Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The motel room was clean and had a well kept bathroom and kitchenette, as well as small working freezer and fridge. Also dog friendly was a big plus. Only complaints would be we forgot shampoo and their were no small courtesy shampoo or soap that are usually in motels, and there were no usb plugs, but other than that was a good value.

A work in progress. The room was clean and comfortable. It appears that updates are in process, with a new heater/AC unit, newer flooring that was bubbled near the kitchenette area, missing trim and a patched area where the old A/C unit used to be. The toilet seat was not attached properly and would slide if you shifted your weight at all. A decent place to stay if price and cleanliness are your primary concerns.

Great Service

Outside of property is a little rough. The inside has a nice kitchen with Fridge and microwave. Rooms are clean. Small TV. Its better than a motel 8. Strange check in. Either call a number or check in at the Moble Restaraunt. Its a truck stop with really good food. There is a couple of mini marts close. We stayed there 2 days. If you want a clean place to stay it's for you. If you want a 5 star hotel then look eleswhere so you won't be dissapointed. Great bargain for the money.
