sure there was illegal activity going on behind the facility. We booked for two nights and didn’t even stay. We tried to get a refund but this property offers no refunds under any circumstances. I was happier getting out of that property and into a different hotel than getting refund. Please know what you’re getting into before booking or checking into this hotel. When I called to get a refund, the manager hung up on me. When I went to the front desk, the manager was nowhere to be found. Please know what you’re getting into before staying at this “hotel”. The room also had a broken lock, broken toilet, broken drawer. Honestly needs to be demolished at this point.
- Brittany (7/5): Good -
- Brittany (7/5): Good -
- Crys (10/5): Exceptional - Location and staff Location
- Charles (3/5): Poor -
- Glenn (5/5): Passable - Availability Age and condition of facility and amenities
- Kristin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zbigniew (5/5): Expensive and unsafe - didn’t feel save at night; expensive for what it offers
- austintR4124UG (2/5): Someone probably got murdered here - This was the worst motel I’ve been too. The toilets had strains of feces from the previous person. The bed sheets had blood and holes in them. They didn’t have a door chain either for the door. Definitely did not feel safe what so ever. Also they had mold in the vents and mildew in the shower. Plus there was no trash can, but seems like the workers already treat the room as a trashcan it self.
- Natasha (10/5): Exceptional - Everything especially Pops who run the front desk
- Yvonne (6/5): Beware, not good. - This hotel is not good. Check in was quick. Got to room...filthy! Floors covered in dirt, shower, bath, counters, dirty. No chair for the desk, no shampoos, etc; one small bar of soap. No coffeepot, ice buckets, nothing.
Had to call front desk due to the load music at 10:30pm. Not in a good neighborhood. Booked two nights, didn't stay for the 2nd night. Owners would not give refund.
- christine (2/5): Rough area, doesn't feel safe - In the first 5 minutes they were checking a boy's pockets to see if he stole anything and making us sign a waiver that will pay $1000 if anything isn't there in the morning. It's old and rundown. They are trying to make it look nice, but the area they are in and the old worn rooms make it hard to do. Looked like sketchy activity in the back of the hotel. We didn't stay the night, we just left and lost our money as they don't do refunds. Was not what we were expecting.
- William (8/5): Very good -
- Candace (10/5): Exceptional -
