The check in person was super sweet. The room itself could definitely use some better cleaning. There was smashed bugs on the wall and I had to keep wiping down the sink area because a bunch of ants kept coming. The walls a were dirty and there was a … white stain … on the bed. Since it was a king size, I slept on the other side of the bed.

This motel feels more like a two-star than a three-star. The room's furnishings are outdated, and the air conditioner is quite noisy.
