Cedar Grove Motel

U get what u pay for, in this case 50.00. Checking in went smooth, we were in room 1 (or should i call it a shed)?. Descent size closet, full size bed, frig (which was unplugged) desk, radiator (we couldn’t control the heat) /​air conditioner but no microwave nor coffee maker. Bathroom was in descent shape, shower stall only. Bed was hard and uncomfortable, pillows were flat, linen had strange red smears on it and flannel blanket had a cigarette hole. The ceiling was literally outdoor paneling (sofet i think its called) there is a Sheetz right across the street if needed.

My Girlfriend and I were looking for an out of town escape on a budget. After consulting a few internet locations we determined this would be a moderate bet. We were wrong.
#1 — I will not say it was dirty, but the sheets are probably from 1971 with cigarette burns to match. The room smelled of pine sol galore! there were mirrors all over the place, and they were taped up using what I assume to be the best scotch tape you can buy. If you do happen to not heed this warning and stay here. Don’t open the drawers in the dressers.
#2 — Safety — NOT SAFE. Around 3am a car with a sound system so loud pulled up I thought the windows were going to come out. A fight ensued in the parking lot and a person was thrown into our door. I quickly barricaded us in the room. Around 4am the fighting stopped the car left and we began to pack up to leave. As we were leaving we were approached by another car that slowly pulled up and rolled down it’s windows. When I made it apparent I may have been from out of town but I was not unarmed he just drove by.
Pay the extra money and stay at a known hotel. I’ve held a concealed carry for 3 years and this was the first moment I truly thought I was going to need to use it.
