Stingy with supplies
This motel is simply STINGY. There's no coffee or tea service in the rooms. There was no shampoo, just 3 tiny bars of soap. They Kleenex dispenser was empty. There were no cups. The towels were ancient and thin and the bathmat was stained.
There's a single coffee pot in the office but when I left at 7:10 a.m. and peeked in the office, it appeared closed.
Thankfully I'd been camping so I had both toilet paper and a gas camp cook stove in my car which I used in my room. I'm sure that would freak them out to know, but they left me no choice.
The sheet was on sideways -- I think it was a queen sheet on the king bed so it had to go sideways. The room was clean but it felt beat-up: pieces of molding had been chipped out, that sort of thing. The toilet and tub are 1960s-circa pink, which I find whimsical in a good way, and the toilet seat was newish, thankfully. But flushing the toilet required holding the handle down for at least 30 seconds. The water this old toilet is wasting could pay for an in-room coffee maker.
On the positive side: the bed was comfy. The frig was larger than many hotel frigs. The microwave worked well. The hot water was sufficient to not only shower but take a bath immediately afterward. (I'd been backpacking and needed a good soak, but first needed to get clean.)
I'm an Airbnb host so know how inexpensive it is to provide a coffee maker and some coffee and teas in a room. Ditto spare TP. The Royal Motor Inn was $89 plus tax ( $98), so was the least-spendy motel in town. I was exhausted so knew I'd sleep like a rock anywhere, so I chose this by price. For $100, they should supply spare TP, shampoo, cups, a $30 coffee maker, and slightly nicer towels.
