    I am typically very chill and dont complain, but this motel was rough. The shower was barely larger than me which made showering very hard. The towels had holes in them and the pillow cases were stained. They oddly had the nightstand on the opposite side of the bed where the outlet was. I sleep with a cpap so i need a nightstand by an outlet, so i had to move it to accommodate this. But also, shouldnt the nightstand have an accompanying outlet? There was gum on the floor, one wash cloth. They had weird stains on the wall Again, i must stress this, i literally grew up in multiple motel 6's, so im accustomed to ratchet, but this one was hard to stay in for 3 nights.

    Although I’m sure they don’t care you should at the very least be as respectful and nice as your client. I have a saying I live my life by. I give what I get 2X If you’re nice then I’m twice as nice. If you’re disrespectful I’m twice as disrespectful. Do better.

    This was one of my greatest experience ever. The Sudio Inn employee was very gracious. Accommodated me in all ways. I had lost my ID and my fiancé booked me. It wa was an amazing experience and he was expeditious and I booked in very quickly. The gentleman was very accommodating. The room was clean. I like movies and I had enough of those. My favorites.

    Check in was okay, had some friends over and then left my room by 8pm to go to dinner. At 9:08pm the person who checked me in called me screaming that i had people coming in and out of my room all night and we were smoking because the smoke alarm was going off and he was going to call the police and hung up on me. I called him back multiple times to try to talk to him and he just kept telling me that i was lying to him and i needed to come by the office, so i wrapped up my burthday dinner early and went back to go grab my things and cancel my stay

    Inexpensive but I was not expecting it to be that dirty. Saw trash behind the toilet, mold on the ceiling in the shower and the mini fridge in my room had some old food from older guests. Price was really good so I guess you get what you paid for but I thought at least these basics would be taken care of.

    I had a great experience at this property. After reading some reviews of a more negative nature i think there must of been a simple miscommunication. I felt some of the negative points others made at first, but after getting a better understanding of the hosts and understanding fully why "weird" charges that seemed kinda scammy at first were going on. After staying another night or two my peespective completly changed. Would definetly stay again, rooms are recently remodeled and are very current, not just anorher cookie cutter motel 6 clone.the owners definetly take their investment in their property seriosly and it shows.

    We did not end up staying at the property. We left and rented a room elsewhere. The room looked as if they simply made the bed after the previous occupant left. It was not cleaned at all and the area is extremely unsafe. We were asked to move our car out of the parking stall directly in front of our room and to park away from the property against a fence. When we decided to leave I observed what I thought was a homeless man digging through the dumpster, however as we were leaving he walked into a room at the motel.

    Room is small but okay but it says “fridge, microwave, coffee in the room” - Unfortunately there’s no coffee/creamer in the room. Good for someone who is really tired, fatigued and sleepy. But then it seems people outside are watching movies loud in an open air. So how could someone sleep? The price is too high for this noisy room/place!

    I was very disappointed when I arrived to find out the person in the lobby did not speak English. I asked several questions and he had no clue what I was asking. He pointed to a plastic sheet regarding the wi-fi login info. It was wrong and on top of that, there was no wi-fi service the whole time I was there. Other guests were coming to the office complaining as well. The check-in area is so small you can only have one person fit in there at a time. I would never stay here again. The price should have been $45 for what you get. On top of that, they had done some painting in the room and the paint smell was so strong, I had to run the fan and leave all the windows open all night. It made me feel queasy and I kept waking up the fumes were so strong. Never again!

    Owner speaks a rare dialect of english (I believe) with is unintelligble. Room had a lingering odor. There was about a 1/4 inch of toilet paper with no spare roll. Not too noisy. I thought this was the Studio 6 version of Motel 6 when I booked it. OK for 1 night.
