Three people were arrested on drug charges after authorities conducted an undercover operation at Bradley Inn on Thursday.
In a separate incident on Aug. 31, police arrested a man and woman for allegedly robbing a person with a machete.
The police department said they also made numerous arrests at the motel about a year ago.
"Unfortunately, this location has persisted in maintaining a high level of criminal activity and calls for service to the WLPD," the police department said in a statement.
The investigation remains ongoing.
