Office repeatedly gives room key to anyone. The office made a key for someone and they robbed my room of everything inside. Then when I brought it to there attention they did nothing about it and told me that she had done this multiple times to my room. After I told them to not give anyone my key especially this one person.

The toilet paper roll in our bathroom had spots of blood in it, 3 of the 4 lights above the mirror did not work, and there were holes in the bedding. The pillows on a queen size bed were the size of the throw pillows on my couch! There were a ton of weird objects stuck to the wall and what looked to be blood stains in the carpet. I will not be staying here again.

My review should be taken as merely a thought. Upon check in staff were very friendly. As soon as I entered my room I knew I could not stay there. I did immediately drive across the street and check in at the evergreen. I made no fuss with the staff as the condition is not up to them but rather the owner of the building. Affordable ✍ Pet friendly ✍ are definitely things to note. Comfortable and inviting and warm would not be the words I would use to describe.

The staff was very nice and didn’t make it difficult for me to get a refund for the night that I canceled. This motel is gross. It did not feel clean, there was dog poop all over the parking lot and nowhere with any decent grass to potty a dog except for right next to a busy road. I got a nonsmoking room, but upon entering it already smelled like cigarettes. This got worse through the night, so I suppose someone was smoking in an adjacent room or outside, and that was somehow getting into my room. The tub did not drain fully, the showerhead was not completely functional, and the beds were rock hard. It's cheap, so if you have to do it, it's probably fine, but this was a terrible experience and I would not recommend it to anyone.

The remote for the heating/cooling unit in room 221 needs a battery I think. I had to walk over to the unit to operate it. There was no TV remote at all that I could find. The curtain rod was broken so that the curtain sagged in the middle. It did cover the window, though. I was impressed with how clean everything was. The price was right.

I chose this place because it was close to where I was working that weekend and I knew I’d be tired. Wrong decision. One of the worst places I have stayed in my entire life and I travel every other weekend, so I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels over the last 10 yrs. I did not have a bad experience with the staff or anything like that, but when I opened the door to my room, the smell was awful, there was no refrigerator as promised, the whole place was really dingy and dirty. it smelled like somebody’s really bad foot odor (like someone’s arse exploded). I was lucky the a/c and heater worked because it was literally hanging out of the wall. The bed was literally only 6 inches thick and the spring coil mattress was very old, as soon as I rolled onto it, I sunk right through it to the wooden platform so I already knew it was going to be a very rough night of trying to sleep. I was exhausted, so I did actually fall asleep for a couple hours, but I would not stay here again for any amount of money, even if it was free.

I've stayed at this motel about a dozen times, and when things are good they are very good. Terrific room. Brilliant sheets. Smooth check-in and courteous check-out. They even asked my room preferences as I was checking in, which I appreciated. Happy to support such a solid, small business.

The staff were very accommodating and friendly. Even the breakfast was a little better than I’ve experienced at comparable hotels, however the rooms could be cleaned better. Bed was clean, bathroom was clean enough but a little more care to detail would be appreciated! Take the extra minutes to wipe the spots on the walls, the corners of the floor, etc

Room was actually clean but the sink was clogged and was never tended to even though we stayed 2 nights. Otherwise reasonably good except that it's right next to active train tracks with very loud trains that blare their horns as they pass through several times per night.

You definitely get what you pay for as far as cleanliness and conditions of the facilities. Hairs left in the bathroom, towels, poor water pressure, microwave still had the time of last use. Had to move the table to properly use the heater. TV remote was missing but staff was quick to get a new one. Train is VERY loud overnight but I’m a heavy sleeper so I could get past it. Conditions could be much worse for the price, but the rooms could definitely use a remodel.
