We arrived and were given the wrong

Good place to stay for an old hotel that was modernized. Hence the name of the hotel. Great, No frills, kind of place for the price.

After checking in (2 rooms), we found one room was smelly, had water damage, and questionable stains on the carpet. The second room had a mysterious powder (likely meth) on one bed and a blood stain on the second. When I complained, “housekeeping” (who seemingly lived at the property) came to the room and stripped the beds throwing the powder on the floor saying it was “just salt” and then said “there’s going to be some stains”… This motel, while only a block from the main strip, was surrounded by homeless people openly doing drug deals in the parking lots as we left. We also noted likely sex workers whom were walking the floors looking for business. My rate was “no refundable”, guess I know why now… but I refused to stay there with my kids. I’m writing this review in hopes it prevents others from the same experience or worse. It’s disgusting and unsafe. Don’t do it!

Would highly recommend against any families staying at this property. They advertise as family friendly/welcoming, however if you are not interested in gang members, homeless people wandering around, and crime in the alley across the street then avoid this place at all costs.

Great location. Friendly staff and decent amount of space for a room.

Liked the motel staff. They were very helpful the motel was close to most of the activities that we were interested in
-
The staff, price and the location were excellent

You get what you pay for, so I’m keeping that in mind as I write this. I didn’t feel very safe there, some people lingering outside. It wasn’t clean in the room, a mysterious spill on the floor and pee on the toilet. Pillows were the worst ever, only about an inch thick. No extra pillows either. Beds were uncomfortable. However, the check in staff was friendly. Would never return.

A bit seedy - quite a few late night/wee morning hours noisy groups in the parking area hanging out - but for the price somewhat expected - staff friendly and welcoming.

Clean easy to find friendly staff LOTS of late night activity

We were not given the room booked online. The room had a broken bathroom door and the door knob did not lock. The AC didnt work. They offered to move us to another room but someone else came into the office saying their AC was also not working so we decided to cancel our stay and go somewhere else.
-
Too many tweekers and low lifes. There seemed to be a lot of vehicles in the parking lot that were gone the next morning suggesting partying and drug use. The people next to us were still up and hanging out yakking with the door open at 0300. suggesting amphetamine use. This activity seems to be rampant everywhere anymore at these downtown motels. Had to wash my feet as the floor was so dirty. I'll just stay elsewhere next time so we don't have to deal with this crap.

The pictures are not a good representation of the actual property. When we arrived it was terrible. We didn't even stay the night because we were so incredibly disappointed that we immediately booked a different hotel.
-
The location and price were good. The decor was nice. There were drain flies in the room. It sounded like they were doing construction in the room above us. The bed was extremely soft, and the pillows were flat. The bathroom tile looked like someone had done a DIY job, and this was their first time trying to work with tile.
-
The staff are awesome! Everyone I had interacted with was very polite and helpful. The room itself was, different. Windows next to the door allowed easy view into room,no curtains or blinds. I had to use a box to cover them. Several homeless people were on the property and I had one outside my door the 1st evening. I wasn't overly concerned for my well being, I would not recommend to single women or families.

We couldn’t stay there because of a fentanyl finding in our room

We couldn’t stay there because...

Good budget find and stay.

Avoid at ALL costs. Don't subject yourself to the unsafe feeling and dirtiness of "Modern Motel". Even at a discount, it was a rip off. You couldn't pay me to stay here.
