Staff was polite but lots of safety precautions in place make it difficult to communicate. The sheets were dirty. The doors and walls were dirty. Small shower hole. Dirty towels. If they were clean, they were stained.

I liked that it was affordable as I am on a budget.
I did not like that there were packets for coffee and cups, but no coffe pot to brew it in. I also asked for an iron to be brought to my room. I checked in a 6:30. It's now 10:00 and I have not received it yet.

Doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's very comfortable on the inside. Walking distance to great restaurants, and a block away from one of the cheapest gas stations in Salem. I will stay again the next time I'm in town.

I make many a one-night stops on my way to resort vacations and never flinch at cheap, small motels. But I will never stay at Knight's Motel again.
Salem is a beautiful city and this motel is less than 2 miles from the state Capitol. The parking lot is easy to access. But the moment you enters the lot, you realize that it is a rundown property. The iron-bar protected office setting seems to suggest that the location is less than safe. Then, I was overwhelmed by the stale odor when I entered the room, suggesting lack of maintenance and poor cleaning. Poor cleaning is also evident when I inspect the shower room. I tried to touch as few things as possible during my short stay, including limiting contact with sink faucet. No way will I use any appliance in the room. The rooms do not have central heating/cooling. The in-room unit is very loud. Good thing that I was exhausted after a long drive the noise did not bother me too much.
In short, do not choose Knight's Motel even if it is cheap. I'd rather stay at Motel 6.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Overal: 3/5
You get what you pay for here. The property is a bit older but it was quiet and the staff was helpful. Plenty of parking. Not all the rooms have the same quality amenities or condition. Nice bathroom and shower.

Low budget motel in need of some remodeling
The hotel could be very cute with some remodeling. The motel seems to cater to pretty sketchy clientele (there was a cop talking to a guest in the parking lot for an hour the night I arrived). The fact that they handle all transactions through a window instead of in the lobby doesn’t help matters. You get what you pay for though, I guess.
