I swapped rooms from what I booked to help the motel out. Have not received a refund for the price difference of the room. Room was old, cold and run down, ceiling was falling apart. Photos on website do not match this room.

This is a neat property. The 2 bedroom apartment was spacious and clean and the bed very comfortable.
The bathroom needs an upgrade.
