Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is dirty. The room has a strong fish smell. No shampoo, no hair dryer, no coffee maker in room. Very very basic. Only bed and towels and bathroom exhausted fan didn't work. We stayed two nights. The second night, we found a 3 inch long worm on the bathroom floor twisted around. It's so disgusting. And I talked to the front desk, the lady answered me "it's a budget motel, what do you expect?" We will never ever stay this place again.
