The bathroom had blank spots in the shower and the shower head has a crack in it so water everywhere. The floors hadn't been swept and the screen in the window was broken so had to keep window closed to keep more bugs out. The tv was broken or first night but the manager was so kind and replaced it for our second night. Wifi want that great as it kept kicking is off. We also had someone knocking on our door both nights at 3:45am the first night and at 1:45 the second night.
The only thing that made it worth while was the manager who was so kind to us and the fact our dog was very welcomed.

Interesting
This particular motel is actually for sale, and its condition is definitely on a downward trajectory. It is in dire need of deep cleaning and maintenance upgrades.
The owner was friendly, as well as other staff, and guests, but the overall quality of the building was poor.
They have a restaurant advertised on the website, but is no longer functioning.
They do have a bar, but we do not drink alcohol and never patronized the facility.
It was quiet, which we appreciated, and the air conditioner was working, thank goodness. It ran no stop the whole time we were there. The outside temperature was high, and our room faced south.
The quality of the linens was average, but the pillows themselves were in dire need of cleaning, or replacing. The curtains over the windows sufficed, but again, needed cleaning and repair. The carpet also needed to be cleaned.
The towels provided were of good quality.
There was only one small mirror in bathroom, which was disappointing. We were in the area for a wedding, but were unable to view ourselves in a full length mirror. I would have appreciated one in the room.
The room itself was a good size, so no complaints there.
There is no elevator and our room was on the second floor.
My husband and I each had to make two trips up and down the stairs, to unload our belongings, and then again when we vacated. The stairs to the second floor were curved and carpeted, extremely dirty, and the step depth was not adequate for safety reasons.

The Villagers Innis a diamond in the rough. Although the property is older it has a cozy homelike feel to it. Mary, the proprietor, is very friendly and accommodating and the stay was very nice overall! One the highlights is the mascot Mei Mei, a friendly black Cat that comes to great you at the door.
I like the Villageers Inn because it is affordable, quiet and welcoming.

Well what can I say… you get what you pay for. The guy who owns the place is a friendly person. The whole property is very run down. The hallway smells terrible. The AC didn’t work the bed was terrible but at least the sheets were clean and comfy
