Worst stay ever

We tried to use the phone to call the office but the phone didn’t work. There was no dial tone so you couldn’t even call 911 if needed to. We also found big cockroaches. The steps to the second floor were just about completely broke. When we went to shower there was no hot water

Will not stay here again.

Very overpowering smell of incense throughout the hotel. Did not appear to be an elevator to 2nd floor. Stairs were very dirty. Mattress was uncomfortable and we were only given 2 very skinny pillows. Comforter was torn and sewn poorly. Batteries in tv remote were dead. There was only a side table on one side of the bed. Nobody was present to check us out at 8am. We rang for assistance and waited almost 10 minutes.

Clean low cost place to sleep

Basic place to sleep. I was staying overnight to go fishing next morning. Room was clean and all I needed. Price was very low. The people at the desk were friendly and helpful. Had coffee at 4:30 AM and got ice for my cooler.

Avoid at all costs

TL;DR: Filthy and run down. I understand that you get what you pay for, but this hotel was horrendous. First, I called a few days ahead and asked for an early check in (only by an hour, I needed to be somewhere by check in time). They looked up my reservation and said it wouldn't be a problem. When I arrived, they had no idea what I was talking about and that no rooms were available yet. Then they couldn’t get in touch with house keeping to check for a room. It took over 20 minutes to finally figure out what was going on and to check in. This is where I should mention that the lobby was locked and you had to communicate from a hallway through thick glass. I was also told at one point that dogs were not allowed in the lobby and was asked to wait outside. Very strange for a dog-friendly hotel. The room itself was filthy (see images). Dust and cobwebs in corners, dirty sheets (I slept on top), cigarette burns in the comforter, the bathtub didn’t drain, and the bed was stiff and old. The room and entire motel were just generally run down and in disrepair. I would have been fine with the inconvenience and bed at the price, but the filth and general lack of care for any part of the property was too much.
