Rough night… very little rest…
Well…. It is a cheap motel… we kinda didn’t have high expectations when we drove up. The property itself looks extremely 👎. But when we actually went in the room. It was surprisingly clean and smelled of either bleach or some other cleaning products. We didn’t shower as it looked to have like rust stains all along the tub edge… basically it was a place to lay down our head for the night to continue or trip further south. The bed was awful for my preference. Literally hard as a rock, pillows dissappeared as soon as your head layed upon it.

Filthy bathroom
Our bathroom was dirty. The bathtub wasn't cleaned. There was dried fesus between the floor and the wall. We didn't even take a shower because it was disgusting. I have never given a bad review but this warrants one. I was supposed to get a 10% discount, which wasn't enough, but I never received it.

For the room it was pretty decent, not excellent but it definitely wasn’t disgusting. Had a very nice set up to be honest, last time I went there were almost clear boot tracks on the floor though and the tub was dirty. A bit high for pricing yet it is near the college so I don’t blame them!
