We were a bit put off when we first arrived by a large fellow sitting in the middle of the courtyard, seemingly just hanging out and staring at us. We saw that there was equipment and debris around, indicating the motel was being renovated. We didn't expect the room we were given to be in the middle of it! The room seemed unfinished, and the door didn't close properly leaving a gap with daylight clearly visible. They did give us a different room. It wasn't much better. The shower leaked, outlets sparked when plugged in, the bathroom window was difficult to operate, and it had to be used because there was no vent; its hole in the ceiling having been carelessly filled and painted over. Couple that with what seemed to be shady characters that came and went noisily all night and we quickly canceled our reservation to stay here when we passed through on our trip home.
