Room needed renovation. Tiles broken on the floor. Key swipe very difficult to open door. Had to employ staff to open. Property a mess! Should be reported. I have found in my travels that ownership of Indian nature are unkempt and properties very sloppy and poorly maintained. Steven Kretser

We asked for a non-smoking room and had a room that smelled cigarettes heavily. We had to argue to have another room. Second room still smelled like cigarettes, but way less than the other one. We were placed in below a room where people had sex all night and other people kept running on the second balcony. Floor was dirty, we found popcorn, the nightstand was broken and on the floor. Bathroom was macabre, we didn't even tried to take a shower as it was daunting. The bathroom door couldn't be locked. Don't forget to put on the heater otherwise you're gonna be cold all night, we learned from our mistakes and put it on our second night. We didn't leave anything in the room as it didn't feel safe. When we came back on our second night at around 2am, our room card didn't work. Then we had to call the Motel, so the personel could give us another card that didn't work and then he tried with his master and didn't work at first, but then did. We left as soon as we could on the following morning. Pros : cheap, cheap cheap. Cons : everything else

Staff at check-in was great. The room was clean and smelled fresh. The toilet seat didn’t fit the toilet and handle to flush was broken. There was an outdoor window in the bathroom with a piece of wood for “security”. The location of the motel says “airport”. We arrived late at about 10:30 and many unsavory characters were outside on phones, taking loudly, drinking alcohol. While my husband took our dogs out to pee, he saw prostitutes enter the premises. Several times in the night, we were woke up by loud voices. We slept with a knife on the nightstand. Upon checkout, the police were at the front desk asking the manager about some residents of the hotel and looking at security footage, confirming our suspicions of unsavory characters. Again, hotel staff was great. Conditions of property need major work and the characters residing there are conducting criminal activities. I would advise booking elsewhere in the area.
