- Washington (1/5): -
- Jarvis (1/5): Horrible - There wasn't any breakfast or coffee provided Everything
- John (3/5): Too many bugs - Price Roaches
- WIlliam (1/5): disgusting - nothing basically it’s a homeless shelter. Very 🤢 roaches are everywhere. They are actually in the bed with you. I have to ask him several times for roach spray. I think the city need to come out and shut this place down is based in the homeless shelter, he let anybody hang out around the motel. I felt so uncomfortable. He don’t have no control over his own Motel. Just a very nasty place. I recommend nobody to stay here.
- Claire Tyrr (6/5): Uncomfortable - Close to Subway Restaurant. Shower hot Wifi: hit and miss, got bitten by midges?, funny smell, very old interior, TV was fuzzy. One night very noisy guests packing their truck until 2am!!!! No.one came out to tell them to be quiet
- Patty (1/5): Horrible - No breakfast no coffee cups spoons or coffee tried to get in my room with his keys.i want a refund and I will never stay there again.
- Roberto (1/5): - Nothing Bad Place, Dirty, smell bad, not feel safety. I move for other place.
- Tavis (1/5): -
- Nathan (1/5): Not impressed/pleased - Nothing Room had bugs everywhere and when brought to the staff's attention we were met with the response, "we have no other rooms available and all we can do is contact maintenance and see if they have time to spray the room." We weren't even offered any form of compensation for the inconvenience so we had to find a different hotel.
- Natallia (10/5): Excellent service, super clean hotel . - Super clean. Very polite and friendly staff. Breakfast ( for free) amazing Everything was perfect
- Georgette (3/5): - No bugs. The commode lid blocked the door from closing properly. The bed cause my static nerve to hurt badly.
- Bridget (1/5): Disgusting Room - I did not like anything about this room The room was dirty and full of roaches that got into my bags. The roaches crawled in the bed. The shower head was broken in my bathroom. The place was disgusting.
- Delana (9/5): I'm still staying there - People veas. A lil Longer than I'm use to but good stay Everything Good
- Deangelo (2/5): - They have bedbugs and did not want to refund me my money after confirm it i took video to show them the front desk and they still denied to refund me
- Suzanne (6/5): - I had to to check out of my room 10-02-25 to go to the bank. Came back at check in time 1:30pm. They put me back in my same room that I checked out of. It was never cleaned and the sink was still leaking. Also when I paid at the property with cash they forgot to give me my change. So today they came to askif I was staying I told them I just was waiting for my friend to come bring my check. This was at 11:50 pm. Then at 1:00 they demanded I remove all of my things while they stood there and threatened to help me pull all of my things out. This is where I'm at now and have the money for my room but seriously debating to check back in.
- Ashleigh (2/5): - Insect problem, several types of insects. We didn't even stay, we left as soon as we went inside the room.
- Crystal (2/5): - When I open the door, roaches were everywhere
- Demetris (2/5): - Absolutely dirty rooms had a bad odor electric sockets were either burnt or were just missing door lock on the inside all the wires were exposed roaches everywhere dust and dirt everywhere it was an overall terrible experience I honestly wish I could get my money back
- Kanesha (1/5): - Nothing. Only thing I like about the property is that it’s cheap. Need to be torn down. Too many hookers and drug addicts fighting day and night. Hotel is infested with cockroaches big as your thumbs. Tv didn’t work when I was staying there and it took them 4 days to fix it but instead of fixing it they swapped tv from another room. Sheets are not clean blood stain on them, dead bugs as well. MOLD are all over the building. If u can’t afford to stay anywhere this is the place to be because it’s cheap but u better off staying in your car somewhere else.
- Awilda (1/5): -
- Tyler (2/5): - All kind of damage n it stinks
- Roxanne (2/5): - The room was dirty- roaches- holes in walls- floors were coming up- broken tv
- Lauren (8/5): -
- Brandy (2/5): - this place was so nasty and was told didn't have any clean towels
- Banner (2/5): - The place was absolutely horrible
- Shannon (2/5): Do Not Waste Your $!! They won't refund it!!! - This property shouldn't be on Hotels.com It is a run down motel for locals who are long term staying and comfortable in that environment where most know each other. I wouldn't advise bringing kids and staying there if you are traveling unless you already know the area. I was needing a place to sleep for the night and looked past the people hanging around, the smell of marijuana, clothes drying on rails and fence. As long as I was safe and room was ok, I would have been fine. Basically looked past things to be accepting of the fact it was the cheapest place and during the day, two roaches aren't THAT bad. What were my options to leave, anyways? It gets dark and the line was crossed. I had turned lights off to get into bed. When I got up to use the bathroom I find the Army of roaches scattering off and exploring my few items around the room/bathroom. My towel on the floor to not slip after bath, the clothes I had taken off to take shower on bathroom counter, the shorts and tennis shoes I took off to get into bed, and I'm freaking out cause my toothbrush is on counter, my bags are kinda open and I'm shaking all the loose items, trying to not hit anything while packing up my bags because it awakes them! Me and my stuff were ambushed!!!! I am not scared of roaches but I don't want them crawling on me or near my food or getting into my belongings and making theirself permanent residents for my bags and I and wherever we were headed. Follow your gut instinct when you get there!
- Katherine (4/5): - Nothing.
- gerardette (2/5): - I'm not going to tell no one else about this dirty hotel
- Tyler (2/5): - Never going back.
- Taylor (1/5): So disappointing, I left and stayed somewhere else. - The room we were given had vulgar writing on the walls and mirror, holes in electrical plates on the wall, holes in the curtains, and there were dozens of flies in the room. The room did not look anything like those in the pictures.
- Deedra (2/5): DO NOT STAY - A/c bad , peep holes in curtains , roaches, bed sucked, leaked , in the hood only the front part of motel was rentable.. bad place
- Ken (2/5): - Worst hotel I have EVER stayed in. When I pulled up I thought it was closed or abandoned! Dirty, cigarette holes in bedspread, apparent drug addicts hanging around, smell of urine in halls, I went to kill a roach by the a/C & 6 other roaches came out. Shower water VERY hard to regulate! If my wife was with me I would have kept on going even if it was paid for” I am going to sleep BUT putting things against the door to make a noise if someone tries to come in. I hope my car is there in the morning!!!
- Courtney (2/5): - This property did NOT look anything like the pictures. Very run down and dirty.
- Vijay (2/5): - Highly dirty and unsafe place to stay
- Verified traveler (2/5): Awful - This place was awful it was dirty and there is also people outside and they are looking to steal things so always lock your car and never go outside alone. They also have cockroaches so don’t bring your stuff in with you.

- Tony (2/5): - I do not recommend this place to anyone!!!
- Christy (1/5): Would not stay here again! - ! It had locks. So that's a plus. And the air conditioner worked. Too many stragglers outside. Drunks all over the place. A prostitute in the parking lot. Plugs were hardwired to air conditioner and TV. No outlets. Holes in door. Smoke alarm wires were hanging out of the wall with no smoke alarm. Wore shoes the entire time. Was not going barefoot. Was not using the shower either. Will never stay there again.
- Becky (1/5): Ugh! - 🤮 nasty, horrible, disgusting. Surprised it is even open. Didn’t even get out of the car. Not booking ever again.
- Kara (10/5): - Nothing
- Jennifer (2/5): - It was awful. There was roaches in the room. People outside all around the parking lot. There was bullet holes in the walls. It did not seem like a safe place to stay. I was scared that I would not have a car when I woke up the next morning. I left there and got another hotel room for the night.
- Marieliz (2/5): Horrible - First room no air conditioning second room had Roche's, fold flies it was terrible worst experience but good service with the desk person.

- Leblanc (1/5): Bad -
- James (2/5): - Nothing good about it
- Tashi (2/5): - Roaches greeted us at the door… we turned around and
- Jamie (4/5): - It is a horrible place full of roaches and the water will freeze you one minute and burn you the next. If you reserve a room and choose to pay at the property they will run your card in attempt to charge you before you ever arrive. Crooks!!
- Johnson (9/5): Superb -
- Senegal (1/5): Bad - Nothing The roaches the rust and occupants fighting and doing drugs outside
- Johnson (1/5): Bad -
- Kaydin (2/5): - Horrible shut it down.
- Kelley (2/5): - Filthy dirty. Cigarette burns in the sheets, hole in the wall, broken mirrors broken glass on the picture, nasty curtains, toilet wobbled super bad where I was afraid to use it. I was to afraid to walk back past the drug dealers to get a refund and call an uber. The worst place I have ever seen. On a bright note the shower was clean and the water was hot.
- Jeanee (2/5): - It was the worst motel Iv stood in. When I’m on the road working; (i drive a truck) i typically with stay in hotel with the doors on the outside and this was the nearest to the location i was working this by fair was the worst.. it had little roaches, super super dated.. it needs to be invest in.. it needs some TLC. The staff was nice but it’s just not a 0.
- brandon (4/5): - We have free Wi-Fi but signal strength is so low you can't even login. It's pointless unless you want to stand by the office to use it.
- Jose (2/5): - I got robbed after being there 3 hours going to get dinner in the parking lot
- Tanyas (2/5): - Hooker motel not safe for kids at all exposed wire and holes in the wall bath room water did not work roaches were all over!

- Michael (2/5): Extremely disappointed not safe - This place was disgusting!! A lamp without a shade, weird stains on the walls, sticky surfaces, a door that I could see daylight through. Not to mention the sex parties going on that I could hear. I was honestly scared and only slept 2hrs
- Corey (1/5): Bad -
- Lamoy (1/5): Very dissatisfied - Not recommended Bad location. Dirty facilities. Unprofessional staff.
- Crystal (1/5): Room had roaches, peeling paint on walls and ceiling. Shower didn’t work, something splattered all the ceiling and walls - Nothing! It’s nasty Nothing
- Gene (4/5): Was not pleased with facility - Na The loud noises and the other guest were very loud
- Woolridge (1/5): Bad -
- Dana (5/5): Passable - The housekeepers was very friendly and helpful. She made sure we had a decent room. The rooms are just like the pictures you see on the website. Just the environment makes you feel uncomfortable. People hanging outside and sleeping in the stairwells. Random people coming knocking on your door in the middle of the night.. but overall. You get wat you pay for.. if you need a place to stay for whatever reasons this is the place you can come to get you by for the meantime.. Addict's sleeping in the stairwell and doing drugs. Strange people knocking on the door.
- Bailey (4/5): Disappointing - Roaches
- Stevenson (1/5): Bad - Nothing!! It smelled like pee on the outside as you walk upward, the room was bad n disgusting….had dog hair in the refrigerator, microwave and bed….It was horrible! Not to mention waking up to bout 7 police cars outside🤦🏾♀️ even though the price was 47.00 they should be run a better business wasn’t it Ben worth 47.00 to be honest
- Jeremy (1/5): Bad - Nothing Everything
- Alisha (2/5): - I requested a handicapped room and was given a regular room. My husband fell twice in shower because there was no hand rails or mat. Tub was very slippery. When I went to front to ask for more towels I was told that they did have access to the towels and house keeping was gone. There was mold all over the walls and ceiling. The toilet was unsafe. There was roaches crawling everywhere
- Alesha (10/5): Exceptional -
