Liked: Cleanliness
As the name implies, this is a basic economy motel. The room was generally clean except the floor was dirty. The nice part is it is a hard floor versus carpet. The bed was comfy and clean as were the bathroom and towels. TV and HVAC worked great. Plenty of free parking and we felt generally safe. Nice location to check out the Shawnee Forest sights.

The couple who owns it were very welcoming and check in was smooth. We could tell that they have made a lot of upgrades/renovation and everything was clean. The only complaint was the air-conditioning struggled to keep the room very cool even at max all night. To be fair the heat index was over 100° during the day!

Target practice

Better than being homeless, however the roaches were just target practice. Other than that the slots were down majority of the time kinda a bummer. Not a horrible experience though lol

The room was great! The Staff was terrible! I asked the manager if he could ask his wife to stop calling me "honey" and he made an unbelievable issue out of this! I am going through a divorce and I made him aware of this and asked him to ask his wife to stop calling ne "honey"! And he made an unbelievable issue out of this! Obviously, they are not very educated and do not understand why this might be offensive. "I would NOT RECOMMEND this hotel" under any circumstances!!!

Seems to be a lot of sketchy looking people hanging around. Not sure why the police showed up at about 8:30pm but that didn’t feel right. We ended up driving to a hiking trail and stayed in our van and just used the room to hang out in the heat and take a shower.

A cockroach appeared in the shower. Washed it down the drain but it kept returning. Found a second (dead) roach on the floor next to the bed. When we used all the bath towels on the second day of our stay, received one more towel from the front desk but only after considerable back and forth with staff reluctant to provide it (we were expected to keep using the same towels).

Don't stay here

started out seeing a mouse just outside the check in area should of known then to go somewhere else. There were bugs in the room mostly dead ones so housecleaning needs to look closer than they did to clean the room. Live roach at one point major yuck! Towels were small and cheap for sure. Left to go out half the day came back to the fact they came in to turn down the beds with all our stuff in the room plus they opened the drapes half way as this is there signal to finish cleaing something else in the room. Was not happy that people walking by could see we had things out in our room not a good idea plus they took the towels and had not replaced them! Manager said we should of put the sign out on our doors Well there wasn't a sign to do that! So gave us one too late at that point! Would not stay here again --- just a Motel if you want one of those to stay at NO THANK YOU!
