The facility was, and this was undisclosed at booking or check-in, under construction. They kept it up throughout the night, and we got sheit sleep. This was beyond the pale, and a complete let down.
Sleeping would have been nice, which would have been possible w/o the construction.

The desk attendant was helpful and friendly
Mold in the shower, around the mop boards and bottom of toilet. Bathroom fan didn't have a cover and was filthy. Light above sink barely had any light due to bulbs being out.

Good location, quiet, pretty close to food, shopping , etc.
Staff was hard to find and get in touch with if needed. Don’t try to check in before 3PM you won’t find anyone and will be disenchanted like I was initially.

I appreciated the elevator and the luggage carts, and a very friendly staff. I also appreciate the motorcycle parking right up front by the building.
All the washing machines were broken. There was a lot of construction material, and the place seems to be under rehab and it was starting to fall apart.

Nothing is special about the hotel
Starting with the restroom was dirty. The hotel looks rundown. Will not come back ever.

Room wasn't ready when I tried to check in at 4:00 PM.
Room only had the ceiling light at entryway. No lamps on side table. No other lighting. Go to check out. No one is there. Push a button on the counter twice but no response. Note on counter gave a phone number to call because the check out person was helping elsewhere. Call the number and no answer.

Absolutely Nothing
The room was disgustingly dirty with body fluids on the toilet and seat, mold issues, dust like it hasn't been cleaned in years, lose bathroom tile caked with hair, smelled of sewer gases, not room for the entire list.

The price
The room was to bare no lights except for one overhead, no individual lights by the beds. Have a picture of the smoke detector the cover was open that showed no battery. Desk littered/piled in the hallway. Old sheets had burn marks on them
5.0
The front desk person was very nice and helpful
It is currently being remodeled so it was stuff stacked up everywhere. The toilet seat in the bathroom was broken. The floors in the room were not clean. There were no lamps inside of the room.

The ONLY good thing was our bedsheets & restrooms were very clean.
Place looked horrible, the front desk person was AWAY for over 15 minutes so me and 6 other customers had to stand there until he finally returned. Breakfast was HORRIBLE, no options for vegans or keto diets.
2.0
Staff was polite and the breakfast was reasonable.
The room was really dirty... They were remodeling the room below me so I had to listen to the sound of power tools all day.
Flooring was cheap laminate that was separating and warped. Lots of dust accumulation in the cracks that would become airborne as soon as you stepped foot in the room.
3.0
Great location.
Not clean and smelled like cigarettes.
4.0
The waffle at breakfast were nice. The place was fairly clean.
Many of the amenities were cheap, broken, or missing. The hair dryer didn’t work, the fan in the bathroom was way too loud, the “blankets” were like slippery bandage material and would constantly slide off the bed, and the coffee was awful, to name a few things.
5.0
The price was very affordable. There were no bed bugs. Really close to the mall and interstate. My car didn't get broken into. Probably because the staff is watching the parking lot like a hawk trying to charge people 6 times the price of one night stay for smoking Marijuana on the property.
The place stunk really bad from the room to the hallway. The place needs renovations done by professionals. Seems like the owners do it themselves with no experience. Sloppy finishes. Looks as if half of the hotel lives there. Shady looking group of people. Every one except the maid was not friendly. I thought the bed sheets were window shades how thin they were. The bathroom was not pleasing to the eye. Didn't really want to wash there. You would definitely feel safe carrying your firearm.

After the guest stayed, I called to make sure the room didn't have any damages and the staff was friendly and helpful
I didn't stay myself, I actually bought the room for someone. The only issue was I called prior to inform the Front desk I was purchasing the room for somebody else, and I wanted to make sure he wasn't gonna have any issues and I'm not staying in the room. However, I got a call from the guest who was staying there that they would not let him check in. I had to explain the situation once again that I would not be there and that I would be paying for the room. After that, it was OK. I just didn't like the fact that I had to explain myself again when the situation should have been smooth without any hiccups.

Convenient location
Desk staff was not available in the evening. The pillows were foam and too large and uncomfortable; noisy neighbor. I left a shave in my room and 3 days later called, and even returned to the motel to be told they didn't have it, but I am convinced they didn't bother to search.
