A rare experience in the motel stay, the owner and his staff are extremely pleasant and accommodating. The rooms are super clean. I will definitely be back.
Staff is friendly, helpful and accommodating. Housekeeping is on point. Normally a quiet environment and it is convenient and accessible to shopping, freeway access and plenty of restaurants.
Great price, the room was clean and quiet at night. Very helpful staff
No complaints at ALL!!! Very pleasant Receptionist. Not one roach or bedbug! Very clean. Smells good. Everything is in good working condition. Great price. Definitely will be staying here again!
I got a room for the night at this particular occasion just so I can have a little peace and quiet away from family and friends and was pleasantly surprised the price was very nice and room was very clean and bigger than I had expected. I've read it this place five stars because the price was great and the room was great LOL and the front desk attendant was absolutely wonderful definitely would consider staying here again
Man people are to picky. I havent seen one roach. Room was clean and it was cheaper than anywhere else. Staff was also friendly. And quick. Building is a little old sure. But for the price I don't have any complaints
I have been hearing since July 2024 and have had a great experience the whole time. The manager, Mr. Dickson, and all of his staff have been very pleasant, friendly, treated me like family, and have been here for me to make sure my stay here has been amazing. Some people say it's a drug and roach motel, but I haven't seen a roach in my room the whole time and the manager as his staff makes sure this place stays cleaned and family oriented. You don't have to take my word for it , come and see for yourself.
Its cheap. You get what you pay for. Lots of people complain about roaches. Everywhere has them in the low country. This place is just honest. I didn't see any bed bugs when i looked . The carpet is oddly sticky and the bathtubs are pretty dirty. But I've lived in apartments worse than this, so it didn't bug me.
