This place we stayed at for a concert was disgusting. My daughter booked it and it's my fault for not looking into this. Our bathroom smelled like puke and their was a film all over the sink. I called the day we headed there and was told I could get a cot for 15.00. She never relayed the message so needless to say we had no cot for us.

I understand inflation for the days when concerts are in town, but there is NO WAY this hotel should have gotten away with charging us $250 /night. The room was so dirty, the furniture was broken and the door to outside was fully broken so it never locked and was open at all hours of the day/night which was so unsafe. The property smelled of pee and weed so terribly it burned our eyes. We tried to find another place to stay but everywhere was already booked. We slept with our clothes on. It was that bad.

We found a used towel on the rack behind the door. A dirty facecloth under the sink vanity, and pubic hair on our bathroom wall. The carpet was filthy, the halls smelled of weed. All for $370 a night, because there was a concert in town.

I booked a room here for only one night. Safe to say that’s all we needed to get the full experience. We pulled up to the motel - the state of the outside is spooky, gross, and rundown. Checked in fine although other people around us didn’t seem to be having the same experience. The hallways smelled of weed, musty alcohol and beer, animal pee, and just over all rotten stench. We entered the room to see stained carpet, crud all along the walls and floor boards. The lock on the door was busted off, indicating that it had been kicked in at some point. The bathroom smelled very musty and there were mysterious hairs all over. The towels seemed clean enough but again, smelled rancid. There was a hole punched in the bathroom door as well. We didn’t even try to investigate the coffee maker, fridge, or microwave so we have no further input on the appliances. The were a decent amount of guests there that seemed to be living there long term. I would not recommend being outside at night, or in the hall - there were many suspicious people that I would not want to cross paths with again. Barely slept because there was people yelling all night and coming in and out of the of their rooms nonstop. The nights sleep was also particularly awful due to the smell. I had to sleep with my face covered. Never in my life has a room smelled so bad that I could not sleep. The doors that lead to the hallway never locked as well. The card keys for our room barely worked, the one did not work at all.

Front desk clerk was probably the best part of this Motel, she was very friendly. After that everything was down hill. Room at first glance looked clean but after stripping the bed, finding the white sheets stained with who knows what, the mattress protector looking like it was peed on - we opted to go to target by Lysol spray and all new bedding , along with hand soap. After showering, then walking in the carpeted in bare feet we learned real quick to wear your shoes in the room as our feet turned black from the carpets within 30 minutes. The back side entrance was zip tied so anyone could access without a key fob. Pluses … the AC was nice and cold.
