Toilet seat was loose, and the toilet itself was also loose and rocking. Wifi did not work well at all. I had to hotspot my phone. Pillows were not great, and the bed was fairly hard.

Oh wow, from the 50's bathroom with the toilet that moves to the horrid metal springs bed, to the paper-thin walls. Do not stay here. Worst $140 I ever spent. We heard strange noises all night, between random loud popping, cracking, people arguing, other rooms toilets flushing and people showering (when they dropped the soap it sounded like a ceramic bomb!) Just don't, don't stay here if ypu can avoid it.

I paid $263 for two nights at this motel, and it was a huge letdown for the price. The bathroom was in bad shape — the tub had multiple spots where the porcelain was chipped off, and there was a large dent in the middle, making it uneven and uncomfortable to stand on. The overall look gave off a dirty, neglected feeling. The bathroom lighting was also poor, with one bulb missing and another only half working. The heater and fan in the room barely worked, making it hard to get comfortable. For what they’re charging, basic things like working heat and clean, functional bathrooms should be guaranteed — but they weren’t. To make things worse, some random crackhead came knocking on my door in the middle of the night. I told her to screw off, but she kept coming back. When I called the hotel about it, they said they would check the cameras but weren’t able to actually come out or do anything about it. I felt unsafe and completely unsupported. Overall, this place is overpriced, poorly maintained, and not secure. I would not stay here again or recommend it to anyone until serious improvements are made.

Satisfactory for the price.

The room was ok, had cable tv, a microwave and mini fridge. Room temperature was fine which was good as there was only one thing blanket provided. No coffee maker in the room.
