Nice updated motel
Bruce, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Front office staff was pleasant. However the room had stained carpet, dirty windowsills and dirty corners of the bathroom floor. Bedding was clean. We noticed a few ants in the room late at night, we checked the rest of the room but couldn’t really find any more (also a bit hard to see them since the carpet is dark). In the morning however there were many more, even in our bed. I had also been bitten by something sometime during the night… There were also wasps in the roof outside of the room. Went to let the front office know about this in the morning, however it was closed (8am). Would not stay again.
