Older property; doors open to outside, rooms are quite small. Moreover, while I realize that a motel can't select its clientele, this facility seems to have been chosen by a large number of certain motorcycle types. So if you like to be awakened at 2:00 am by inconsiderate LOUD Harleys, then this is the place for you.

There was a cup of noodles behind the door when we got in. The bathroom is falling apart(tub insert coming off the ceiling). Blow dryer didn’t work, but got it to when we removed it from the wall and out it in another outlet. Smells musty in the room.
