Overall it’s so so, but very noisy, I can hear the noise from road through the wall the whole night, looks like no insulation at all. There is an AC on that wall, also possible that they didn’t seal it completely.

To continue: Lamp shades had stains on them. No light bulbs in two of them. When asked for clean towels was told just throw the used ones outside your door.

The location was fine. The staff was very helpful polite and nice. I thought I was in a 1950s motel with minor modifications. The room was nowhere near what the pictures on Expedia showed. I should say the pictures belied a clean fresh look which was not evident in the room.

The soft bed (mattress) The location was good Front desk personell was respectful, friendly and kind * Sheets on one bed were not clean, looked like old, dried mud stains on it * Walls were also not cleaned, muddy/yellowish marks on walls * Used washcloth/hand towel hanging on top of shower curtain * Shower curtain had dirty, muddy moldy stains on it, very unsanitary * For unknown reason, light bulbs were not screwed into (lamp) sockets, we thought the lights didn't work at first but tightened them in and they worked but was shimmery/shakey * A couple of the (clean/folded) towels had moldy stains on them * Two roaches were seen crawling on floor as soon as the lights were dimmed, we stepped on them and threw them in the trashcan * We wiped everything down with sanitized wipes, including remote control, lamps, tables, toilet, shower/bath, refrigerator, counter tops and chairs * Found dead roaches in (between) blankets, so just slept on top of cover blanket * Paid too much for this unsanitary room

Linens had burn holes in them; towels and wash clothes had deep stains in them. Refrigerator was turned on by the light switch and there was another light switch that the guest would need to turn on to get hot water for shower. Could not turn tv on or off with the remote, but instead had to turn tv on by switch on back of the tv affixed to the wall. The front clerk and repair person were very friendly. Coffee make was supplied to the room, but there was nothing to drink it out of. Room's carpet looked like it had not been cleaned for days. Did not find any bedbugs, thank goodness. Building is run down, and had I not been so tired, I would not have stayed here.

RUN! DO NOT STAY HERE! The absolute worst experience at a motel ever. Front desk person could not find reservation,threw my driver's license back at me. Then I pull up the reservation on my phone and the receptionist starts printing other people's reservations and asking if they are mine? (Not sure I would want other people seeing my info). None of them were. Then says we have to contact Expedia. The receptionist is disoriented, says he is exhausted, there are ants crawling at my feet. I sit down in the lobby to call Expedia and he asks me to leave so he can get some sleep. I go out and sit in my car. I ask for a call back from Expedia because the wait time is 40-60 minutes. As I sit in my car the police show up and park right in front of the lobby. A mom with a couple teenage girls get out of their car to talk to the police. I wait a few minutes and go check it out. The mom says she paid cash for a room and then was shown a dirty room with unmade beds, then the next room the master key works for staff, but he tells her that her key won't work. She says she doesn't feel safe and she would like a refund. He said no problem, but then only gave her $20, of the $100 that she paid. At this point I do not feel safe and decide not to stay here. Expedia's customer service was not good either. After I've waited 40 minutes they call me back and then I am on hold for another 45 minutes and there are no hotels available as this was over the 4th of July holiday.

This was the worst place I have ever stayed in. There was mold on the shower curtain and the pillow cases were dirty. We asked for new clean pillow cases and the replacements were dirty! In the middle of the night we spotted roaches and next morning woke up to bed bug bites! I do not recommend anyone stay here, pricing was the same as, if not more expensive than chain hotels near by. BEWARE!

I’ve never written a review.... but this hotel was rough. Dirty. Dusty. The bathroom ceiling looked like it was about to cave in, and then in the morning when guest in the room above us showered, it POURED in our bathroom all over the floor. The carpet was gross. There was grass in the bed. Mattresses not comfortable.

I am not a very picky customer but this was way to much. As soon as we walked in the room a foul smells hits you. Then when you walk around, the carpet is full of stains every where, the bathtub is absolutely disgusting (the curtain is completely black and gross at the bottom) and the overall room is just terrible. I will never stay there again.

Me and my wife uncovered bugs in the room at night when we are about to go to bed. There are big and small ones, visible on the wall and bed. Smell of dog when we stepped into the room. We informed the office immediately and rush to switch out the another room at night. Body feels itchy and terrible experience.

Checked into room and did a bed inspection and immediately saw a bed bug when I ran out the door the guys from the office were standing outside and asked how the room was. I explained that I will not be staying fur to the fact I saw bugs on the mattress. The guy played dumb and offered a room next door and I requested my money back. They did provide a refund and said they will look "maybe tomorrow" for the bugs.

The room was so-so. About what I expect from the lowest price choice. But the room I booked was advertised as having a shower OR tub. Mine only had a shower. When I went to see if I could get a room with a tub I was told it would be more. The advertising needs to change. Also, I couldn't figure out the A/C for the longest time. It's very hot in Redding. I finally found it way high up a window behind an alcove. I was able to stand on my camp chair that I brought along to turn it on high. A little strange. I don't know that I'd do this one again. There are other choices.

No frills, decent place. Nice proprietor. The room wasn't ready when I arrived and he worked quickly to get towels and bedding in place. Walked me to my room to show me the quirky electricals, which was probably good because it would have taken me a while to figure out the light switch had to be on by the door in order for the TV to work. Just needed a cheap room for a night and it fit the bill. Would stay again when travelling thru town.
