unless you prepaid like we did. this place has no redeeming value whatsoever. poorly run, dirty, run down and ill maintained. good lesson for: you get what you pay for, except @ $ 65.00 this was a rip.

I booked this motel online, when we reached there no one was at the front, no sign nothing. I waited for an hour than I left. I was very upset that I didn't get a room that I paid for. Terrible customer service. I DON'T recommend this dump to anyone. I never got my $ back and I ended up... More

We booked this motel online through Priceline. We were looking for a cheap place to stay for one night ($55+tax) near Monument Valley on a motocycle trip. We arrived into the place at 17.30 pm. Front desk clerk was out, paper on the door said "back in 15 minutes", 20 minutes it was, fine for me (same clerk still was... More

black mold and mildew in the shower (use some bleach, people!), bare lightbulb in the ceiling fixture, the one lamp in the room was broken, the mattress was old and hard like a rock, and was inside a bag so we couldn't check it for bed bugs, the wifi doesn't reach the rooms, the curtains are opaque so the lights...

Apart from the wooden coating of the walls, this place has no specific charm and could use a little bit of improvement. However, it's OK for a night. Finding a place to eat can be a problem, it seems - most places were closed at nine in the evening, so we ended up in Subway ;-( ...

After collecting the key from the hotel next door, we got into our room. The whole place needs demolition and rebuild. Some ancilliary room doors stand open and are full of junk. The rooms were big enough, but were carpeted with really thick pile carpets. You could sense the wildlife in there! Just not well maintained. Some serious investment is... More

I think this motel is trying hard to survive. It is old and dated, but the room was clean. I can't seem to get any cell service in the room, not even texting, and when I tried to use the landline, they said it isn't connected any more. Eeek! It is a decent place to sleep but don't expect ANY... More
