Negative Reviews

negative:

Not weather-proof

Multiple guests lodged complaints at this hotel during bad weather. In cold months, the heaters frequently did not function. To make things worse, the roof is leaky, so in heavy rain the place is littered with buckets.

negative:

No Wi-Fi to speak of

Many disappointed reviewers had serious problems with the motel's Wi-Fi speeds. People across several review sites said that the Wi-Fi in their rooms operated too slowly to be in any way useful. This made trip planning very difficult for a good amount of people.

negative:

No air conditioning

One of the most consistent complaints made by frustrated reviewers was that the air conditioning at this hotel is not functional. To make matters worse, the mosquitos in summer can be quite intense, so guests looking to air out their rooms had to choose between bug bites and sweaty nights.
