Not worth the money spent what so ever, bed linens clean but stained, towels old and need to be replaced, refrig unplugged so it wasn’t cold for our food, , shower was scary not sure if mold in the very very old caulking? Just overall feeling of the bare minimum put into this place. I didn’t use the shower and slept wrapped in my own blanket, it was late and we had a long drive otherwise I would have left within minutes of arrival . Cute town and had a great breakfast at downtown cafe

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
At least the shower was hot and the bed was comfortable. No bugs. Just a bit tired and rundown. Price was worth the value.
The Good
It was located on a quiet road
The Bad
Room was run down reaked of smoke
Drywall was literally falling apart
Room was dirty, and felt neglected
They had you sign a paper that you weren't using the room for illegal purposes, which is never a good sign.
Walls were super thin could hear everyone talking.

Just passing through
Just needed a place to lay my head for the night. And it did the trick. TV, shower and a bed.
I wouldn't stay here again. Door knob was weak. No way i felt secure. A number of insects. Harmless but bothersome. Especially when in the bathroom. Needs serious renovation and furniture not from a second hand store or yard sale
This was a simple and cute room. I liked that it was one level and I could pull up to my room. Also the walls were cinder block and I couldn't hear any other lodgers. It was so quiet. The air-conditioning worked great and I was comfortable. The area surrounding is safe and I walked around town feeling safe. I'd like to stay here again. A little run down but clean.
Was a nasty place to stay. Our tv stopped working.

Dirty inside and out. Disgusting shower stall. The bed cover was covered with stains and many areas of burns. The chairs outside were broken up. The room smelled beyond what I could tolerate. They did offer another room, but bass on the lack of attention this outside convey and the inside. No thanks.
The room dirty, mattress poor, bedding poor,
Property was not clean with garbage on ground
Overall in very poor condition
I expected Norman Bates to appear
