Room was ok. There was a layer of dust on the vent in the bathroom and what looked like caulk in the toilet seat. The hallway reeked of pot, was poorly lit and dingy. A $50.00 cash deposited was required at check in

Hello my name is Lisa, My stay was going good until roaches started coming out of of no where. I will never stay there again.
It took three tries to find a room with a working AC unit. If able, one may want to spend more for a less desperation-level accommodation. The marginally functional rooms provide relief when compared to the stereotypically low-income hallway and exterior experience, reminiscent of “The Projects.” If you gotta stay here, I’m sorry. Life is hard.
I really don't know were to start other than the beginning. I had chosen to pay at the hotel upon arrival but yet somehow my card that I used to reserve it that I did not want to use to pay for it was charged. Also at check-in we were required to provide a $50 cash deposit. Luckily I had it on me or I would have had to use the ATM and be charged fees. The pillows were thinner than most comforters. On the second night our AC went out the staff did put us in a new room but it took checking out 7 rooms that all had issues most with ACs that did not work. We finally settled for a room that I had to leave the lid of the toilet tank to push down on the float to get the tank to fill after flushing.
I asked for Absolutely no smoke room and I got it. Room was splendidly clean utilities in there in perfect working order. Lobby is clean. The Third party operable soft drinks dispenser, needs to be better supervised. It sucked up my bills gave me change but no drinks. In totality the motel has my thumb up 👍
The one thing I really liked is that there were no bed bugs. However, there is a pool, an outside pool. Our stay was well received and had great encounters with the staff. They were accommodating and our stay wasn't too bad. The room could have used some maintenance, the water pressure was a bit low. There was some fixtures missing and the bath tub was painted, therefore making it a bit slippery and while taking a shower, the paint would fall off. If just staying for an overnight trip, depending on your choice of bells and whistles, it's a good stay. If you plan on staying longer and are picky, it's not for you. It's in a great location for shopping and restaurants.
It was a place to sleep, nothing special. Room and hallways were pretty dingy with peeling paint throughout and on the walls and bathtub, and there were hairs on the bed.

Number of issues. Very dirty smells like dog and cat piss everywhere.The tvs might or might not work, that also includes the refrigerators. The lock on the doors might or might not work. Someone’s kid was playing behind the desk so the attendant had to tend to that instead of checking me in at a convenient time. Never a good experience after times of trying to give it a chance.
Complete trash. Every room I’ve ever had smelled of animals. Last one the paint was chipping out of the tub and walls. Smells like cat piss everywhere you walk and the doors to the outside are never locked fully and if they are your key can’t get you back inside. Very unsafe and smelled like cat piss
