Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“This place isnt too bad they allow you to have your pets no matter how many. The price isnt that bad. You have to take into consideration that its the cheapest rooms around before you judge the place or the people. The staff will fix anything if you pay your room rent and let them know whats up. You get what you pay for you wanted the cheapest and so do yhe drug addicts so youre gonna be surrounded by drug activity. Hell its everywhere now all these reviews talking about drug activity when drug activity is everywhere no matter what. Dont complain if you ainy gonna try to fix anything”
“This motel has changed. We do not allow drugs and ladies of the night here. If you're planning to come here and do these things I will provide you with a ride out with Burke County Sheriff's. We will not bend the rules like has been done in the past. Our rates will slowly change but for the moment til remodeling is complete the nightly rate is $45 with $10 deposit weekly : $200 with $50 deposit kitchen $250 with $50 deposit Pets are $50 nonrefundable deposit per pet.”
“Not here for a review. I’m trying to see who knows how much it is for 2 nights. I call the number but it’s not working and it doesn’t give pricing.”
