I was more than apprehensive about staying here as the parking lot was full of, what looked to me, rough looking juveniles (maybe older). The woman at the front desk was very helpful and assured me that it was safe. I was afraid that Expedia would not refund my prepaid rent, so I stayed. If I were Expedia, I would do a site survey some evening after nine. You may choose to eliminate this property. The accommodations were "spartan" at best.

This place was a life saver after sitting in traffic over 6 hours. But it was poor quality, people hanging out all over the place. TV did not work, I saw a roach, and the linen was dirty(thank god I brought my hotel travel kit with sheets and pillowcases). I woke sat 7:30am well before 11am checkout & on the road again. This was the only place available due to the 15 interstate being shutdown due to a chemical spill.

We didn't know it was a residential motel. The clerk, a nice little elderly lady had to unlock the door from the outside to let us in. The water didn't work when we arrived but was later corrected. A stranger just opened our door while we were settling in. The TV remote didn't work and then we saw a roach. It was hard to sleep due to all the characters walking around and in and out of rooms all night.
