WE LEFT EARLY BECAUSE...Rooms were dirty, breakfast served was honey buns and nutra grain bars (PRETTY SURE THEY WERE EXPIRED)no drinks. Attendant provided new room key without seeing ID to my husband only asked for last name with other people in lobby. Bed VERY VERY uncomfortable, burns in comforter and dirty sheets. New pillow provided when asked but had a USED bandaid stuck to it.

This should be 1 star motel : old, dirty and the bed; mattress on metal box very uncomfortable. Cigarette smells eventhough it says NO smoking! The false advertisement. There is No breakfast. Not even a dry cereal. The front Desk clerk talking about COVID.

The advertisement said breakfast. Their idea of breakfast consisted of honey bun, nutrigrain bar, Belvita snack pack, and coffee. They should elaborate about the breakfast, most of the guests were unhappy. They thought getting a hot breakfast (eggs, bacon, oatmeal etc)
