Hands down the filthiest motel I've ever stayed in, and I'm a purveyor of cheap motels. 1) Moldy something under the microwave plate 2) Holes (cigarette burns?) in the sheets 3) Crazies blasting bass in their cars at 5am for 45 mins 4) luke warm shower 5) a tiny bar of soap, no shampoo 6) dust and dirt and grime on most surfaces. 7) Wifi network down and nobody at the front desk for hours after 10pm The key and heater worked at least.

Room wreaked of bleach. Bathroom was discusting - didn’t use anything but the toilet once. Sheets we stained. Parking lot was filled with all kinds of loud people all night who look to be displaced or homeless. Was worried to leave my car unattended. Would not recommend to stay here.

Upon arriving to the Safari inn, the guy at the front desk was a nice guy. However, after checking in and getting my key card, I noticed a lot of sketchy looking characters outside Drinking and smoking in the parking lot. Not too worried, but after opening the door to the room at looking at the condition of the room I was in total disbelief. The mattress smelled and the blankets and sheets had holes and think black stains on them. I returned to the lobby to tell the guy at the front desk that I do not accept the room. I asked for a refund, because I did not accept the conditions of the room. The man at the front desk replied that I had to go through the 3rd party service to get my money back. I would not recommend this place to anybody. I think they were cutting a lot of corners and not a lot of quality control. But if you want to feel like you're in a 3rd world county, then go ahead and check it out.
