Staff was friendly. It’s the only nice thing I can say both faucets in the shower stayed on. There was poor work done in all across the bathroom. Train passed in the middle of the night.(not much you can do about that) parking wasn’t too bad but didn’t feel safe.

I had requested a room on first floor handicap access. My message was not answered and was accomodated on 2nd floor. A bit of challenge for me.

I've never been to a place that requires a cash deposit for a room. It seems like the reviews are stacked with fake reviews as the score of this facility does not match the experience. There is now way this property is a 7 out of 10.

I’ve unfortunately had to stay a few times, but they tell me a different deposit everytime. Sometimes it’s $20, sometimes it’s $40. Woman usually takes $20 and the man requires $40. Last time i spoke to the woman she was on facetime showing someone all of my information, i felt really uncomfortable. She noticed me looking, and she put the phone down. This time, that same window i saw her do that now is blocked off with a bunch of papers so you can’t see in. Location is kind of poor as far as who else is around. We had no soap or towels in our room, gentleman greeting us was rude. Toilet had leftovers from the previous person who stayed there, along with trash we found bedside in the drawers from previous guests as well. I honestly wouldn’t recommend this motel due to the several favors i’ve listed. Each time i give it a chance, it lets me down again. Bathrooms are moldy and old, AC makes a funky smell.
