The room was spacious. Sparsely equipped (pillows, towels, etc.) But I'm sure if we had been there more than 1 night, we could have asked for more. The AC in the bedroom was loud but kept it cool. Overall, decent spot not too far from the casinos for a good price.

The name does not reflect the quality of the hotel but the name of the road on which it is located. It is an old motel with a strong odor in the lobby and hallways. They have converted some rooms into two-room suites; however attention to detail was not taken. We requested a suite that had a stovetop and refrigerator, so we could eat in our room as we were staying two nights; unfortunately, there were no cooking utensils, plates, glasses, silverware, or soap. We could have brought our own if we knew that it was barebones. The bed was good, which means a lot. I appreciate their efforts to improve the motel, but the odor is remarkable.

This was a weird experience. The outside looks fine and the lobby seems adequate for a budget accommodation…. There was some weed smells lingering in various parts of the building but again…. Budget hotel…. What I found weird was the room had visible holes in all of the walls that were very poorly patched. The bathroom was very rough but obviously cleaned, just some unsightly staining at bottom of shower and baseboard. The bed was surprisingly okay and convincingly clean which is my main reason for not rating lower. The TV was incredibly old and not a smart tv so only regular random satellite TV. I never connected to the internet because of the overall vibe… I wasn’t really trusting that WIFI. The staff seemed nice enough but I can tell that the state of the hotel is due to not enough staff because the people at the front desk were the same people doing room service. To the owners…. It’s obvious a lot of your guests don’t respect your property. I would recommend charging a $100 fully refundable deposit for all guests and if they destroy your room keep that money to help pay for the repairs to be done right. I was happy I didn’t have to give one but others will take advantage and clearly have. I appreciate that the bed was clean and everything worked and it never felt unsafe despite some interesting looking character by the door at one point who I assume was just another guest.
