it was all good except that the safety lights shone in our windows majorly. And there didn't seem to be an "auto on" function for the a/c fan. the rest was good, all as expected (we've stayed there before)

Disliked: Amenities
i like that it is centrally located. but i don’t like that they always get the towels for laundry but without automatically replacing it. we have to wait for them to finish the laundry. so if we need a towel, we need to wait. also we cannot get extra towels. there is also no microwave in the rooms making it inconvenient to go to the office to heat up food.
This property is smelly, dirty, and not worth the price. Our room smelled like cigarettes, the air conditioner was extremely noisy and didn’t work that well, the bathroom was extremely dangerous and slippery when wet, there were cigarette burn holes in our bedding, the curtains did not close all the way, there was crud around the outlets and ceiling fixtures, the room was dark and dingy. There were holes in the furniture and we were overall creeped out by the entire experience. The inn accepted pets but the fee was not disclosed until check in. For the price I paid I would have stayed elsewhere

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very helpful with check-in . Room nice and staff was wonderful. Felt safe there and will stay there again.
The location was quiet. Some of the amenities did not work (television, bathroom sink handle, shower door). If the hotel could invest in some repairs and updates that would be great because $120 per night is a lot of money and customers want value for their money.
Check in was weird had to ring for attendant to come to window and wait then they let you in office. Paperwork on room they gave me barely readable. WiFi did not work. Only 1/4 of a roll of toilet paper in room. Was clean low noise for how full the hotel was. Only street noise was a police car passing sometimes.
Very dirty. Fan for heat and air. Did not work. There was no smoke detector. The remote control for tv didnt work either, but he did go get anthrr remote that worked
I make many a one-night stops on my way to resort vacations and never flinch at cheap, small motels. But I will never stay at Knight's Motel again.
Salem is a beautiful city and this motel is less than 2 miles from the state Capitol. The parking lot is easy to access. But the moment you enters the lot, you realize that it is a rundown property. The iron-bar protected office setting seems to suggest that the location is less than safe. Then, I was overwhelmed by the stale odor when I entered the room, suggesting lack of maintenance and poor cleaning. Poor cleaning is also evident when I inspect the shower room. I tried to touch as few things as possible during my short stay, including limiting contact with sink faucet. No way will I use any appliance in the room. The rooms do not have central heating/cooling. The in-room unit is very loud. Good thing that I was exhausted after a long drive the noise did not bother me too much.
In short, do not choose Knight's Motel even if it is cheap. I'd rather stay at Motel 6.
I liked that it was affordable as I am on a budget.
I did not like that there were packets for coffee and cups, but no coffe pot to brew it in. I also asked for an iron to be brought to my room. I checked in a 6:30. It's now 10:00 and I have not received it yet.

Staff was polite but lots of safety precautions in place make it difficult to communicate. The sheets were dirty. The doors and walls were dirty. Small shower hole. Dirty towels. If they were clean, they were stained.

Not bad. But the handle for the water faucet was falling off. Didn’t bother to refill the toilet paper at all. A/C is hard to use. The place smelled musty. Shower was so small and moldy.
People are nice. It was perfect location for what I needed. The rest I didn’t pay for a 5 star what do you expect.
