I enjoy tent camping occasionally, and I found myself wishing that I was doing just that while staying in this room. I would have much rather been sleeping outside, just not outside of this motel.
First, the motel is sketchy. The area is fine, but the motel is creepy. There are quite a few long term guests here, and there were random people roaming around outside until 4am. This is the only reason I didn’t end up sleeping in my van once I saw the condition of the room.
The room was horrendous. I’ve never honestly encountered a room that shows just how little the staff cares about this property. They do no more than change the sheets and call it good.
1.) Dirtiest carpets I’ve ever seen in a room. I literally wouldn’t even walk around without shoes. Even having socks on wasn’t enough!
2.) Hair everywhere- I could have gotten the room for free if I had $1 for every hair I found in the bed. Disgusting.
3.) Mold growing and visibly protruding from the wall underneath the air conditioner. There is obvious and significant water damage. The wall is wet and peeling, and there’s a giant spot of black mold on the wall that is easily visible from the moment you enter the room.
4.) I refused to turn on the AC because I was genuinely concerned about breathing in the air that came from that thing.. moldy, dusty, dirty, and downright disgusting.
5.) DIRTY UNDERWEAR- Someone else’s.. on the floor by the mini fridge
6.) The smell will make you sick (if the mold doesn’t)
RUN!
