Yuck
It was so dirty. There was stains on all the sheets. There was black things in the bed i would wipe away and within 30 min would be back. I thought maybe bug poop even thoigh i didn't see any bugs. Holes in the walls. Sitting out in the parking lot was a old camper with someone living in it. It was so bad my husband had me get a different room somewhere else for my 2nd night.

The room pictures in Expedia must have been a room they fixed up, because the room we were in was questionable on if it was clean (possibly makeup on the bedspread), in the bathroom paint was peeling off the wall in large section, there was black looking mold in the shower, and the knob for the hot water in the shower fell off (if one likes cold showers). To close the window in the bath one of us walk around to the back of the motel to push it close while the other one stood on the toilet to lock it. The lock for the front window was a 1x1. The black out curtains had multiply small rips through out.

the room was so dusty, the phone had no number to call. the staff was okay but it smelled a lot like their incense. there wss no toilet paper, i had to buy one. there wss few amenities but even then they were hard to open like the shampoo/conditioner. the air vent was sooo dusty and had crumbs in it. it activated my allergies badly. the bed had a few stains on it. also there was still a broken RV in front of our room. you could also see outside through the bottom of the door. there was no additional locks which felt s little scary.
