2 days before the check-in, the hotel called me to say they are cancelling the reservation because Expedia over booked their hotel. We had to cancel the trip itself because all other hotels were booked / overly expensive by then.

Great spot but not good for customer service, there was rarely anyone at the desk and I didn’t get an answer when I called the number on the note they had on the locked door that said “call if needed” but, great location and great room!!

The property really needs some TLC, and cleaning. The rooms have been smoked in, so masked with an air fresher which doesn't do any good only adds to a very very unpleasant order...

This was the worst hotel experience I've had. There were bugs in the room. The bathroom was filthy and had mold in the shower. The manager was not helpful and walked around with food stains on his shirt. When I asked him questions I couldn't understand a word he said. I would never recommend this hotel.

the place looks good from the outside, but don't let that fool you, have a look at your room before you take it. super outdated, peeling paint, 1960's air-conditioner that couldn't cool a bathroom nevermind the whole room, dirty hand prints on pretty much all the walls. Arrived 5 pm, opened door to 45 C blast furnace, the room reached 25 by 430 am just in time for us to leave, with no sleep. Would not stay there again even if they paid me.

Filthy room with old food on sheets, counters and wall. Promised a refund as we had to find different hotel for the night. Refund did not happen. Went through Expedia and Motel refused the promised refund. Disgusting.

Schell Motel cancelled my reservation via a text message two hours AFTER check-in time (I hadn't arrived yet), saying they were overbooked and blamed Expedia. I was left having to find alternative accommodation which resulted in me being out of pocket. When I called Schell Motel they offered no further explanation or alternatives or any support in finding a different place to stay.

The deluxe room is very spacious but so run down with a broken closet door, 2 knobs missing, precarious ceiling fan with a bare bulb. The light flicked in and off in the double bed room and some broken blinds. It was so run down but actually completely clean. The pool was dirty and some guests decided to get to the equipment and cleaned it but also put chemicals in and openly said that the test called corn10 and she put 15. The area is very loud. We did enjoy the walk downtown. And it was actually really clean.

NOT TRUSTWORTHY. I booked a room over a month in advance and paid upfront. The night of my stay, not long before I was going to check in, the motel text me that they overbooked and couldn’t accommodate me. I had to find another motel last minute and pay double. The motel ignored my texts and calls and still have not refunded my money. Do not book here. They hardly apologized and inconvenienced me greatly.

I loved the area, it's convenient. The creek is beautiful with the sound through the window. The property has so much potential! The staff was so friendly, especially the young man at the front. It is definitely run down, and could use some updates. But the beds were comfy, it was warm and cozy! It was quiet and I had a great sleep!

The property manager was rude to me when we checked in. The manager was not there when we wanted to check out. They charged us a $300 damage deposit which I wanted to have refunded on checkout but the office was closed, and there was a lineup at the door for checkouts. The room in general was in very poor condition, microwave was damaged in the coffee pot did not work in the morning. The pool was nice though I'll give them that. Other than that very disappointing. I have to go back and figure out what happened with the damage deposit though.

The property was rundown, it’s an older property that has been minimally maintained. The manager said he would be back at 9 am for check out and we left at 9:30 and he still had. It showed up. There was a homeless encampment across the street, which made the stay a bit uneasy. The room was clean considering the age of the building. This place could definitely use some upkeep .

The owners are awesome and are working hard to better the motel. It is clean and close to everything. This was my second time staying here and I will return. The customer service was great but the customer experience was even better! I was remembered from 2 1/2 months ago and given an upgrade! That makes me want to return!!!

Fridge had ‘knuckle’ marks from someone punching it. Kitchen area was horrible. Booked for 2 queens and got 1 queen and a double. No bathroom fan but it did have a little window to open with no screen that bugs came in. Window air conditioner that someone could have slid open and came in our room. People living in the motel and smoking weed right outside our window. Deadbolt on bedroom door(strange) Woke up to a court baliff and 2 police officers escorting a tenant out with all her belongs while she was screaming profanities. All for 159$ a night?! Should have been 1/2 that price or less
