Cotton Valley Motel

I do hate to give negative reviews but I'll try to be objective. It was a basic room; only one trash can in the bathroom, cigarette burns on the bed cover, lots of dust and bottle caps and stuff under the beds. Other than that fairly clean. The AC system is very effective but LOUD. I mean like sleeping next to a diesel truck with the motor running. We travel with earplugs so even though I could hear it, I slept fairly well the first night. The wife, not so lucky. Even with her special earplugs she got very little sleep. Considering the hotel is next to a gas station, I10 is close by and the road by the hotel is traveled by the people from the small towns around to access I10, it was fairly quiet, the first night. You check in at a restaurant and the staff there is very friendly, however, they do everything by hand so its slower than most places. Big omen. The second day we worked long and hard and were exhausted. Woke up around 4 and the AC did keep me up. Then around 6, I think there were heavy trucks in the parking lot, very noisy. Finally went to sleep but at 730 woke up to very loud knocks at the door. The cleaning lady accused us of not having paid for the second night. I told her we had. She demanded to see our receipt so she could take a picture and send it to her boss lady. Again she said we had only paid for one night.When I produced the receipt, she said, oh you paid on line? I said yes, PREPAID! So she took the picture, apologized and left. We won't stay here again

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They are located in a great area with plenty of access to purchase necessities for if you're staying for awhile.

Great place to stay for weekend great mexican restaurant next door. PERFECT PLACE
