This was, by far, the absolute worst motel I’ve ever stayed in!
We were catfished! The listing pictures promised very basic, yet clean bedding, facilities, and an orderly lobby.
We got anything but.
First of all, the location was in the GPS wrong and, according to a local, it was a known issue that many tourists are navigated to the wrong motel.
Once we finally arrived, the parking lot was giving mad trap house vibes. Most of the signs outside of the lobby building were handwritten on paper or cardboard. Lots of sketch looking people loitering, smoking, and/or side-eying.
Inside, the floors/carpeting seemed as though they hadn’t been cleaned in months. Crumbs, trash, debris, and deep, dark/reddish brown stains everywhere, flies buzzing around the check-in desk. The only smells penetrating the hot, stale indoor air were smoke, faint BO, piss, and dog; just kept “circulating” between those.
The clerk was nice enough. Made conversation and helped with everything we needed.
