Blue Mountain Motel

This is a run-down, 1950 motel. The issues with this motel could be fixed, but the only effort they made is to add flat-screen tv's and DirecTV. When the room was re-painted, over-painting was not cleaned up. The toilet, sink, and shower are perfect for a person 5 ft tall. The shower pan needs to be painted. The sink has a permanent rust stain around the drain. The towel rack fell off the wall when we touched it. Both the bathroom and front door stick. The toilet leaks so there is standing water around it. Bring your own pillows - those supplied are under-filled. The bed may be fine for some, but way too soft for us. Most of the rooms are occupied with full-time residents. There are no cups for water, and the bottle of water promised in the ad is missing. There is a coffee pot in the office, but no a.m. coffee. In short, DO NOT book a room at this motel. You will be disappointed, unless price is #1 for you.

It was just OK. No drinking cup of any kind. No Kleenex. The room was pretty clean and the bed was OK. Trucks on Hwy 12 do pass by but if the AC is running or if heating I probably would not notice. I do wonder why they don't fix little inexpensive things that are wrong. The door to the room would not latch -- period. I can tell from the scuffs on the inside people have been kicking at it to get the lock to line up. I found I could finally do so by leaning heavily outward on the door. Surely mgmt knows about this, since the door won't really close every time they make up the room. So get out a file or a screw driver and fix it. The room could really use painting, which is not a great capital expenditure. AC was on and curtains were open when I got there. That was good. But it would take 1 minute or less to actually clean the glass on the window so it wasn't a smeary mess. The room has been updated some, with laminate flooring.
