Review of El Ray Motel 2*

First of all let me say I'm up in there air about my feelings of this place. I think for the price it was pretty decent. But, truth be told I have a lot negative to say about our time here. Yes this is long but please read it. First the family who owns the place was very nice and personable with us, but at the same time I was a bit annoyed at the service. The biggest reason we decided to stay here, other than price, was the kitchenette in the room so we could cook for ourselves and spend our money on more fun things. When we first got to the room one of the stove tops wasn't working. I went to the office and she said, Oh ok my husband will have to take a look at it he's in Atlantic city just make due till he gets back. Around 9 I happen to notice a man walking around that might be her husband I had to ask him for help and he had no idea there was an issue. Then, he made a joke about paying him 5 bucks to fix it. Uh no it should have worked when we got here, and you should have fixed as soon as you got back, and why would I tip you for something that should have worked in the first place. Next was the issue with signing in. They were so strict. Had to be over 25 which we are. We were made to ware a bracelet to prove we belong here. For a week damn thing was so nasty by day two. Oh and by the way no one else at the hotel was told to ware one. Especially not the people under the age of 25 staying there. Oh and we were told we could not have any visitors even if they were not spending the night. Moving on from that, the place was a mess. There was dried soap stuck to the shower wall. The table in the bedroom was falling apart. It was so wobbly I couldn't put a glass on it. When we asked the maid to come she didn't clean anything. All she did was make the bed, with our dirty sheets mind you, and take out the trash. Also the last night I realized someones dirty socks were on top of the TV cabinet. Lovely… All this said it's hard to complain concidering the price. You get what you pay for, but the idea of dirty sheets couldn't leave my mind.
