Here’s a cleaner, laid-back traveler version that still keeps your honesty:

Oh boy… we booked this motel based on the reviews—lots of “excellent” ratings and people saying how clean it was. That wasn’t quite our experience.
I will say, the woman at the front desk was great. She was kind and did her best to help us, which we really appreciated.
The place itself is very bare bones—definitely more of a last-resort type of stay. In the first room, the bed had been made, but the sheets clearly hadn’t been changed. There were stains and even hair in the bed. (I always check the bed first thing, and it’s honestly surprising how often this happens.)
We went back up, and she quickly moved us to another room. That one had clean sheets, but the AC/heat unit was so loud there’s no way we would’ve been able to sleep.
At that point, we decided not to stay. To their credit, they gave us a refund with no hassle.
Overall, I’m not trying to sound high-maintenance—it just didn’t meet basic expectations. This is definitely a place you’d only consider if you’re out of options… and even then, you might think twice.
