They are working hard on improving the property
Pros:
-Very friendly staff
-hard working crew
-safe parking
-hot coffee in main area of office
-comfy beds for the price you're paying
-working hard to improve themselves
-colleagues report they were way better than their neighbor motel on the bed feel.
Cons:
-soap/body washes etc terrible
-towels/washcloths really rough and itchy
-door I stayed in did not have any extra latches and there was a clear gap in the bottom of the door that I could see outside
-spiders, I can normally handle it but there were lots of spiders in the covers and around that I had to chase out. Multiple days. And I know I saw them cleaning their butts off! :)
Manager and personnel were very friendly and helpful

We have stayed at Western Motel several times over the years, as it is a convenient spot to stay when making a trip to the Okefenokee Swamp. Motel/hotel lodgings are scarce in Folkston, but this motel has always been clean and comfortable, even though dated. If you just need working TV, lights, shower, good towels and a comfortable bed, you should be good to go here.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff courteous, efficient & knowledgeable. Rate and value were consistent. Would stay there again
The hotel is basic but adequate for the price. Don't count on a good wifi connection. Will stay there again for my next quick visit to the Okefenokee Swamp. The young man at the front desk was exceptionally helpful and cheerful.
