スターダスト モーテル レディング(Stardust Motel)

Overall it’s so so, but very noisy, I can hear the noise from road through the wall the whole night, looks like no insulation at all. There is an AC on that wall, also possible that they didn’t seal it completely.

The only thing I liked about this hotel was that it had vacancies.

Amenities provided were good: coffee pot, refrigerator, microwave, toiletries. The bed was clean and comfortable, the water in the shower was hot and had good water pressure, the wifi was good, and the air conditioner worked well.

I really do not know where to start. This is the filthiest and most unwelcoming motel I have ever stayed in and I have been traveling the US for a while. It all started with the check-in. I arrived in the early morning at 3 am, which is why I had emailed the motel beforehand to make sure a check-in was still possible in the middle of the night. They responded that it should be fine. So far, so good. When I actually arrived, however, the person (manager?) at the night window told me that he had not gotten any reservation from me and that there were no vacancies. I told him I had booked my stay on *********** and he kept neglecting to know anything about it. He did not even want to see my booking confirmation or listen to what I was saying. Just when I was about to give up and was coming to terms with spending the night on a park bench (as a 21-year-old female traveling alone with two heavy pieces of luggage and no car), another man showed up in the office and told me he HAD gotten my reservation. After the initial shock was over, the next one followed when I unlocked my room. It smelled like nicotine, the armchair in the corner was not even good enough for the garbage, literally everything in the room was stained or broken. The AC (yes, there is one!) was so loud that it was nearly impossible to sleep while it was on. Even getting to my room made me feel unsafe with a couple of shady people hanging around the motel spitting on the ground and glaring at me. In sum, the pricing is ridiculously high for a motel that YOU should be paid to stay in. I would have moved to a different motel in the blink of an eye if there had been any vacancies.
