Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
We liked the location of the hotel and size of the room we booked. What we didnt like was the left over hair in the shower, few amenities, and the amount of dirt on our feet after walking a few minutes.
Initially, from pictures and the name of the motel, I thought this place was good. Upon arrival, the main lobby was locked up. I rang a doorbell and had to talk to a receptionist through a crack of a sliding drawer. The room floors and beds were very clean, credit to them on that. The thing that terrified me the most were the towels. They left a very nasty, with nasty stains towel on the edge of the bathtub. I started inspecting clean towels and saw stains from before that were washed, but the stains remained. That grossed me out. When I turned the water in the shower, there were some floaties in the bathtub that I had to clean. Toilet made a weird noise as the water would fill up. Small TV was mounted across the room, not user friendly because it was 15 feet away. Cheap beds with spring board. VERY loud AC. I could hear people next door having a casual conversation. Sketchy people sitting in the parking lot. I was getting looks like I stepped into a bad neighborhood. No shampoo was given, I had to ask for it at the main office through the crack of the drawer again. I would never stay there ever again and would not recommend staying over night especially if you have children. Sorry if I offended anyone with my review, but this was my experience.
The staff was plain rude to me and my gf and I stayed for one night and they later tryed to charge my card more for what I had paid online and then I was at work and I get a call from my gf saying the staff walked in on her changing that really upset me they just barged in and she said give me a moment then he said ok and walked right in while she was naked
The room poorly maintained. Hair in the bathtub and sink. Floor dirty. Towels grungy. No wash cloths. No hand towels. No soap. TV doesn't work right/blurry. I will never stay there again
They talked to us through a tiny drawer we couldn't really hear them, the room was clean but not all the way there was someone's old razor on the shelf. The floor was cracking. I saw roaches when we were leaving a day early. The beds were stained and uncomfortable and the pillows were atrocious.
Roaches, toilet over flowed when you got a shower. Cigarette holes burned in blankets, pillows ripped stains on blankets. Microwave was filthy. Doors to vacant rooms were left open so cats were coming in and out of rooms. Front desk was very rude. Day before leaving I called to verify reservation and front desk clerk hung up on me 3 times.
Room not maintained well. Under sink was gross, appeared to mold with rotting wood. No wash cloths, no hand towels. 4 grundgy bath towels. My feet got dirty/black walking on the floor without shoes on. The television did not work well--4 inch darkened area in the middle and what could be seen was blurry or the color was off. No access to the lobby even during the daytime and it is very hot in south Texas. Cloth seats on the 2 chairs were nasty-- I would not sit on them fully clothed. The windows appeared upgraded and the A.C. worked that all that I could say nice about this place. I will NEVER stay there again.

Del servicio
The entire room was dirty stains in the pillows and roaches in the tub tables fridge floor disgusting dirty. I literally left and booked somewhere else. Not like the pictures the have in Expedia.
Needed a room for last minute memorial service for relative. Got this because price was lowest. Reserved a smoking room with double beds. When we got there they didn't have any smoking rooms available. Room had a half smoked cigarette above bathroom mirror. Beds were rockhard and toilet wasn't very clean. No mini fridge or microwave in room.
This place was disgusting. Roaches everywhere. I had no choice but to sleep there because I was so tired from working two days straight at the fire dept. I was woken up in the middle of the night by a roach crawling on me. The front desk talked to me through a little window and I could barley hear him. He wouldn’t speak up and he made me give him my credit card thru a little hole. I came into my room with a wet towel in the floor and when I moved it a family of roaches crawled out. This place truly sucked.
The overall cleanliness was very poor bed sheets were stained and had burn holes there was smell of cigarettes sinks were also stained trashed under beds pillows were stained worst motel ive ever been to
