Meh bathroom

It wasn't the worst place I've stayed. But the shower leaked all over the bathroom floor, the tub took forever to drain, and the bathroom light took a few minutes to turn on. Also when the vent was turned on in the bathroom, we could smell weed coming from somewhere (speculated the floor above). The walls are very thin so bring earplugs or something.

We should have reserved a handicapped room on first floor. We asked for one when we got there but couldn’t get one. My wife and I both have bad knees and the VERY STEEP STAIRS were hard to manage!

Worst Motel/Hotel we have ever stayed at. Walls are thin and could hear every noise, and people just talking. We couldnt go to sleep until 3am due to all of the LOUD noise. Management not concerned. We arrived and Police were there investigating a crime, should have turned around and run. Dirty towels, Broken smoke detector.

The location was great for a last minute trip. Our stay was short and the motel staff were very accommodating and polite. The people above us were a bit noisy but overall it was comfortable.

Would not book here again. We actually checked in & did not stay. The front desk did issue a full refund. The room smelled musty & smoky. There were long black hairs on the shower towels. I don't recommend.

We had to work the festival so we were trying to book the cheapest hotel in town. the hotel looks pretty from the outside, but in the inside we had a few little friends in the ceiling aka bugs 😍 and our door was reallly difficult to shut. My friend also found hair on her the pillows when none of us laid on or touched the sheets leading us to believe they didn’t wash them.
