  : Location
  : Staff was rude and not helpful. The air-conditioner didn't work, and neither did the heater. Building smelled bad. Bathtub was visibly in disrepair

  : The check in was easy. Parking is free.
  : The room was disgusting. I usually stay in higher end hotels, but this was a sudden trip, so I booked it to fill a need (a need to sleep after a nearly 12 hour drive). The motel was ok at check in, but immediately I realized this was no Westin lol. After being warned 3 separate times to not smoke inside (I don’t smoke!!) I signed the paper and got my key. The room smelled like old wet dog. I ran the AC to try to get the smell to fade. The bed was clean and very comfortable, the pillows were awful. The TV is a 40” ehhh, and had no HBO, or means to put your Netflix, etc on it. Ok, that’s whatever, I had just driven 12 hours. But then I wanted to shower- the tile in the shower had mold. The tub was peeling from a shoddy paint job. The shower head is the hand held type from 1990, with poor water pressure and didn’t hang up right, so the water poured onto the back wall and to the floor, so I had to hold it. The sink had cigarette burns. The linoleum was peeling from the wall/floor. The bathroom door had deep gauges in it. There were holes in the wall with poorly applied plaster. The lamps didn’t work. The towels were worse than dollar store wash rags. The sink looked like it came from a jail. The carpet in the room was sticky to my feet so I wore shoes. The alarm clock was broken and from 1988. There were no tv channel guides, no welcome sign with check out time, no local restaurants to try/order in. The morning breakfast was disgusting coffee with no creamer or milk!!! The bananas were brown. Nothing else available. The lock on the door is a flimsy chain. I felt uncomfortable since I was right by the doors (room 102).

Disappointing

  : Good central location for us to visit both the redwood national forest and go to Eureka for the zoo
  : Bed sheets had stains on them, blankets had cigarette burns. We requested to have bedding traded out since we were there for 2 night. Once it was traded the new pillow had black mold on it. The breakfast was just bags of instant oatmeal and bananas.
