I'd suggest people don't make mistake I made and cross-reference reviews on Expedia with the ones on google-maps. Overall, the place looks rundown, but that would not be a big deal if not for the condition of the bed linens, featuring noticeable stains and cigarette burns. Due to these cleanliness issues, we choose not to stay in that place overnight.

Interesting

This particular motel is actually for sale, and its condition is definitely on a downward trajectory. It is in dire need of deep cleaning and maintenance upgrades. The owner was friendly, as well as other staff, and guests, but the overall quality of the building was poor. They have a restaurant advertised on the website, but is no longer functioning. They do have a bar, but we do not drink alcohol and never patronized the facility. It was quiet, which we appreciated, and the air conditioner was working, thank goodness. It ran no stop the whole time we were there. The outside temperature was high, and our room faced south. The quality of the linens was average, but the pillows themselves were in dire need of cleaning, or replacing. The curtains over the windows sufficed, but again, needed cleaning and repair. The carpet also needed to be cleaned. The towels provided were of good quality. There was only one small mirror in bathroom, which was disappointing. We were in the area for a wedding, but were unable to view ourselves in a full length mirror. I would have appreciated one in the room. The room itself was a good size, so no complaints there. There is no elevator and our room was on the second floor. My husband and I each had to make two trips up and down the stairs, to unload our belongings, and then again when we vacated. The stairs to the second floor were curved and carpeted, extremely dirty, and the step depth was not adequate for safety reasons.

Very old and dirty. Smells funny. First room we were in the bed collapsed cause a leg broke off and so we moved to a second room. The shower head was falling off in this bathroom and the taps dripped all night long.
