Would not recommend at all

Where to start, maybe the sketchy atm that has a garbage bag flapping from the top of it, or the nightlife of the people at the hotel. Bugs in the hotel rooms. Dirty walls and dirty stained with things i don't want to know curtains. Only good thing is it is a very short walk to knotts.

We will never rent from this motel again when we first got into the room we looked in the refrigerator and there was moldy bread and food in it and when we left in the microwave it was literally covered in food. They came and cleaned it and in the middle of the night when we woke up there was roaches everywhere I do not recommend. And there was just a bed cover and a sheet for a blanket

Will return again

I didnt expect it to be as roomy as it was which was great loved it. Front desk was great friendly and quick. Only thing was that there was small roaches in the room but it wasnt that a big deal but it kinda was like eww gross but got over it. Only thing that was bad was the mattress was uncomfortably and the separate room needed a ac because it got hot in there but over all it was a good stay i didnt expect it.

Dirty room

In general, the room was gross! We cleaned it to get it at least decent enough to stay in. Room service was done only once but maybe that was a good thing? Based on our experience I wouldn't want to stay there again. But at least the staff was friendly - they're probably overworked and underpaid by the owner.

LOOK AT GOOGLE REVIEWS BEFORE BOOKING WITH THIS APP. The room looked like it had been lived in. Was in an absolutely disgusting unkept room. There were broken light fixture and half the lights in the room didnt work. the doors lock was broken. The drawers were broken. Paint chipped from walls, drawings on the door and chairs, the curtains were dirty and ripped, the room was just awful! It had a horrible experience. 0/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND
Lights not working, dirty and ripped lamp covers and broken on the bottom
Turned around drawer due to it being broken on the other side or not even having the drawers to put in it
Door has drawing on it and a patched hole in the wall and door being dirty

Be aware. They require a $100 CASH deposit for incidentals which you receive back when you leave, They will not place it on your card like most hotels.In fact they have a high fee ATM outside their office door should you not have the cash. Room cleanliness was adequate.

Rooms were dirty, floors needed to be mopped walls dirty from floor half way up. Beds ok, clean linen every day but overall condition was dirty and unkept. My friend's room had roach's. And her 2 year old twins feet and knees were black from crawling on the floor in less then 5 minutes. So not very happy. I used to go there 25 years ago was always clean. Now management doesn't seem to care.

pretty dirty

I just think this hotel could be okay with extra attention to cleaning and pest control. There were still crackers and crumbs on the floor when we checked in. My kids were walking bare footed in the room and just walking on the floors made their feet black on the bottom. I did smash one cockroach in the sink area
