Mold! Stay away!
The bathroom was exceptionally small and the mat in the tub was filthy and torn up. The mini frig had mold growing in it. The train ran through every 90 minutes or so and blew its horns. It is very clear that the owners do not care about this motel. I will NEVER stay there ever again!

Treated less than
It was horrible! Was charged extra when checking in. The first night we were put in a dirty room. The second day no hot water and toilet was stopped up. Paid 200 dollars for a dive motel.

Dirty, stale cigarette smell, homeless /drugies on facility grounds. Unkempt and broken down rooms. Microwave was molding when asked for new one they gave me a wash cloth and spray cleaner to clean it myself. Towels had holes and were more like rags that stunk of mold. bugs, ants and train right behind the rooms that runs at all hours of the night. Not worth the money or the risk of contracting some nasty disease.

This place was great! For the price, I expected very little. It was extremely late at night and I just needed sleep, so I wasn't concerned with amenities, but this was place quite nice for a budget place.
