The room was clean and charming. My unit had a Paris theme. The bathroom was clean upon arrival. A very charming little motel (emphasis on little).
Drawbacks:
- Staff were not EVER present at the front desk. The door remained locked and I had to call if I needed anything. Including check in.
- Tight parking lot, even for my small car.
- The fridge was not clean in the kitchen. Not a big deal since I didn't use it but still gross.
That is it. Not bad but not great. Id give it a solid 6/10. I would recommend it over other motels in the area or if you are looking for a good deal, this is a good choice.
This is the worst place we've ever stayed. The comments that was left on Expedia giving it a great place, is not true. If I was Expedia I would not recommend it. Dirty, nothing like the picture, no remodel in our room as stated. Kitchenette was a joke. Regular cups and glasses out with no protective covers. Should be using throw away cups. Were did they clean them bathroom. Floor tile was dirty, cracked and loose. Could not get heater to work. I could go on. Just find a better place.
It's was pretty rundown. The toilet did not work . Had to flush it 5 times to get stuff to go down. The sewer backed up right outside our door under our car. The staff asked if we could move our car at 10pm so he could stop the overflow of sewage coming out flowing down the driveway. Don't like to complain about a place but it was not good. The bed was comfortable.
