The front deck person was nice. The bedspread looked as if somebody had used it as a rag while changing their oil. The bathroom was filthy. No cups in the room. I am convinced that the motel is called The Puffin Inn is because of the cigarette butts in the hallways. There were transients in front of of motel day and night. I don not recommend this motel.

My room was not ready when I arrived at 430pm and I had to wait an hour before I could move into the room. When I got to the room it was still not cleaned from the previous occupant
