4 stars is appropriate given the price. It’s an older motel with limited updates. No frills. But the bed and bathroom are clean, so I feel like it’s worth the price. I extensively checked the bed and sheets and feel it’s clean. There is a slight cigarette odor but it isn’t too strong. If you’re picky, don’t stay here. If you want a good bargain on a minimal place to sleep for the night that isn’t dirty, this will do. To earn 5 stars, get rid of the cigarette smell, fix there non working lights. The lights on either side of the bed were non functional. Also, the battery was taken out of the smoke detector.
